“The President salutes that Nigerian youth in Ebute Metta with only a ringlight and a camera, creating legitimate income and wonders in amusement; that young woman entrepreneur in Aba, creating inimitable fashion pieces, and that young man in Kano, creating pathways for sustainable agriculture through agro-technology,” the statement said.
The President reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to harnessing the creative talents of the youth, citing the relaunch of the Nigeria Youth Investment Fund (NYIF) and other initiatives aimed at empowering young people.
