FEDERAL GOVERNMENT EXTENDS YouWiN! ENTRIES TO NOV 18
The closing date for entries for the Federal Government organised young entrepreneurs’ business competition, Youth Enterprise with Innovation in Nigeria, YouWiN! has been extended to Nov 18, 2011. This is sequel to an earlier extension of the age limit from 35 to 40.
The Project Coordinator, Dr. Olasupo Olusi attributes this new extension to clamor from various parts of Nigeria where government agencies, NGOs and numerous entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial organisations have been making representations to ensure young people from their domains are not left out. This would be the case, they claim, if there is no extension in the entry date.
“YouWiN! is a work in progress”, says Dr. Olusi in a statement made available to newsmen. “And considering that this is the first of a three-part project (billed to run once every three years), we are simply overwhelmed by the level of interest shown from all over the country for this inaugural edition. However, we are even more cognizant now of the fact that internet penetration as well as affordability is an issue with lots of young entrepreneurs. It is for this reason especially that we have had to acquiesce to the call for extending the deadline in order to accommodate those who may need more time to send in their entries”.
The statement also praised the ingenuity of the young Nigerian businessperson who in spite of obvious challenges in the environment is forging ahead to ensure the production and delivery of products and services to Nigerians wherever they live. “The role of the young entrepreneur in nation building cannot be over emphasised. They are the shoulder on which Nigeria’s future development rests. And it is for this purpose that the Federal Government has singled them out as a key group for support”.
It may be recalled that on October 11 this year, while launching the Youth Enterprise with Innovation in Nigeria YouWiN! project in Abuja, President Goodluck Jonathan had said that through the project, the Federal Government would financially Nigerian youths to enable them actualise their entrepreneurial ideas and plans. The president had said that the trickle-down effect of this assistance would see “these entrepreneurs create between 80,000 and 110,000 sustainable jobs over the next four years”

Toyosi Oni Youngest Nigerian Human Rights Activist Needs Your Votes
Oluwatoyosi (Toyosi) grew up in Nigeria, where she became aware of human rights before many young people. Aged 14, before moving to Britain, she founded her first charity; raising money for a local orphanage and educating girls who would otherwise have been sent to work in kitchens. She has also been involved in supporting those affected by the Haitian earthquake and Rwandan genocide.
Now, in Britain, Toyosi is her school’s ‘Deputy Head Girl in charge of Charities and Community Outreach’, and has organised fundraising events for various charities. She won ‘Best Business Woman, Cambridge’ in this year’s Young Enterprise competition. She has also organised ‘Hunger Lunches’, where schoolchildren forfeit their usual lunch for a bowl of soup and a morsel of bread.
Her charity work is about helping others, but is also part of Toyosi’s long-term goal of becoming a Human Rights Lawyer. Someday she dreams of becoming President of Nigeria, with a view to ending the injustice and hardship there.
Toyosi wants to continue to speak up for those without a voice. Winning the Ambition AXA Award would help her fund her own ambitions of changing the world.
Go to http://www.ambitionaxaawards.com/content/community/oluwatoyosi-oni to vote for her
you can also follow her on her twitter handle @Toyosi_Oni
