Tomorrow’s ICT billionaires to be made today as Minister unveils Yuboss entrepreneurship scheme at Yudala Zero Gravity Concert… Senators, Reps, others to grace show

Admin October 21, 2016

olamide-at-lagos-showThe journey of some Nigerians youths to the billionaire status in ICT would begin today as the  Minister of Labour and Productivity, Senator Chris Ngige is scheduled to officially launch YUBOSS – an entrepreneurship and wealth creation scheme set up by Yudala in partnership with foremost financial institution, Access Bank Plc. and telecommunications giants, Airtel as part of the activities at the Yudala Zero Gravity concert.

The musical concert has pushed Abuja into an overdrive of frenzy and excitement. The show  holding at the Sheraton Hotel, Abuja starting today  October 21st from 4pm at Sheraton Hotel was a carry-over from the Lagos concert which paraded high octane artistes like Olamide, Naeto C, among others.

The organisers have confirmed that the Abuja even will also be supported by senators, House of Reps members and other top politicians who would be lining up with the minister to unveil the Yuboss scheme. The scheme recently received a N1.5 billion take-off grant from Leo Stan Ekeh Foundation. Other multinationals in the ICT ecosystem are also going to partner with the scheme.

YUBOSS is an entrepreneurship scheme set up by pioneer online and offline retail giants, Yudala to build a league of emerging entrepreneurs and generate creative employment for millions of Nigerians. Members are entitled to attractive commissions and a wide range of benefits including business mentorship sessions and capacity-building workshops.

Through YUBOSS, Yudala seeks to generate creative employment for thousands of Nigerians by offering them a chance to earn mouth-watering commissions through sales of Yudala’s wide range of products. The scheme is structured to see members rise through the ranks and ultimately become the part-owner of a Yudala franchise store when they achieve platinum status.

Interested individuals can access the YUBOSS page on the Yudala website to sign up for the scheme by filling the registration form on the page. Apart from being able to sign up on the Yudala website, intending members who have existing accounts with Yudala can migrate it to the YUBOSS by signing up after logging in.

Instructively, YUBOSS is targeted at smart Nigerians: undergraduates, post-graduate students, unemployed and under-employed individuals, housewives etc. who have the drive and ambition to earn money and be their own bosses.

Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Yudala Nigeria, Mr. Dave Ibelegbu, who signed the contract documents on behalf of the company, had stated the massive impact YUBOSS will have in improving the lives of participants.

“I enjoin Nigerians to visit the Yudala website to sign up to YUBOSS. This is a scheme that will definitely change the lives of millions of Nigerians. There is no investment on the part of members. Exceptional performers will enjoy commissions and swift movement through the scheme to become eventual business partners of Yudala.”

On his part, Executive Director, Personal Banking at Access Bank, Mr. Victor Etiokwu who represented the Group MD, Mr. Herbert Wigwe disclosed that YUBOSS is a game-changer which is set to unlock prosperity for millions of Nigerians, while taking the nation’s economy to greater heights at this critical period of our national life.

“When the discussions on YUBOSS commenced between both organizations, I was excited because this is an initiative that will empower millions of Nigerian youths and by extension, contribute to the growth and development of the Nigerian economy. I am not in doubt that this scheme will be a huge success, especially considering Yudala’s nationwide network of stores, the calibre of renowned entrepreneurs driving the company and the drive and expertise exhibited by the entire team.”

Also, Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director, Airtel Nigeria, Mr. Segun Ogunsanya emphasizes the strategic nature of Airtel’s partnership with Yudala, which according to him, will undoubtedly raise the profile of the YUBOSS scheme by offering members a sound telecoms network and high speed data access on 3G network. He noted that contemporary society is increasingly reliant on information as a gateway to wealth creation – a requirement Airtel sufficiently fulfils with its broadband wireless services and high speed internet access which will go a long way in empowering YUBOSS members to achieve the ultimate target of creating wealth for themselves and being their own bosses.

Yudala Zero Gravity – a multi-city mega entertainment concert –  kicked off in Lagoswith a Contemporary Music Concert on Sunday October 2nd at the Landmark Event Centre, Lagos and featured thrilling performances from a host of superstar artistes including Olamide, Naeto C, Sound Sultan, Humblesmith, Zoro and an eye-catching performance from fast-rising act, David Grey. In addition to a keenly contested dance competition, ace comedian Ali Baba was also hand to treat the audience to a repertoire of rib-cracking jokes from his collection.

The well-attended event had a number of dignitaries including bank CEOs, Chief Executives and captains of industries in attendance as well as a number of corporate organizations represented including Hewlett Packard, Airtel, Access Bank, Stanbic Bank, Hennessy, Kia Motors, Uber. The event was also covered extensively by major media establishments such as MTV Base, Trace TV, among many others.

The Yudala Zero Gravity fever is set to grip the city of Abuja with a Contemporary Music Concert on October 21st and a Rock Gospel Concert on October 22nd at the Sheraton Hotel, Abuja while Enugu will rock with a Contemporary Music and Rock Gospel Concert on November 5th and 6th respectively at Michael Okpara Square.

The grand finale of Yudala Zero Gravity 2016 will feature a Rock Gospel Concert in Lagos at the Federal Palace Hotel on November 20th featuring a strong field of A-list gospel artistes.
