Controversial Nollywood actress, Uche Ogbodo, has publicly declared her support for her colleague, Doris Ogala, who is seeking to become the governor of Abia State under the African Action Congress (AAC).
Ogbodo expressed her support in an Instagram post where she shared Ogala’s campaign poster and highlighted their more than 18-year friendship.
According to the actress, her endorsement was based on her personal knowledge of Ogala’s character, resilience and commitment to the people, rather than public sentiment.
“I have known Doris Ogala for over 18 years, and I can confidently say that she is a woman of strength, courage, resilience and determination,” Ogbodo wrote.
She said she had watched Ogala navigate various challenges, stand her ground and remain connected to those around her.
Ogbodo further described leadership as more than occupying an office or holding a political title, stressing that effective leadership requires understanding, listening to and working for the people.
“As she steps forward with the AAC, I am proud to publicly share my personal support for her journey,” she added.
The actress urged Abia residents and other Nigerians to pay attention to Ogala’s political campaign, examine her vision and make informed decisions about the future of the state.
“Doris, I know you. I know your heart. I know your strength. And I know the kind of woman you are,” Ogbodo stated, concluding her message with a call for public discourse on Ogala’s political ambition.
