According to the municipal head of the centre Mr. Isaac Oppong, the 3 day exercise is aimed at empowering women by equipping them with alternative skills to enhance their productive capacities so as to improve their economic and social well-being.

He said this was the first of four training programmes that will also comprise: bridal decoration, beads making and modern hairdressing.

The Atebubu-Amantin municipal assembly is sponsoring the training programmes for all interested females at a total cost of GH?12,000.00 with the objective of alleviating poverty in the municipality.

Some beneficiaries expressed their gratitude to government and the assembly for the opportunity which they hoped will go a long way to improve their lot.
