The Lagos State Ministry of Youth and Social Development has commenced the screening exercise to select candidates for the IBILE Youth Academy.
The Commissioner for Youth and Social Development, Mr Mobolaji Abubakre Ogunlende, announced this on the X platform using the Lagos State Government handle on Sunday.
He explained that selected candidates, chosen from the numerous applicants, were invited via email for a screening interview.
This screening is taking place at Ikeja Youth Centre and other designated centres across the five divisions of the State.
The candidates are expected to showcase their skills and talents as part of the criteria for moving to the next stage.
Ogunlende said, “This screening exercise will run from 10th to 18th October 2024 at designated centres across the five divisions of the State. It is basically for the Assessors to have one-on-one interaction with those who intend to participate in this year’s IBILE Youth Academy. In the process, they are expected to put in nothing less than their best because it’s only the most qualified that would move to the next stage.”
The Permanent Secretary, Pharm (Mrs.) Toyin Oke-Osanyintolu, assured participants of a level playing field and transparency, adding that they should take full advantage of the process to experience life-transforming opportunities.
Oke-Osanyintolu noted that the IBILE Youth Academy was established by the Ministry to inculcate in youth the virtue of volunteerism and leadership qualities that would make them stand out wherever they find themselves.
