Good day Flourish Africa. I am a female entrepreneur. My business is located in a border town called Karu, which is between Abuja and Nasarawa state. We are very close to the FCT and most at times, we consider ourselves as Abuja residents. My question is that, am I eligible for the loan considering the fact that one’s business must be domicile in Lagos, Port Harcourt or Abuja? Can I apply for the grant?
