Vice President Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang has announced that preparations for the rollout of the government’s flagship Women’s Development Bank are at an advanced stage.
Speaking at the 65th End-of-Year Gathering and General Meeting of the Greater Accra Markets Association (GAMA), she revealed that a two-day workshop has been convened to finalise key implementation strategies for the initiative.
“Women are not lazy, it is help that we need. Every major policy needs appropriate preparation and consultation, so it thrives,” she said.
Prof. Opoku-Agyemang noted that the Women’s Development Bank is expected to provide targeted financial support for women, particularly those in trading and small-scale enterprises.
She also appealed to market leaders and traders to support efforts to keep market centres clean, stressing that sanitation remains critical in reducing flooding, especially during the rainy season.
