According to CEO Dr. Godwin Nwabunka, the event was designed to recognize dedication and provide practical help to women micro-entrepreneurs. “Grooming Splash is one of the ways we support women. We also run scholarship schemes for their children and grants for undergraduate and postgraduate students,” he explained.
