Over 100 traders and business owners at Makola in Accra have lauded telecom giant, Vodafone Ghana for organising the second edition of its unique capacity-building programme at Knutsford University to equip them with business and digital skills.

Speaking on the initiative, Comfort Nyarko, a participant described the programme as a game-changer in terms of boosting her business skills.

She said, “Vodafone Ghana has introduced a great initiative. We are grateful to them for equipping us with much needed and life-long knowledge on entrepreneurship. The programme has been very helpful. I have learnt a lot to help my business. They made digital skills learning easier. We were given the opportunity to ask questions on Vodafone Cash, mobility solutions, apps, online tools, among others, that will take our businesses to the next level. We are even more grateful that the programme was delivered in a local language. We look forward to experiencing an exciting future with them.”

Commenting on the initiative, Alfred Nkrow, Acting Head of Vodafone Business said:
