Nigerians Hail Ayade Over Garment Factory
A cross section of Nigerians who recently patronised the Cross River State Garment Factory have lauded the Governor, Prof. Ben Ayade for the initiative and quality of garments produced by the factory, following the commencement of public sale of wears from the factory.
Excited by the development, Nigerians and organisations from different parts of the country, including students, schools and churches, have been trooping to the factory in droves to buy garments.
One of such patrons is Faith Abou, a 23 year old student of the University of Calabar.
“As a fashion enthusiast, I strongly commend the quality of garments produced
from this Factory while also appreciating Gov Ben Ayade for the initiative. This facility no doubt serves as an employment poll for many Cross Riverians”.
“I just saw an advertisement that there will be sales today and I said let me pick some materials for myself. Honestly, what I picked is wonderful.
I like the quality as I look at it and the price is very fantastic and I love it very well. If they continue with this, I think the price of clothes will drop in the open market”.
Also speaking, Jane Efiok said the essence of the factory was to reduce the cost of clothes and materials in the market and she was
impressed that the dream of the Governor has been realised.
According to her, “I just came here to pick some boxers, Yes I have checked the quality and it is okay; the price too is very fair. The essence of this fare is to get something quality with minimal cost and that is what the government has tried to achieve, and I am highly impressed with what I have seen here”.
Another buyer, Samson Chukwueze, who sells clothes at the popular Watt Market, described the shirt he got from the factory as the best he had and promised to be buying in wholesale quantity for his business.
“The quality is Superb, the many others who are into this business, we will not be going to Aba again because from next month I’ll be buying things in wholesale quantity for my business,” he said.
costing outside here is very affordable, the best among any shirt I had bought in time past. I actually sell clothes myself and I can tell you that Governor Ayade has done a brilliant job here. “For me and many others who are into this business, we will not be going to Aba again because from next month I’ll be buying things in wholesale quantity for my business,” he said.
said.
Chukwueze added that “With the recent ban on importation of textile, one can rightly say that in no distant time, the garment factory will serve as a huge market not for people residing in Cross River only, but the entire South-South region and South-East region.”
