Nigerian Youth Are Resourceful-Dare
Nigerian Youth is not only important but endowed with positive traits and resourcefulness that inspires out-of-the-box thinking.
According to Minister of Youth and Sports Development Mr Sunday Dare
“The new generations are full of new ideas, and the ability to visualize all the possible ways to achieve what they desire.
“Resourcefulness turns you into an inventive and enterprising entrepreneur. This Government always recognizes the resourcefulness of Nigerian youth. To a very large extent, their resourcefulness, talents and innovative minds has made them excel in the entertainment industry, sports, and ICT.
“I can tell you we are working with the UNDP on a DOCUMENTARY CALLED “I’M A NIGERIAN”….
This documentary will identify about 100 to 200 Nigerian youth who have excelled and are excelling in their various fields of endeavors and making impacts by solving problems over the years with their innovations and creativity”
The Minister reiterated the need to start seeing Nigerian youth as Leaders of today who will grow to greater leadership tomorrow.
“This Documentary is to encourage and inspire youth to do more and above all change the narrative that an average Nigerian Youth is not talented or crime inclined. This is a government with youth investment and development mandate for national development.”

Joel Ajayi
The Honourable Minister of Youth Development, Comrade Ayodele Olawande, accompanied by the Permanent Secretary, Mr. Olubunmi Olusanya, and members of the Ministry’s team, paid a working visit to Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing (IVM) in Nnewi, Anambra State.
The delegation was warmly received by Chief Innocent Chukwuma (OFR), Chairman and CEO of the Innoson Group, whose humility and steadfast commitment to Nigeria’s industrial growth remain a source of national pride.
The Minister commended Innoson’s pioneering role in local innovation and job creation, particularly its ventures in CNG vehicle production, tractor assembly, and other industrial initiatives that present vast opportunities for youth empowerment.
During the tour, the Honourable Minister interacted with young Nigerians who have benefited from Innoson’s technical training and apprenticeship programmes, including two outstanding young women now excelling as auto-technicians.
Their stories, he noted, exemplify the transformative power of skill acquisition and enterprise in shaping a self-reliant generation.
As an outcome of the visit, the Ministry will partner with Innoson to expand youth training, apprenticeship, and enterprise development programmes across the country, focusing on the automotive value chain and allied sectors.
The Minister also met with the Anambra State Commissioner for Youth Development, Hon. Patrick Agha Mba, to explore joint efforts between the federal and state governments in advancing the “1 Youth, 2 Skills” campaign. Both ministries reaffirmed their shared commitment to equipping young Nigerians with practical, income-generating skills that foster productivity, innovation, and self-reliance.
