Doris Ogala Declares Herself Abia’s ‘Messiah,’ Vows to Be Best Governor in 2027
Nollywood actress and African Action Congress (AAC) governorship candidate Doris Ogala has described herself as the “messiah” sent to rescue oppressed Abia women and residents, insisting that her emergence as governor in 2027 is already assured by God.
In a recent interview, Ogala challenged critics who dismiss her as “just a content creator” and “not serious,” asking why they appear afraid of her if their “hands are clean.”
“The fear of Doris Ogala is the beginning of wisdom. If your hands are clean, you have nothing to fear,” she said. “I hear people say ‘she is just a content creator,’ ‘she is not serious,’ so why are you afraid?”
Ogala claimed that the moment she obtained her nomination form, “all the oppressed, every Abia woman stood up and knew their messiah is here to rescue them.” She linked the reported panic among opponents to divine intervention that cannot be stopped.
“That is why you see everywhere helter-skelter; they are running up and down because they can’t stop God’s work. And come 2027, I will be the best governor,” she declared.
She painted a picture of widespread hardship under the current administration, stating that Abians are “tired and crying because we have oppressors leading us” and that many people are too scared to speak out.
Ogala alleged that shops were demolished in an exercise she claimed was orchestrated by the deputy governor. She said she gave affected persons ₦200 each. She further asserted that the poverty rate in Abia is higher than the national average.
On claims that Governor Alex Otti had cleared workers’ arrears, Ogala said she discovered upon returning to the state that the announcement was a “decoy.” According to her, the affected people told her they had been deceived and remain unpaid.
Ogala, who emerged as the AAC candidate earlier this year, is expected to challenge the incumbent Labour Party governor and other candidates in the 2027 election.
