The Federal Government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Investonaire Academy to train 100,000 young Nigerians every year in foreign exchange trading, as part of efforts to tackle unemployment and drive financial inclusion.
This was contained in a statement on Tuesday, signed by the Federal Ministry of Youth Developmentβs Director of Information and Public Relations, Omolara Esan.
The MoU, sealed on Monday in Abuja, will see Nigerian youths equipped with practical skills in forex trading, risk management, and financial literacy, with the aim of preparing them to actively participate in the global financial ecosystem.
Speaking at the signing, the Minister of Youth Development, Ayodele Olawande, described the initiative as a strategic step toward empowering young people with digital and entrepreneurial skills that can yield long-term benefits for both individuals and the economy.
βThis partnership reflects our strategic vision for sustainable youth development.
βBeyond trading, weβre teaching our youths to think critically, embrace digital tools, and seize global opportunities to build wealth and contribute meaningfully to the Nigerian economy,β Olawande said.
According to the statement, the minister emphasised that in a time of economic uncertainty, initiatives like this provide a credible route to financial independence and entrepreneurial resilience.
βThis MoU is not just a formality. It is a commitment to action. We will ensure transparent, measurable outcomes that genuinely impact the lives of young Nigerians,β he added.
On his part, the International Programme Director of Investonaire Academy, Dr. Enefola Odiba, expressed optimism about the collaboration, noting that it targets not just skill acquisition but also economic empowerment.
βYouths are the backbone of any nation. When empowered, they become catalysts for innovation and growth. This initiative is designed to bridge the socio-economic divide and unlock the immense potential of our young people,β he said.
