Ayodele Olawande, the Nigerian Minister of State for Youth Development, has demonstrated remarkable productivity since his appointment. Recognizing the importance of youth development, he has actively engaged with stakeholders to collaborate on initiatives aimed at empowering the Nigerian youth.
In his efforts to equip young Nigerians with valuable skills, the Minister recently launched a pioneering scheme known as the Nigerian Youth Academy (NiYA). This initiative seeks to ensure that every youth in Nigeria has, at least, two skills. NiYA provides millions of young individuals across the country with access to a growing collection of online classes that can be taken at their own pace, from any location, and at any time.
