The Transition Committee Chairman of Mkpat Enin Local Government Area, Lady Mercy Bassey has expressed her administration’s readiness to revamp the moribund shoe factory owned by the local government council.

The council, while expressing optimism that the factory will be capable of providing jobs for already skilled youths of the area as well as undertake training of others, said that when revamped, the factory will be operated on the public-private partnership.
Hon Bassey, who was accompanied by private investor and shoe manufacturer, Mr Columbus Peters, assured that when the factory is up and running again, it will be producing both children and adult shoes.

While recalling how he helped in the setting up of the factory during the administration of Hon Ubong Ekefre, Mr Peters stated that the factory would have expanded massively if it was still functioning till today and expressed his readiness to partner the current administration in revamping it.
