You should be able to defend what you said in your application. Body language matters alot. To be frank,you can't really know what they want but they know who is really telling the truth about his/her accomplishment.

From my own interview,I was asked the source of funds in carrying out my projects and how much I bought each equipment distributed. I fumbled,my expenditure was far higher than my capital. Is that possible.? NO. You can see I wasn't prepared enough or I lied.

Just be prepared,that's all. Its not a do or die affiar but an experience that would help and guide one in future endeavours.

I see. This is one of the affliate programs of YALI and as you can see,its YALI COHORT. It differs from Mandela fellowship entirely.

Oh okay I thought it was the same when I saw YALI

iHart:
Yours is for regional leadership centres in Africa.

okay..thanks its different then
now I get you guys sorry for the misunderstanding

OK. That's very kind of you. God will see us through this time around. Just a question, did you apply for the Entrepreneurship category? You talked about equipment and capital. Also, presenting of documents or proof of your work is it compulsory?

Amen.

Yes. I fell under entrepreneurship category.

With your application,I think you answered few questions,right? You must have done something in your community. How did you achieve that goal? Your answer would guide them the question you will be asked so,you can't be smart always.

I don't want to go into personal details on your last question but if you read between the lines,you would get why they asked me that question.

As I said earlier,you are not expected to bring any document except proof of identity.

Alright. Thanks. I got friends that applied last year but were not called for the interview (second round). What do you think was the problem? What do they required in the application process? Those friends of mine applied in the entrepreneurship and civil leadership categories but non of them was called.

Seriously,I don't know their modus operandi. That was my second time of applying before I was shortlisted. We just have to keep on trying,hope for the best and prepare for the worse.

Present sir, any information?

Happy new month, dear Nigerian future leaders. I understand the winners of the second round of YALI would be announced between November and December. I wish all of us the best of luck. God bless you all!

what is the future for this program with the Trump winning the President of America....Hope they will still continue this program because that man called Trump can not be trust on any issue about Africa.

Last month fellows (those who went to america for this program and came back) organized a conference. He said that when they went, they meet with Obama. Obama was telling them that they should be praying that Hilary wins becos she will fully support and allocate more funds to the program. So as now. We just have to be praying to God that uncle t (trump) should not block it. Its well. Amen

wow

Well, this is really serious. But I understand Obama tried to institutionalise the program so that successive US Presidents can continue. I do not know if he has done that. At this point, we are have to seriously pray. I wish us all the best of luck.

Jerobans:
Did you apply for Young African Leadership Initiative - YALI 2017? If you applied for the programme, please let's meet here!

casttlebarbz:
pls, how are u guys preparing ?

Just hoping and praying that they should call us for the interview!

Anyways let's hope for the best. I'm pretty sure we would soon hear something from them

Happy New month guys! Any news so far?

Nothing yet oo

The info I got from their fb page is that applicants should download their applications and prepare for interview. I guess before the year ends we would hear from them.

That is true.

May God favour us

Happy New Year to you guys. Any news so far?
