The Centre for Advocacy, Transparency and Accountability Initiative, known as CATAI, and its partners have restated their readiness to establish a platform supporting young entrepreneurs in Borno.
According to a BusinessDay Nigeria report published on 24 August 2026, the planned platform is intended to help break barriers and rally funding for the entrepreneurs. The information available does not specify which business sectors or parts of Borno would be covered.
The report also does not name CATAI’s partners, state how much funding the organisations hope to mobilise or identify potential sources of finance. It remains unclear whether support would take the form of grants, loans, investment or another financing arrangement.
No implementation timetable, application process or eligibility criteria have been provided. There is also no disclosed information on how many young entrepreneurs the proposed platform expects to reach.
Further details will be needed to determine how the initiative will move from stated readiness to implementation, and how entrepreneurs in Borno can access the proposed support.
