Prophet Odumeje, a prominent Nigerian religious leader, has revealed his plans to run for president in the 2027 elections.
He made this declaration during a recent sermon, stressing the importance of having a young, tech-savvy leader at the helm of the nation.
Odumeje believes that Nigeria is in need of a fresh perspective and a leader who is attuned to the challenges of modern governance. As a youthful leader, he is confident that he can bring the necessary change the country requires.
During his sermon, Odumeje asked his congregation whether they would support him in his presidential bid, affirming his readiness to lead the nation with the statement, “I know what you need.”
Though his announcement has sparked considerable attention, he has yet to disclose his political party affiliation or detailed campaign plans.
Reactions have been divided, with some expressing excitement about his candidacy, while others view it skeptically as a mere publicity stunt.
