We are excited to announce the launch of the Nasara–AKWE Student Entrepreneurship Empowerment Programme (NASEEP), an initiative born from a strategic partnership between the Nasara Foundation and the Association of Kebbi Women Entrepreneurs (AKWE).
Speaking at the National Women Entrepreneurship Festival held on February 8-9, 2025, at Haliru Abdu Stadium, the CEO of Nasara Foundation, Hajiya Bilkisu Muhammad Nasir, emphasized that the program is designed to equip secondary school girls across Kebbi State with entrepreneurial skills, financial literacy, and business development knowledge.
According to Hajiya Bilkisu:
“At Nasara Foundation, we are committed to developing the girl-child. Through our partnership with AKWE, we will provide training, mentorship, and support to young girls, enabling them to build sustainable business ventures. We believe that NASEEP will empower them to become self-reliant, innovative, and job creators rather than job seekers.”
The President of AKWE, Maryam Bello Bala, commended the Founder of Nasara Foundation, Her Excellency, Hajiya Zainab Nasare Nasir Idris, for her unwavering support.
“The Founder of Nasara Foundation has always been a strong pillar for our association. We are confident that this partnership is a significant step forward. Together, we are laying a solid foundation for the future of the girl-child in Kebbi State.”
With NASEEP, Nasara Foundation and AKWE are strengthening efforts to foster economic empowerment and entrepreneurship among young girls, ensuring they have the skills and opportunities to thrive.
