If Ben Murray-Bruce, the former CEO of Silver Bird T.V
and Senator representing Bayelsa East Senatorial
district would have his way, each youth corps member
will receive N500,000 capital to start any business of
their choice once they finish with the one-year
compulsory service under the National Youth Service
Corps (NYSC). He described it as a way to create
jobs.

“To provide jobs, Youth Corpers should be taught
entrepreneurial skills for a year then be given 500k
each to start a biz when they pass out.

“Government should provide the 500k to a commercial
bank for release to the Youth Corper only to pay for
business set up costs.

“We must wean our youths of this idea that they are
job seekers only. They can be job creators if the state
trains and equips them,” Murray-Bruce wrote on
Twitter.

The Senator also asked that the education system be
overhauled to teach entrepreneurial skills from
secondary school to university.

“Company registration must be simplified and the cost
drastically reduced. Nigerian youths should be able to
register a biz [business]with 10k [N10,000] only.

“By the time a youth leaves Secondary School, he
should have been taught how to register a company
and the basics of entrepreneurship.

“If we prepare youths for entrepreneurship right from
secondary to university and train them for 1 year
during NYSC they’ll develop Nigeria,” he noted.
