 Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Mr. Sunday Dare  has charged the  Ministerial Technical Committee on Nigeria Youth Investment Fund to carry out their  assignment with dispatch.
Speaking at the inauguration of  the Technical Committee,  the Minister said the setting up of the Fund   underscores the absolute confidence the administration had in the innovative skills, talents and industry of the Nigerian Youth. ”NYIF is expected to  serve as a youth bank to fund and support the enterprise of the Nigerian Youth through loan and credit pathways.
The idea was driven by the urgent need to accelerate the loan and finance processes for our talented youth, fund their ideas with a view of ratcheting up the number of youths that are entrepreneurs. The government does not envisage that NYIF will be caught in the same stringent measures that characterize similar support for youth,but there will be due diligence and best practices as it is a loan and not grant”.
He reiterated   that   the NYIF  Ministerial Technical Committee was constituted to facilitate the effective operationalization and implementation of the Fund.
The Committee  is expected to develop implementation  strategies  and roll out; road map and funding sustenance, advise on implementation  structure, define roles of stakeholders, work out and recommend  entrepreneurial  funding.
