The Ondo State Youth Entrepreneurship Scheme (OYES) has disbursed a total of N250 million in grants to 500 young entrepreneurs across the state. Beneficiaries were selected from over 5,000 applicants through a transparent digital process. Each recipient received between N500,000 to N1 million depending on their business plan. The scheme focuses on agribusiness, tech startups, and creative industries. One beneficiary, Adeola from Akure South, said, "This grant will help me scale my poultry farm from 500 to 5,000 birds. I am grateful to the government for believing in us." Applications for the second phase open in June 2024.

When is the next phase? I am ready with my business plan. We need more of these opportunities.
This is a game-changer! My friend got N800k for his fish farm. Ondo State is serious about youth development.
I applied but didn't get selected. Please make the process more transparent next time. Congrats to beneficiaries!
