Nollywood actress turned politician Doris Ogala has sent shockwaves across Abia State and beyond with her fiery declaration that she will become the next governor, insisting residents have no choice in the matter because God has already decreed it.
The African Action Congress (AAC) governorship candidate for the 2027 election made the bold statement in a viral video that has sparked massive reactions online.
“You don’t have a choice in Abia. I’ll be your governor; God has said it, and so shall it be. It’s very simple, why don’t you get that?” Doris Ogala thundered.
The actress, who recently clinched the AAC ticket, positioned herself as a divine deliverer sent to rescue the state from its challenges. Her confident and unapologetic tone has left many amused, bewildered, and divided, with some hailing her boldness while others mock the divine endorsement claim.
Doris Ogala’s political journey has been nothing short of dramatic. She emerged as the party’s flagbearer after winning the primary, promising to liberate Abia and prioritise the people’s welfare. Her entry into politics follows a high-profile personal saga, including a publicized feud with Pastor Chris Okafor, which she claims to have legally overcome.
The video has ignited heated debates on social media, with netizens drawing parallels between her acting career and her political ambition of running against Alex Otti. Some see it as classic Nollywood flair injected into serious politics, while supporters view it as fearless faith in action.
Whether her bold prophecy will translate into electoral victory remains to be seen, but it is clear that she is not backing down.
