In its quest to create a veritable platform for building entrepreneurial spirit in Nigeria’s teeming youths, Fidelity Bank Plc has expanded the scope of its Fidelity Youth Empowerment Academy (YEA) in bid to accommodate new areas of vocational training.
The bank, in strategic partnership with Gazelle Academy
commenced the seventh edition of the YEA at the Sokoto State University (SSU),
