The President Bola Tinubu-led government has announced plans to empower at least 5,000 members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members with N10 million each to fund their entrepreneurial ventures after they complete the NYSC scheme.

GWG.ng reports that this was disclosed by the Minister of Youth Development, Dr. Jamila Ibrahim, during the opening ceremony of the inaugural meeting of the NYSC management with heads of Corps Producing Institutions (CPI) in Nigeria, held on Monday in Abuja.

She noted that this funding initiative aligns with the upcoming NYSC reforms and is distinct from the Nigerian Youth Investment Fund program set for 2024.

Reacting to this announcement, some netizens jubilated while others appeared to be suspicious of the move.
