The sampling method used was proportionate stratified sampling for data collection. Descriptive and multiple regression analysis were used to analyze the data. The findings reveal that the microcredit program is significantly related to women-owned micro enterprises performance. Entrepreneurial factors have significant positive relationships with womenowned micro enterprises performance. However, factors of religious values and human capital had no significant negative relationship with performance.
