In a bid to foster creativity, innovation, and skill development amongst corps members, the Minister of State for Youth Development, Ayodele Olawande on Tuesday announced a diverse range of financial support for corps entrepreneurs codenamed “Corprenuers”

During his maiden visit to NYSC Orientation Camp in Iseyin, Oyo State, the Minister said corps members have shown unimaginable level of industry, with many of them already running creative businesses even before they enrol in the NYSC program.

“We have to be innovative in tackling unemployment. We are aware that some of you have already engaged your talents to establish businesses and create jobs for yourselves. We are therefore prepared to support you to advance those businesses and take them to the next level before you pass out of the NYSC,” Olawande said.

While stating that ten corpreneurs would be supported with varied amounts, the minister said the initiative would be ongoing and will spread to other camps in a continuous effort to encourage corps members taking part in the Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development (SAED) and others with existing businesses.
