Student entrepreneurs and small-scale business owners across six universities are set to benefit from a N10m grant provided by Stability and Sustenance in partnership with Engraced Events.
The beneficiaries are to be selected when the Stability and Sustenance team storms the six campuses for the Nigeria universities talent and skill monetization campus tour programme from today till March 28.
During the tour, seasoned entrepreneurs will speak with students of the six universities on how to monetise their skills and grow their respective businesses.
The Stability and Sustenance campus tour, tagged “Laff & Learn,” will see Nigeria’s comedian, Chibuike Alfred, popularly called Josh2funny, share his expertise and experience in creating comic content that is acceptable to both local and international audiences.
Campuses to be visited are the University of Port Harcourt on March 7th, Veritas University in Abuja on March 12th, Ambrose Ali University, Ekpoma in Edo State on 14th March; University of Nigeria, Enugu, University of Calabar and University of Lagos, on March, 19th, 26th and 28th respectively.
According to the founder of Stability and Sustenance, Melody Fidel, the 2025 campus tour is aimed at encouraging students to embrace entrepreneurship, self-reliance and job creation.
“It is worrisome that many parents toiled to send their children to the university and after graduation, the parents are still struggling to fend for the graduates because of the lack of white-collar jobs.
“Our campus tour is to educate and empower students with the ability and capability to become employers of labour rather than wait for employment after school.”
“At Stability and Sustenance, we don’t just talk. We provide practical solutions to the problem through expert tutoring, community mentoring and provision of grants to deserving budding youth and entrepreneurs,” he stated.
CEO of Engraced Events, Itoto Emmanuel, said, “It is exciting to be working with Josh2Funny on this campus tour because of popular appeal among Nigerians.
“Aside from fun, the show will also serve as a platform for advocacy against social vices such as cultism, drug abuse and general violence.”
Stability and Sustenance platform provides youth and entrepreneurship coaching across Africa and the United Kingdom.
