Odumeje Declares Presidential Ambition, Vows To Lead As Nigeria’s ‘Digital Leader’
Popular Nigerian cleric and self-styled “Indaboski,” Prophet Chukwuemeka Odumeje, has announced his intention to contest for Nigeria’s presidency, declaring himself the leader the country needs.
Speaking to an energized crowd, the controversial prophet emphasized the need for a youthful, technology-driven leader rather than the “old cargoes” who have long dominated the nation’s political space.
“We need a young leader in this country, and I think I’m coming out. We need a young leader as president—a digital leader, not old cargoes. I think I will come out for president,” Odumeje declared, drawing loud cheers from his supporters.
The cleric, known for his unconventional preaching style and viral social media presence, further rallied his audience, asking, “Are you ready for me?”—a question that was met with enthusiastic affirmations.
With confidence, Odumeje solidified his declaration: “Odumeje for President! Because I know what you need.”
While the specifics of his political agenda remain unclear, his declaration has already stirred conversations across social media, with reactions ranging from amusement to curiosity.
As Nigerians prepare for the next election cycle, Odumeje’s unexpected political ambition adds a dramatic twist to the nation’s already vibrant political landscape.
