The Political Advantage Platform (PAP), one of Nigeria’s leading online political shows, has named 21-year-old Hadiza Malumfashi as its new host, signaling a bold shift toward youth inclusion in national conversations.
Hadiza, a third-year law student at the American University of Nigeria, is widely recognised for her bold views on governance, justice, and youth participation.
She gained national attention with her online series “If I Were President,” launched during the COVID-19 pandemic to spark dialogue on youth-led solutions to Nigeria’s leadership challenges.
Her early foray into advocacy began with debate competitions and the founding of “Peace in Nigeria” at age 16 — a grassroots initiative promoting unity and leadership accountability.
She later established the NGO “Change Begins With Me,” which champions gender equality, access to clean water, and climate action through community-based projects like well construction and tree planting.
Beyond activism, Hadiza is a published writer, with a collection of short stories and children’s activity books that promote peacebuilding and civic responsibility.
Her appointment as the face of PAP reflects a growing demand for fresh voices and fearless commentary in Nigeria’s political media space. Known for her eloquence and unapologetic stance on youth empowerment, Hadiza is expected to bring a new level of engagement to the platform’s political analysis and civic conversations.
With her new role, PAP aims to strengthen its mission of fostering informed civic participation and promoting leadership accountability through dynamic, youth-driven dialogue.
