In a bold move to combat youth unemployment and promote financial empowerment, the Federal Government of Nigeria has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Investonaire Academy to provide free Forex trading training for 100,000 young Nigerians each year.
The partnership, officially sealed in Abuja earlier this month, aims to equip participants with practical knowledge in foreign exchange (Forex) trading, risk management, and financial planning. The initiative is designed to empower Nigerian youth with tools to actively participate and thrive in the global financial markets.
Investonaire Academy, the implementing partner, has begun accepting registrations from interested applicants via its official website. The academy is known for its innovative approach to financial education, combining investment principles, gamified learning, and modern trading strategies to prepare young Africans for digital-age finance.
According to officials, this government-backed training is more than just a skills acquisition program—it is a strategic investment in Nigeria’s human capital. The program is expected to create sustainable job opportunities, encourage self-employment, and build a financially literate generation prepared for the digital economy.
“This initiative is about giving our youth a chance, not just to learn, but to earn, grow, and take control of their financial futures,” a representative of Investonaire Academy said during the MoU signing event.
To be eligible, applicants must be Nigerian and show a genuine interest in Forex and financial training. Interested participants can now join the waiting list via the official registration portal.
