The bank, in a statement, said it believes the initiative is one that would ultimately drive economic growth in Nigeria and equip young adults with life-long skills.

The Youth-Powered initiative will empower participants to broaden their outlook on their future plans providing them access to skills, social capital, and resources needed to realise their aspirations through training and mentorship.

The mentorship programme aims to improve the health and well-being of urban, low-income adolescents, between the ages of 15 and 19, by increasing voluntary family planning uptake, situating family planning holistically such that it encompasses enhancing youths with life skills for healthy living and future planning.

The partnership will also focus on fostering an enabling social and policy environment for adolescent health and development and increasing youth workforce readiness, job
