How to Register for the Federal Government’s Youth Economic Intervention and De-Radicalization Programme (YEIDEP)

The Federal Government of Nigeria has launched the Youth Economic Intervention and De-Radicalization Programme (YEIDEP) — a bold initiative aimed at tackling youth unemployment, poverty, and insecurity through empowerment, economic engagement, and de-radicalization.
This program is anchored by Youths Off The Street Initiative (YOTSI) in partnership with the Federal Ministry of Youth Development and the Nigerian Senate (10th Assembly), through its Committee on Sports Development.
YEIDEP is a government-backed empowerment scheme designed to equip Nigerian youths with skills, opportunities, and access to funding that will help them become active contributors to national development.
What is the YEIDEP Programme About?
The Youth Economic Intervention and De-Radicalization Programme (YEIDEP) was created to address Nigeria’s pressing socio-economic challenges, including:
- High youth unemployment and underemployment
- Youth poverty and economic marginalization
- Radicalization and insecurity fueled by economic frustration
YEIDEP’s mission is simple — to empower Nigerian youths with the skills, platforms, and resources they need to build sustainable livelihoods and participate meaningfully in the economy.
Through economic engagement, vocational training, entrepreneurship support, and re-orientation, YEIDEP seeks to transform Nigerian youths from dependents into drivers of economic growth and national security.
Who Can Apply for YEIDEP?
YEIDEP is open to:
- Nigerian youths aged 18 to 40 years
