About REHYA

Catalysts for Change, Architects of National Renewal

Empowering Nigeria's Youth Majority

Nigeria's youth are the heartbeat of the nation—energetic, innovative, and determined to shape a brighter future. With over 60% of the population under 30, their inclusion in governance and political structures is not just desirable, it is essential.

The Renewed Hope Youth Ambassador Initiative was created to harness this demographic strength, empowering young people to become leaders, advocates, and mobilizers within the All Progressives Congress (APC) and across the country.

The Voice of Youth

They are the voice, heart, and hands of a generation determined to shape a brighter future—mobilizing communities and advocating for inclusive policies.

Bridge to Government

Rooted in patriotism and driven by purpose, ambassadors serve as bridges between government and youth, amplifying the aspirations of millions.
