Ministry of Youth, SEC Sign MoU to Open Capital Market Door to Youths

According to the Minister of the ministry of youth and development Olawande Emmanuel Ayodele, he has signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to open the doors of the capital market to Nigerian youth.

He stated that for too long, many young people saw the capital market as something distant, meant only for the rich. But today, we are making it clear: the capital market belongs to every Nigerian young person.

This partnership will deliver gainful knowledge and practical training to Nigerian youth, which they can use to leverage their saving, investments, and build businesses that will shape our economy for generations. What we are doing with this collaboration with SEC is to create wealth, build investors; and support young entrepreneurs across our nation, the Minister stated.
