HISTORY.
On the 12th of October 2020, The President and Commander in Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Muhammadu Buhari officially launched the Presidential Youth Empowerment Scheme (P-YES) in the Presidential Villa, as a sustainable response mechanism to the growing challenges of unemployment, youth restiveness and poverty among the fast growing youth population.
WHY P-YES?
-
There exists in Nigeria a large army of youth who have attained the status of economic hopelessness and despondency.
-
These vulnerable youth have become ready resources for the propagation of criminal activities.
-
Successive empowerment programmes seem to have excluded this category of Nigerian youth.
-
P-YES is designed to capture this excluded category of youth who are in urgent need of immediate intervention and rescue.
