How Develpment of Youth Initiative of Nigeria Is Touching Lives Of Nigerian Youths

Development of Youth Initiative of Nigeria is a non-profit, non-governmental organization where we saddle ourselves with the responsibility of developing, training and molding Nigerian Youths to become self-reliant and productive in the society. Our focus areas, include; skill acquisition programme, health sensitization, young farmers club, creativity and innovation, teamwork and social intelligence, self-discovery and self-reliance.   Mission Our mission is to mobilize and develop the youths in schools and communities using our well structured channels such as conference, exhibition, seminars, workshop, Town Hall Meetings, skill acquisition programmes, medical outreach etc, in order for these youths to be self-reliant in the society and responsible in the society.   Vision/value Our core value is to empower and liberate the Nigerian youths who will  possess the adequate and essential skills to lead Nigeria and her economy in the nearest future.   The Trail So Far It’s an established footprint that on 15^th-17^th November, DYIN in collaboration with Gwagwalada Area Council hosted a 3-day ground breaking life changing youth empowerment/workshop, where youths of Gwagwalada acquired different skills ranging from paint-making/production and wallpaper installation, soap making, catering, hairdressing, web development and graphic design, fashion design and embroidery, photography and cinematography, bead making, DSTV installation, laptop and phone repair, decoration and event planning, etc. The program had over 800 participants in all. One may ask why the population? Why we at DYIN is different from others is because we do not teach them only theory but do the practical and they do it in the presence of their facilitators/instructors. 17^th day of November, 2018, had the ground breaking event which  had in attendance the Grand Patron of the NGO; Pastor Gbolade Okenla, the Gwagwalada Area Council Chairman; Hon.
