Capacity building is a potent tool for business development, Bank of Industry (BoI) Acting Managing Director Mr Waheed Olagunju has said.
Declaring open the Ife Youths Economic Summit at Ile Ife, Osun State, Olagunju restated the bank’s readiness to help youths become successful business owners.
The summit was co-sponsored by the Ooni of Ile-Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi and Senator Babajide Omoworare.
Speaking on the theme: “IFEPRENEURSHIP : Building Entrepreneurship Competency and Self-Reliance Among Ife Youths,” he advised youths to be empowered in capacity before venturing into business.
Olagunju urged participants at the summit not to see whatever financial benefit in terms of loans, grants or financial assistance by individual or corporate organisations extended to them as national cake meant to be enjoyed and squandered, but that such grants should be utilised to build a solid, endurable and sustainable investment.
