In a recent interview, Ebere Nwoji discussed the National Insurance Commission’s (NAICOM) exciting new partnership with the Ministry of Youth Development, aimed at launching the “One Million Youths in Insurance” initiative. This ambitious program seeks to train one million Nigerian youths.
During the interview, NAICOM representatives highlighted how this initiative aligns perfectly with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s agenda focused on job creation and youth empowerment. The program’s goal is to provide young Nigerians with essential knowledge and best practices in the insurance sector, promoting entrepreneurship and securing their financial futures. Moreover, it is designed to create job opportunities across all 774 local government areas.
Nwoji also emphasized that the initiative will enhance insurance awareness through social media and other communication platforms. This strategy not only benefits the insurance industry but also impacts various other sectors, contributing to Nigeria’s Financial Inclusion goals.
In his remarks, NAICOM’s Commissioner for Insurance, Mr. Ayo Omosehin, expressed his gratitude towards the Minister of State for Youths, Comrade Ayodele Olawande, for his unwavering dedication to the project. He praised the collaborative efforts among all stakeholders involved and expressed a strong belief that this initiative will mark a significant milestone for Nigerian youths.
