Â鶹ÊÓƵ is announcing Yield by Credit Direct as the Headline Sponsor of the second edition of the , taking place at the Jewel Aeida on August 22, 2026.
The partnership brings together two platforms committed to helping Nigerians make more deliberate decisions about their financial mobility.
This year’s conference is themed “All About Wealth” and will explore the full journey of building wealth: making money, keeping it, growing it, protecting it, and passing it on.
The theme reflects a broader reality. While many Nigerians are working, earning, investing, building businesses and creating multiple income streams, income alone does not always translate into lasting financial security. The conference will therefore move beyond conversations about how to make money and examine the systems, knowledge, decisions and tools that help people turn income into sustainable wealth.
Yield by Credit Direct will play a central role in bringing this ambition to life.
Yield is a wealth management platform designed for financially conscious Nigerians who want to do more with their money. Through its flexible and fixed investment options, the platform helps users move beyond simply earning money towards deliberately investing and building assets.
Toheeb Lanlehin, Senior Editor at Â鶹ÊÓƵ and Programming Lead for The Naira Life Conference, said:
“All About Wealth” leans on the premise that earning money is only one part of the wealth-building journey. People also need to understand how to maintain their momentum, grow assets, manage risk and make decisions that create long-term security.
“Our partnership with Yield by Credit Direct gives us an opportunity to nail that promise. We are creating a stage for important conversations about wealth and also building experiences that encourage attendees to reflect on their money, use practical tools and take meaningful action.â€
As Headline Sponsor, Yield by Credit Direct will be integrated across the conference’s programming and attendee experience. The partnership will include practical activities designed to help guests engage with their financial goals throughout the day.
Attendees will receive a Yield Checklist Card upon arrival at the conference. By completing selected activities, they can earn up to 2,000 Yield Naira, which can be used to play games and win instant prizes and cash rewards.
The activities will include writing an investment letter to their future selves, contributing to the Yield Tree, visiting and sharing content from the Yield Photo Booth, and activating, funding or gifting a Yield Plan.
Speaking on the partnership, Nifemi Oluboyede, Chief Product Officer at Credit Direct, said:
“One of the biggest gaps in personal finance isn’t access to opportunities, it’s turning intention into action. Many people want to invest and build wealth but don’t always know where to start or how to stay consistent. That’s why this partnership matters to us. We want to make wealth-building feel practical, accessible, and achievable for more Nigerians, one deliberate decision at a time.”
The Naira Life Conference 2026 will bring together professionals, entrepreneurs, investors, creators, business leaders and financially ambitious Nigerians for a day of practical conversations and experiences focused on economic mobility and long-term financial progress.
