Ogun State government is set to offer grants, ranging from N500,000 to N10,000,000, and interest-free digital loan to business-oriented youths, under its Ogun Youth Empowerment and Entrepreneurial Programme, to allow them have financial resources to expand their businesses.
The state Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun disclosed this during the Remo International Youth Day, with the theme, ‘’Transforming Food Systems: Youth Innovation for Human and Planetary Health’’, at the Christ Apostolic Grammar School, Iperu-Remo in Ikenne Local Government Area, adding that more youths would be engaged to undergo digital training enterprises, while others would be provided with technical and vocation training to enable them become experts in various fields.
Represented by the Onirolu of Irolu, Oba Sikiru Adeyiga urged youths in Remoland to brace up and tap into the agricultural opportunities in the state, calling on government to make tractors available for them.
