Live Your Dreams Africa (LYDA) Foundation said it would have created 1000 jobs through different empowerment programmes before the end of 2021.

Founder of the foundation Bankole Williams in a statement said, “with the recently concluded work in Kaduna and the projects, we intend to roll out before the end of this quarter, Live Your Dreams Africa has surpassed our goal of creating 1000 jobs in 2021.”

“In a continent like Africa, where poverty is a familiar challenge, and in a country where the rate of unemployment is at an alarming 33.1%, social consciousness and impact-driven initiatives have become even more imperative; one every citizen should embrace,” Williams said. However, with a sharp spike in the unemployment rate in Nigeria in 2018, Williams said LYDA responded to the clarion call for a more active intervention through the creation of the Dream Development Centre .

Williams noted that the LYDA Foundation, through partnerships with local and international organizations, has empowered over 28,000 people through our annual LYDA Conferences.
