Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has donated seven 18-seater hybrid compressed natural gas (CNG) buses to the Youth Wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria (YOWICAN), in a move aimed at enhancing the mobility and outreach activities of Christian youths across the nation.
The donation was announced on Saturday during the YOWICAN National Convention and official bus presentation ceremony held at the National Christian Centre, Abuja.
Expressing gratitude on behalf of the youth body, YOWICAN National Chairman, Belusochukwu Enwere, hailed the First Lady for what he described as “a remarkable gesture of empowerment and faith in the potential of young Christians.”
He noted that the convention, themed “Shine Bright: Reflecting God’s Glory” — inspired by Matthew 5:16 — was a reminder of the spiritual responsibility of Christian youths to be “beacons of hope” and “vessels of divine light” in today’s morally challenging world.

“In a world shrouded in darkness — plagued by uncertainty, division, and moral challenges — we, the youth of Christ’s body, are called to be vessels of divine light that illuminate paths and draw souls to the glory of God,” Enwere said.
The hybrid buses are expected to support YOWICAN’s nationwide outreach initiatives and improve their capacity to engage in faith-based community development programs.
