Nollywood actress and African Action Congress (AAC) governorship candidate for Abia State in the 2027 elections, Doris Ogala, was rushed to the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Umuahia, on Friday, June 5, 2026, after reportedly losing consciousness during a consultation. Videos circulating on social media showed Ogala collapsing earlier in the day before being quickly taken to the hospital. She later shared an update on her Instagram page, stating, "I was rushed to FMC Umuahia. I lost consciousness. Glory to God I am stabilised now." While at the hospital, Ogala was seen in a wheelchair interacting with patients and staff.
