P-YES simply means Presidential Youth Empowerment Scheme. Please carefully read this article as we will be guiding you on how to properly apply for the P-YES recruitment 2019.
The 2019/2020 scheme aims to create at least 774,000 empowerment opportunities through direct youth empowerment over a minimum period of two years. Some persons have likened it to NPOWER but this scheme is strictly for Nigerian Youths.
The P-YES scheme covers the “Youth” defined in the Nigerian National youth policy (2009) as male and female individuals whose ages are between 18 and 40 years old.
The scheme is designed to equip the youth with requisite skills, knowledge and resources that will make them productive; thereby reducing poverty and creating an economically empowered youth population that can contribute meaningfully to national growth.
