Veteran Nollywood actress Patience Ozokwo, popularly known as Mama G, has openly declared her support for Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The respected actress made her position known while speaking at a political gathering organized under the banner, “Celebrities for Peter Obi,” where entertainers, supporters, and political advocates gathered to discuss the future of Nigeria and the need for national transformation.
Addressing the audience, Ozokwo expressed concern about the current state of the country, describing Nigeria as a “spoiled child” that requires responsible leadership, discipline, and proper direction to achieve its full potential. According to her, the nation possesses enormous human and natural resources but has struggled to maximize them due to leadership challenges over the years.
The actress stated that her decision to support Peter Obi is based on her belief that the former Anambra State governor represents a leadership style focused on accountability, prudence, and development. She urged Nigerians, particularly young people, to remain actively involved in the democratic process and to make informed decisions about the country’s future.
Ozokwo also emphasized the importance of citizens holding leaders accountable and working collectively toward building a better society. She noted that meaningful change can only be achieved when both leaders and citizens are committed to transparency, responsibility, and national progress.
Her endorsement adds to the growing number of entertainers and public figures who have publicly expressed support for Peter Obi as political conversations ahead of the 2027 elections continue to gain momentum across the country.
The event featured speeches, discussions, and calls for increased civic participation, with attendees highlighting the role of citizens in shaping Nigeria’s political future through peaceful and democratic means.
