 Vice President Professor Yamio Shibajo says the African Development Bank has agreed to support micro, small, and medium-enterprise MSMEs, especially technology-based ones, with $500 million in Nigeria. Shibajo disclosed this on Sunday at the 34th inaugural lecture of the Babcock University, Elisha Remo, Oregon State. The institution's 33rd inaugural lecture was delivered by Oduyoye, Professor of Business Administration. The title of the lecture is, From Small Business to Big Business, A Future Was Little Hope. The vice president said that one of the things the federal government did with small business during the COVID-19 pandemic and afterwards was the introduction of the MSME's survival fund. According to him, support for small businesses must continue as they are the future of the country. He said that the support given to MSMEs had brought hope, jobs, and opportunities. Shibajo also commended the 7th day Adventist Church for the investment it had made in education.
