President Bola Tinubu’s obstacle to a second term in office may not be Peter Obi, Atiku Abubakar and Rotimi Amaechi.
It will come from a totally unexpected quarters.
A young, refreshing lady, Juliet Onuoha, says she is all set to topple Tinubu in 2027 by giving to Nigerians what they have been yearning for.
While officially declaring her intention, Onuoha said she will run on the platform of the Youth Party.
She said her ambition is a generational movement focused on youth inclusion, economic reform and national development.
Announcing her candidacy in a post, Onuoha said her mission is to shift Nigeria “from potential to prosperity.” To achieve that, she said she would prioritise youth energy, innovation and integrity in governance.
Her words: “I am Onuoha Juliet, and I am officially declaring my intention to run for the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in 2027 under the Youth Party. Our mission is simple: to move from potential to prosperity by putting the energy, innovation, and integrity of the youth at the forefront of governance.
“It’s time for a new vision. It’s time for a new leadership. It’s time for us.”
In another post addressed to Nigerians, Onuoha said her ambition is more than a personal political pursuit. It is, instead,
a movement aimed at reshaping Nigeria’s future.
The key areas she would focus on are job creation, economic reform, women empowerment, support for small businesses, improved security and stable electricity supply.
Nigeria’s abundant resources and resilient population, according to her, should translate into better living conditions for citizens.
She said: “Nigeria is blessed. Blessed with oil. Blessed with talent. Blessed with resilient people who wake up every morning and refuse to give up. Yet too many of us are surviving instead of living. Too many dreams are delayed by poor leadership, corruption, insecurity, and a struggling economy. It does not have to be this way.”
She did not forget corruption and promised reforms in governance, anti-corruption efforts through transparency and technology, agricultural investment to boost food security, and policies to strengthen local production.
Onuoha: “We will build a Nigeria where electricity is stable, education is modern and accessible, healthcare is affordable, the Naira is respected, and hard work is rewarded.”
She, also stated that her campaign is not ethnicity, religion or partisan driven.
“This campaign is not about tribe. It is not about religion. It is not about party. It is about progress,” she declared.
Focusing on young people, women, entrepreneurs and Nigerians who feel disillusioned, Onuoha said:
“2027 is not just another election year. It is our reset year. Let us rise together. Let us rebuild together. Let us restore dignity, prosperity, and pride. The Nigeria we dream of is possible. The Nigeria we deserve is achievable. The Nigeria we will build starts now.”
