AAC Governorship Candidate, Doris Ogala Reportedly Remanded at Ikoyi Correctional Centre Over Alleged Cyberstalking
Doris Ogala, the African Action Congress (AAC) governorship candidate in Abia State ahead of the 2027 general elections, has reportedly been remanded at the Ikoyi Correctional Centre in Lagos over an alleged cyberstalking case involving popular cleric, Pastor Chris Okafor.
The development reportedly occurred on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, following court proceedings in the case.
Ogala is said to have been remanded pending the hearing of her bail application.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Abia governorship candidate shared a video reportedly recorded at the court premises, confirming her presence in connection with the ongoing legal proceedings.
However, details of the specific charges against her, the circumstances surrounding the court’s remand order and the scheduled date for the hearing of her bail application have yet to be independently verified.
Attempts to obtain Ogala’s comments on the reported development were unsuccessful as of the time of filing this report.
Ogala, who is seeking to become the next governor of Abia State under the AAC platform, has maintained a visible presence in political and public-interest discussions ahead of the 2027 elections.
The reported legal development comes as political activities gradually gather momentum ahead of the next general elections, with prospective candidates positioning themselves for the contest.
It is important to emphasise that a remand order does not amount to a conviction. The allegations against Ogala remain subject to judicial determination, and she is presumed innocent unless proven guilty by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Further details are expected to emerge as proceedings continue and more verified information 
becomes available.
