The African Action Congress (AAC) governorship candidate for Abia State, Doris Ogala, has stirred reactions on social media after declaring that she would become the state’s next governor, insisting that Abia residents have “no choice” but to accept her leadership.
The Nollywood actress made the remarks during a TikTok Live session, a clip of which began circulating widely on Sunday, drawing mixed reactions from social media users ahead of the 2027 governorship election.
Speaking confidently during the livestream, Ogala said her victory 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?”
The comments quickly sparked debate online, with many users reacting to the tone and certainty of her declaration.
Ogala recently emerged as the AAC’s governorship candidate for the 2027 Abia governorship election, positioning herself to challenge the incumbent governor, Alex Otti.
Following her emergence, the actress vowed to unseat Otti, promising to focus on the welfare of Abia residents, create employment opportunities and stimulate economic growth if elected.
Before venturing into partisan politics, Ogala built a career in Nollywood and later became actively involved in political advocacy through the AAC, participating in campaigns and protests on issues affecting Abia State.
In June 2026, she was hospitalised after collapsing during a political consultation in Umuahia. She was admitted to the Federal Medical Centre, where she later interacted with patients from a wheelchair and prayed with them—an incident that also generated mixed reactions on social media.
