BUHARI’S ‘DEEL’ WITH NIGERIAN YOUTHS

By FEMI ADESINA

What’s the deal for youths in the country, particularly from the Muhammadu Buhari administration? That is a question that often comes from different quarters.

Well, the deal for the largest demographic composition, representing about 65% of our population, has been encapsulated under the acronym DEEL. And it’s a big deal, standing for Digital Skill Acquisition, Employability, Entrepreneurship, and Leadership.

Unfolding the deal behind DEEL last week at the State House Press Briefing was Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Sunday Dare, who disclosed that his Ministry has the mandate to promote the physical, mental and socio-economic development of the youth through the advancement and protection of their rights within Nigeria.

But is the job being done? How, and to what end? The Ministry has the duty of developing the youth, and also sports. But let’s focus on the youth component in this piece, as it is quite a germane issue, which often sends those involved into dangerous and illegal migration, in which they dare both the Sahara Desert, and the Mediterranean Sea, all in the bid to get to ‘greener’ pastures in Europe, and other parts of the world.

A few survive the misadventure, while the larger number perish in the famished bowels of the Desert, or the watery enclave of the Sea. But why should our youths stay at home? Minister Dare unfurled the reasons.

DEEL. Digital Skill Acquisition. Entrepreneurship. Employability. Leadership.

Under D, the Minister says a minimum number of 6523 of our youths have been trained in robotics and artificial intelligence. Others have been tutored in mobile device repairs, 30,000 have benefited from what is called Digital Youth Nigeria through the IBM Digital Nation Africa, and 10,000 Youth Corps members benefited in Digital skills training.

There are also trainings in youth entrepreneurship for vulnerable youths, and applicant recruitment across the six geopolitical zones in the country, with a budget of N5.2 billion.

Under E, Entrepreneurship, the sum of N75 billion is to be spent over three years, 2020-2023. Called the Nigeria Youth Investment Fund (NYIF), it is an initiative of the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development, and is funded by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

The aim is to invest in the innovative ideas, skills and talent of our youths, thereby turning them into entrepreneurs, wealth creators and employers of labour, contributing to national development. The intention is to generate 500,000 jobs between 2020-2023.

According to Minister Dare, the sum of N2.9 billion has been disbursed so far under the CBN/NIRSAL arrangement, while 25,000 applicants have been evaluated and are undergoing final stage of training before funds disbursement.

Hear testimonials of some beneficiaries of NYIF: “I will like to send my appreciation to Mr President and the Ministry for the good job done to make sure the fund got to the right people.” Suleiman Abdulkadir.

Yemi Kemi Borisade: “Thank you Mr President for approving this fund through the Ministry of Youth and Sports. God bless Nigeria, God bless Mr President.”

And another beneficiary: “I thank the Federal Government through the Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports for the opportunity to benefit and scale up my business.”

About 5,258 youths have already benefited from the MSME loan.

In a digital age, the onus is on literate youths to apply online, to become beneficiaries. They need not look for godfathers to help, as it is available for all and sundry. Our youths need to eschew cynicism and skepticism, and step into what has been provided for them. The saying that “nothing ventured, nothing gained,” still rings true. The testimonies are from different parts of the country under the scheme.

There’s the Nigeria Online Youth Assembly (NOYA), which is a purpose-built portal by the Ministry to enable youths get job opportunities, scholarships for personal development, and it presently has over 98, 300 youths signed up.

Instead of joining NOYA, we have millions of youths who are online, spewing hatred against their country, its leadership, and being purveyors of fake news, and hatred. It’s surely not the way to go.

There are series of opportunities for our youths to improve their employability, and acquire leadership skills. There’s the Work Experience Programme (WEP), designed to provide opportunities for them to obtain technical and work readiness skills that will increase their potential for employment, through placement in various organizations for a period of three months.

Under President Buhari, stipend payable to NYSC members has been increased from N18,000 monthly to N33,000. Over 3000,000 youth benefit from this.

Opportunities abound for our youths to benefit from different provisions under DEEL. But they have to go for what has been provided, and not just bemoan their fate, lamenting that nothing is being done for them. Leadership is taken, not given on a platter. They asked for the Not Too Young to Run law, they got it. Let them use what they now have.

