The Ogun State Government is set to offer grants, ranging from N500,000 to N10,000,000, as interest-free digital loan to business-oriented youths, under its Ogun Youth Empowerment and Entrepreneurial Programme, to allow them have financial resources to expand their businesses.

The state governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun disclosed this in Iperu during the Remo International Youth Day, with the theme, ‘’Transforming Food Systems: Youth Innovation for Human and Planetary Health’’, organised by Remo Growth and Development Foundation, saying more youths would be engaged to undergo digital training enterprises, while others would be provided with technical and vocation training to enable them become experts in various fields.
