Debbie, please go bring out the details now, okay. Please bring all the proofs here so that the world can see. If you can't present any proof now, don't comment on any trend on this platform. Look at yourself, why do you allow yourself to be used by evil men.

debbie:
i am not writing what i heard..i wrote what i know and you know it too. Please dont let me go into details...just don't let me. Thanks

Correct! youths are tools of development and not tools of evil.

yandevboy:
Like the Ooni rightly said, if Nigeria must move forward.it is the youths that are the vehicle to take her there.

Enough of using youths as evil tools in the hands of corrupt politicians

Debbie, this is a blatant lie aimed at destroying the reputation of the Association. Since the inception of the organisation it has not requested money from any entrepreneur for any event or empowerment program. Hope you are not mistaking Young Entrepreneurs of Nigeria (YEN) to any other organisation. Why elect to destroy the works of meaningful young Nigerians trying to make this country better through youth entrepreneurship and empowerment, must you pull others down to progress? For your information the previous event hosted by the organisation on 16th May, 2017 in Lagos was 100% free. The event was attended by over 1000 youths and women across the country. I advised you go make proper research about this organisation (YEN) before laying your claims.

The Association will be hosting a National Youth Empowerment Summit 2017 where 8,000 youths will be empowered across the 6 goe-political zones. The summit will gather over 20,000 youths to discuss youth entrepreneurship development and empowerment in Nigeria. Registration for the event and empowerment is free, register now at www.yen.org.ng/yes2017. See picture speaks of our previous event: Youth & Women Empowerment Summit held in Lagos, Nigeria on 16th March, 2017.

debbie:
YEN is one thing that have scammed alot of Nigerians..TEEF owned by tony elumelu didn't request for money to get start-ups funded,neither did he do all those abracadabra that YEN do all in the name of getting the best business ideas.Now carefully read through to understand what i am talking about.

YEN opens application from every Nigerian youth,and you are expected to pay 3k for a form which they said it is help your business proposal and conditions will be placed on the form.Now lagos,enugu,asaba,kaduna,abuja and other major centers last year had 0ver 2000 applicants with lagos having as high as 5000 youths.Do the maths 3000x20000=60,000,000naira.... this is just approximate value and may be more than this.
You will be called for auditioning and all will takes about 2 days to conclude depending on your location.The haven't yet told you that there are forms you must sign..After selecting the people they want,you all will be invited to come to Lagos--a studio in lekki and you will be told that you are going to do another auditioning for a ENTREPRENEURSHIP REALITY SHOW that runs for 13 weeks.You are to sign a bond of agreement not to question them, argue or talk bad about them concerning the whole stuff.Many intelligent people refused to sign and left them.After some weeks you will hear how they have funded some business ventures with 500,000 and above.

NOTE-
1.You dont learn anything.
2.No knowledge is gained from successful and experienced entrepreneurs
3.The whole process looks so cooked and arranged with many things not clear.
4.There is no clarity from their initial plan and what you are seeing
5.You get frustrated with the whole process,they recruit young boys and girls who dont even know what they are doing.
6.We dont get to hear about the successful ones making great impact in the soceity.
7.Finally it turns out to be a reality show with whatever reason they have in mind.

Too many irrelevant pictures,courtesy calls and all is what you see in YEN.
While this is my candid analysis i must say that YEN is not productive to the needs of young people as they say.
Well i hope Nigerian youths will be wise to know what they want and not dance to every music they hear.

Thanks

This is so interesting, Nigerian needs more kings like Ooni of Ife. Long live the king!