The truth is that the focal points of the Buhari administration have been designed to give our youths a future and a hope. When insurgency and banditry are being robustly fought, it is so that the youths can have a country. When efforts are made to retune, diversify and make the economy robust, it is for the youth. And when corrupt people are jailed and their loots recovered, it is for the youths to have a future.

Let there be no disruptive tendencies from our youths again. Let them know that they are stakeholders in the country, their country, and they have roles to play in salvaging Nigeria. It’s a big deal, and DEEL is a good way to get there.

Useless country!!!

Mrscarter:
Ur right. But they think this way cos girls today majority do prefer money over love. They'd date the ugly, the dumb, the arrogant etc etc as long as he has money.
That's why some men think this way.
I think a man should be funny, kind, gud manners, intelligent, family orientated, loyal, trustworthy and most of all love you unconditionally and it goes both ways.

I did all what you mentioned... Guess what!?, she left for a rich guy, I pity any man wey no get money, because now I have little change i know deep about women, most of you are very very pragmatic and chronic manipulators!

valuehub:
It's better you enjoyed your football game. Those kind of your friends ehn, e go hard to teach them.

How will you teach someone who knows more than you!?, to me sef this life na scam, so the smarter one is the better for the person.

Mark Zuckerberg and the whole of Facebook are idiots... Banning me because I replied someone that he "reasons like a typical Nigerian", omo like say I no be Nigerian as well, bunch of idiots, once Donald Trump launches his own Social media site, I'm leaving them!

Your numbers 1, 2 and 3 is a fat lie. Constant checking on a girl will make her form a bond quickly and love you more than trying to be scarce because so many others will be trying to woo her at the same time. So, the one who marks the register every morning, makes an impression that will earn him her heart.

Someone tried to form scarce for me recently, I just blocked him.

Also telling a woman you love her helps her quickly make her choice from the numerous guys. So while you're there forming, I won't tell her yet, another smart guy has done so and you know we ladies are moved by what we hear. So??


You only got close with your last point. Yes, guys who give up quickly might just be missing a girl who truly wants them but just wants to see if he can fight to have her for keeps.

fight for what exactly... you keep your brain for bank not to reciprocate his love!?, this is 2020 no one has such trivial time by the way women yakpa everywhere!

CalliDora1:
Capital NO!

Only wordly men and sinners practice premarital sex. Take it or leave it!

Spirituality asides. Sex does not keep a man or determine a successful relationship or marriage.

Morally speaking, it is not good. Keep your chastity. It pays.

meaning you are virgin!?

[quote author= post=97013685]We read some comments on this forum sometimes and can only marvel!

We don't know if youths of nowadays ever sit down and plan to make their life meaningful. 
All they are looking for is to say trash against men of God.
What many of you don't know is that you keep shutting doors against your self and your future when you say bs against God's servants.

Just because you have a phone do not give you the right to come online to comment on things you don't understand and say different kinda trash.

Well, we will continue to remember you in our prayers. 
We just pray God have mercy on this generation.[/quote]Go and sit down... even the Bible says money answereth all things, who are you!?

the first person that commented has said it all.. if your parents are rich there's 90% chance you'll make it in life, nothing like destiny it's all fallacy and scam to manipulate people!!!... go out and hustle if your parents are poor!!!

Biglittlelois:

Jodha:
If I was a guy.... I'll be attracted to a tall lady with ass...either dark or fair....she should be really smart... simple and well behaved.... that's the kind of lady I'll want for my brothers...

When you start listening to “prophets” is when you start designing your doom.




They all are fake, self-centered, and ambitious entrepreneurs.



Their deliverance packages are where they build the customer relationship and database.




The u-turn in your life wasn't because of their prophecies marketing talks, it is because everyone must be flooded with life anxieties. It is nobody's fault. That is what sin begot.


Stop projecting your failures to others. You only need to work harder to punch that rendition.

What have we discussed so far? Avoid prophets and prayer warriors. In the least, remember none of them saw Covid-19. What they all similarly see is evil spirits in people; people bewitching people etc.




Live a simple life bro. You can communicate with God directly. You need no human intermediary.



Don't let the so-called prophet DEMONstrate who is evil to you or not. Use your discernment and don't forget to pray.


I can share with you an ebook on knowing true friends.


You are welcome.

please share the eBook with me (cj4life35@gmail.com). you sound very enlightened... lovely piece you wrote here!
