By Ifiokabasi Abia

In a deliberate move to spotlight indigenous enterprise and encourage homegrown innovation, the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ), Akwa Ibom State Council, undertook a facility tour of the Erojim Shoe and Garment Factory, a rising name in Nigeria’s creative and manufacturing landscape.

Welcoming the journalists, the General Manager of Erojim Design, Mrs. Lucy Ejelonu, revealed that the company, though just over one year in existence, has carved a niche for itself by prioritising quality, excellence, and professionalism in every stage of production. She described the journey so far as one driven by passion, resilience, and an unwavering belief in Nigerian-made products.

Mrs. Ejelonu stressed that Erojim Design’s vision goes far beyond profit-making, noting that the company is deeply committed to giving back to society. According to her, Erojim Design has donated more than 1,000 pairs of shoes to public schools across Akwa Ibom State through the Ministry of Education, in addition to 500 pairs of shoes presented to Esteem School, Uyo, as part of efforts to support education and improve the welfare of young learners.

Leading the NUJ delegation, the Team Lead of the NUJ Akwa Ibom State Council, Comrade Michael Udofa, expressed admiration for the level of technology, skilled manpower, and the humanitarian spirit embedded in the operations of the factory. He described the facility as a powerful testament to what Nigerian ingenuity can achieve when creativity is matched with commitment and discipline.

Comrade Udofa particularly commended Mrs. Ejelonu for her consistency in delivering quality products within stipulated timelines, noting that Erojim Design stands firm on standards and excellence without compromising professionalism. He further encouraged the company to consider establishing a factory in Akwa Ibom State, a move he said would boost employment, stimulate industrial growth, and strengthen the state’s economy.

The visit concluded with a renewed call for sustained collaboration between the media and local manufacturers as a pathway to economic development, job creation, and the promotion of made-in-Nigeria goods.

A major highlight of the tour was the inspection of Erojim Design’s modern machines, state-of-the-art equipment, and production materials, which offered the journalists firsthand insight into the craftsmanship and innovation behind the brand.

The NUJ delegations are : Comrade Michael Udofa, Leader of the delegation. Comrade Uwem Eko; Comrade Ubong Etetor, Comrade Kendi Jumbo; Comrade Ubong and Comrade IfiokAbasi Abia.
