The Federal Ministry of Women Affairs has entered into a major partnership with Junior Achievement Nigeria to launch the SET4LYF Program. This initiative will provide life-changing opportunities for 180,000 adolescent children across Nigeria’s 36 states and the FCT.
Junior Achievement Nigeria is part of Junior Achievement Worldwide, a global leader in youth-focused programs. The organization operates in over 100 countries, offering millions of young people skills in entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and leadership.
Speaking on the partnership, the Minister of Women Affairs, Hajiya Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim, said, “Through the SET4LYF Program, we are equipping children with leadership, entrepreneurship, digital literacy, and essential life skills, preparing them to thrive, lead, and shape the future in an evolving world.”
She described the collaboration as “a bold step toward building a generation of young leaders who will power Nigeria’s future.”
The initiative focuses on preparing young Nigerians for work and business opportunities through digital skills, financial education, and personal development. It aims to promote economic empowerment and reduce youth unemployment across the country.
