The Abia state Governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu has handed over the machines procured for the Automated shoe factory to Chinese Engineers for onward installation at the Enyimba Automated Shoe Company.
According to Sam Hart, who is the Project Co-Facilitator, the handing over was performed today, Tuesday, November 26, 2019 at Aba.
He said “the installation process will take one month and the Chinese Engineers will be in Aba until installation is complete and production has begun in earnest. They will also ensure that the Aba Shoemakers fully understand the process before they return to China.”
He added that “the 30 Shoemakers the Governor sent to China to learn the use of the machines are also on ground to work with the Engineers from China as they will form the nucleus of the workforce of the shoe factory upon commencement of production.”
