Why Youths Should Be Encouraged To Be More Involved In Entrepreneurship by Efeiretegzz: 9:30am On Jun 13, 2023
Nigerian youths should be encouraged to take the reins of their lives into their own hands. Case in point - entrepreneurship; it's time for our young people to explore the world of startups and business ventures.

Why, you ask? Well, for starters, entrepreneurship allows you to be your boss and pursue your passions. It offers a chance to make a real impact on society by creating innovative solutions to local problems. Plus, it opens doors to financial independence and the potential to create jobs for others. We have plenty of talented and creative minds among our youth, and entrepreneurship provides a platform to showcase and monetize those skills. So let's inspire our peers to think outside the box, embrace risk-taking, and seize the countless opportunities that entrepreneurship brings. Together, we can drive economic growth, foster innovation, and shape a brighter future for Nigeria.

That is true, Capital is very important but knowing which business you want to get into and being able to draw up a well thought out business plan is more important. I say this because having a flawless business plan will put you in a position to apply for loans to start up your business.

A great way to ease the pain of the increased fuel price is ride sharing.

I thought so to.

While Tinubu's student loan program is not bad, giving youths loans to start their businesses is far better, as it provides jobs and also contributes to the economy.

Just my one cent.

The problem it's not the government but Nigerians are illiterate and stupid they will only vote for somebody which can do nothing for them go to America and Europe and see how Nigerians vote for criminals and killed themselves from criminals which could do nothing for them in Nigeria.

You can start small, with what you have, without even capital. Everyone already has something they can offer, if they think about it.

AntiChristian:
Wait, how do you even think of what to start?

If you understand entrepreneurship/business, it not something hard
The root of business is just solving a problem for people.

LMAO.

Start-up capital is just one part of the problem; multiple taxation by the government is what hinders businesses. Entrepreneurs have to pay taxes to the Federal Government, State Government, Local Government, as well as deal with "unofficial but legal individuals" who demand taxes, such as touts. These taxes can be monthly, semi-annual, or annual. Sometimes, you end up paying the same tax to different entities in different ways.

For example, the Federal Government collects income tax, while the state government collects its own income tax.

You keep your shop and its surroundings clean, pay individuals to dispose the waste and still pay the government for sanitation. You also have to pay electricity bills to NEPA and spend a significant amount on fuel to run your power generators. These are just a few minor examples.

Taxation poses a bigger problem than start-up capital.

People that hawk pure water inside IBB market pay levy too.

.

I disagree, give an average youth a lumpsum today and check his business in 6 months. Of all the factors of production, entrepreneurship/entrepreneur seems to be the only factor you can't stumble upon.
Start a plan when you don't have all other factors and see it materialize when the other factors find it's way to you. When you don't have a business plan, no individual/organization is willing to five you their hard earned resources.


I have tried this and it worked.

Good idea!

1. What we had & still have is SCHOOLING rather than EDUCATION.

2. There's too much emphasis on head & theoretical knowledge & less on technical & professional training.

3. Entrepreneurship training is almost non-existent.
