The celebrity businessman disclosed this via his Instagram page, stating that he will run on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), a move he described as strategic and carefully calculated.

According to him, aligning with the ruling party provides a stronger opportunity to influence decisions at the federal level, particularly in advocating for the release of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
