President Goodluck Jonathan Launches Youth Entrepreneurship Online Portal

As part of efforts to redefine and support the empowerment and employment of young men and women, President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday launched a broad-based public private partnership called the Youth Entrepreneurship Strategy(YES).

He equally launched an online portal to serve as  a common platform for all of federal government’s diverse youth training entrepreneurship interventions.- Nigeria Youth Entrepreneurship Network (NYENET.COM)‎ -The initiative will partner with the Anabel Group to promote and manage the NYENET.COM portal.

The portal will provide access to hundreds of Federal and State Government empowerment programs for youths and also enhance the Federal Government’s ability to reach out to young people. 

In this case,if you require education or you require funding for your business, or in some cases all you require is a mentor to guide you through the tough economic conditions, you can find support with this strategy and by using this portal.  

 The Youth Entrepreneurship Strategy goes further to fill the gaps of entrepreneurship programs by providing bankable business ideas to support young people that do not have ideas, or those that their great ideas have not found interest with the banks and financing institutions.

As part of YES, the president signed into the ‘Coalition of Super Mentors’, and called on other big and prominent Nigerians to follow suit.
