Founder of the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry, Prophet Chukwuemeka Cyril Ohanaemere, popularly known as Odumeje or Indabosky, has declared his intention to contest for president in the 2027 presidential election.

During a sermon on Sunday, March 9, 2025, Odumeje stated that the country needs a young leader like himself and not the “old cargoes” currently in the running of the office.

His comments were met with applause and cheers from his congregation.

He said, “We need a young leader in this country, and I think I’m coming out.”

“We need a young leader in this country as a president. A digital leader, not old cargos," he added.

Odumeje repeatedly asked his congregation if they were ready to see him become the next president.

He asked, “I think I will come out. Odumeje for the President.” “Are you ready for me? Are you ready for the president?” he asked. Adding that, “Because I know what you need. Amen.”

The prophet did not disclose any plans to join a political party or outline a campaign strategy.

His announcement has attracted several reactions from Nigerians on social media.
