The Federal Government has entered into a partnership with Investonaire Academy to train 100,000 Nigerian youths annually in foreign exchange (forex) trading, in a move aimed at reducing unemployment and promoting financial inclusion.
The agreement was formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed on Monday in Abuja. According to a statement issued Tuesday by the Director of Information and Public Relations at the Federal Ministry of Youth Development, Omolara Esan, the training will cover forex trading, risk management, and financial literacy.
Minister of Youth Development, Ayodele Olawande, described the initiative as a strategic effort to equip young Nigerians with digital and entrepreneurial skills that can enhance individual livelihoods and contribute to national economic growth.
