Renewing Hope for a Thriving Nigeria
History of the Federal Ministry of Youth Development
The Federal Ministry of Youth Development (FMYD) was established in Nigeria on December 18, 2007, as part of a government initiative to centralize youth-focused policies and programs. Its creation was a result of the strategic merger of the Inter-Governmental Affairs and Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) monitoring units, aimed at addressing youth development challenges holistically.
In a significant structural adjustment on November 10, 2015, the National Sports Commission was merged with the Federal Ministry of Youth Development, leading to the formation of the Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports Development. This merger reflected the government’s vision to integrate youth development and sports management under a unified framework for better coordination and resource utilization.
The Federal Ministry of Youth Development (FMYD)is the Ministry responsible for the provision of a Sustainable Framework for the Formulation and Implementation of Policies, Programmes and other Initiatives which Promote and Enhance Youth Development in collaboration with Stakeholders.
The Federal Ministry of Youth Development stands as a vital institution dedicated to fostering the empowerment, engagement, and holistic development of Nigerian youth. Building on this foundation, the Ministry operates with a clear mandate, mission, and vision to guide its efforts in ensuring that the aspirations and potentials of Nigerian youth are realized.
