2027: Young lady announces plan to run for president against Tinubu, unveils political party
A young Nigerian lady, Onuoha Juliet, has officially declared her intention to contest the 2027 presidential election.
Juliet announced that she will run under the platform of the Youth Party, positioning her ambition as a generational movement focused on youth inclusion, economic reform and national development.
Her declaration sets the stage for a potential face-off with incumbent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and other expected contenders in the 2027 race.
A “New Vision” for Nigeria
In a post announcing her candidacy, Juliet said her mission is to shift Nigeria “from potential to prosperity” by prioritising youth energy, innovation and integrity in governance.
“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,” she said.
She added, “It’s time for a new vision. It’s time for a new leadership. It’s time for us.”
Focus on Economy, Youth and Security
In a longer message addressed to Nigerians, Juliet framed her ambition as more than a personal political pursuit. She described it as a movement aimed at reshaping Nigeria’s future.
She highlighted key areas including job creation, economic reform, women empowerment, support for small businesses, improved security and stable electricity supply.
According to her, Nigeria’s abundant resources and resilient population should translate into better living conditions for citizens.
“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 said.
Promises of Reform
Juliet promised reforms in governance, anti-corruption efforts through transparency and technology, agricultural investment to boost food security, and policies to strengthen local production.
“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 stated.
She emphasised that her campaign is not driven by ethnicity, religion or partisan interests but by national progress.
“This campaign is not about tribe. It is not about religion. It is not about party. It is about progress,” she declared.
Call for Collective Action
Addressing young people, women, entrepreneurs and Nigerians who feel disillusioned, Juliet called for unity ahead of 2027.
“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.”
