Nollywood actress and African Action Congress (AAC) governorship candidate for Abia State, Doris Ogala, has stirred reactions after declaring that residents of the state have “no choice” but to accept her as their next governor.
Ogala made the remarks during a TikTok Live session, a clip of which began circulating widely on social media on Sunday ahead of the 2027 governorship election.
Expressing confidence in her chances at the polls, the actress said her emergence as governor was divinely ordained.
“I, Doris Ogala, as your governor, you don’t have choice. Doris will be your governor, you don’t have choice. God has said it, so shall it be. It is very simple, why don’t you get that?” she said.
The statement has since generated mixed reactions online, with supporters and critics weighing in on her bold declaration.
Ogala recently emerged as the AAC’s governorship candidate for Abia State ahead of the 2027 general elections. Following her emergence, she pledged to unseat the incumbent governor, Alex Otti, promising to prioritise residents’ welfare, create jobs and drive economic growth if elected.
