This is good,capacity building is key to sustainable development and growth, the challenge is how to acquire a loan as a small scale business person, since collateral is demanded. Loan acquirements terms aught to look at the general view of many people’s society standing. Otherwise we commend the noble gesture of conducting a training for the loans recipients, it is a good thing and must continue.
