Ummmmh
am impress, you are coming out strong, bless her!
Michelle went into shoe making business six years after searching for a job everywhere
she could, no connection but she tried but nobody seems to want to employ her.
Michelle Ekure, from Delta
State is a graduate of International Studies and Diplomacy from the University
of Benin.
"My inspiration is
from God, I never knew I would be a shoemaker. I graduated from the University
six years ago, after which I looked for for job, but to know avail," she
said in an interview with Lukmon of Wazobia Global Times USA.
"At sometimes I got
employed by a company in Lagos, but the boss was owing too much so I left. On
how it started, there is this other company I buy sandals in Lagos and resell.
They sell nice shoes, so one day I thought to myself that I can tell this
people to make sandals for me with my label, so I approached them and they said
yes. That was how I got my first set of shoes. Then a friend introduced me to a
guy that makes shoes. I watch him make shoes one day and I was amazed then I
asked him to teach me and he did."
Michele's makes around 50
pairs of shoes a week and has 6 apprentices working for her. Her advice for
young ladies still looking for jobs:
"I always tell people
I come in contact with that are looking for job to start something, anything
you are good at can bring money to you or just learn a trade.
MICHELLE!!! GOOD OF YOU.WELL DONE
