The Federal Government of Nigeria aims to create one million jobs to combat youth unemployment in all 774 local government areas. Minister of State for Youth Development Ayodele Olawande announced this commitment on Friday in Abuja.

Olawande highlighted the government’s determination to educate, inspire, and connect Nigerian youths with careers and opportunities in the insurance sector through digital technology.

He reaffirmed the government’s dedication to increasing youth participation in the insurance industry to foster job creation and enhance financial inclusion.

This announcement follows a statement from the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) regarding a new rural electricity project, funded by the World Bank, set to provide electricity for 17.5 million Nigerians starting in November.
