Are prophecies guess work or or are they instigated to increase members and followers?
The emergence of the All Progressives Congress (APC), presidential Candidate, Bola Tinubu as the President-elect in Nigeria has exposed some fake prophecies and declaration by renowned Pastors over the controversial election.
Fake Prophecy
Before the commencement of the 2023 general election, some renowned Christian clerics made certain prophetic declarations about the outcome of the polls.
Most of them named the candidate that will succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.
These pastors enjoy demonstrating to their crowd of followers that they have some supernatural ability. They want to prove they can hear from God in all most every circumstance.
Many of the prophets had predicted that the Labour Party (LP) candidate, Peter Obi would emerge the winner of the 2023 election.
Could their predictions be based on the momentum which the former Governor of Anambra had already gathered? Or was it truly the voice of God?. Again, one will wonder if there were manipulations that pushed Obi to the third position.
However, contrary to their prophecies, the former Governor of Lagos State, Bola Tinubu, was on Wednesday morning declared the winner of the February 25 presidential election in Nigeria.
Pastors With Correct Predictions
Four significant candidates fiercely contested for the presidential seat.
They include candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Tinubu, and his counterparts from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, Labour Party’s Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples’ Party (NNPP).
The following clerics made the correct declaration.
Prophet Bisi Olujobi
The founder of Wisdom Church of Christ International in Lagos, Bisi Olujobi, had predicted that Tinubu would win this year’s presidential election.
This was made known by the septuagenarian prophet in 40 prophecies released in a statement on January 3rd.
The septuagenarian prophet also revealed that Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State and Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State would not win re-election.
According to the cleric, the G-5 Peoples Democratic Party governors led by Governor Nyesom Wike will end up in disarray.
Olujobi’s declaration can be confirmed as correct after Wednesday morning’s declaration by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Prophet Odedoyin Olawumi Ezekiel
The Christ for All Souls Ministry president, Prophet Odedoyin Olawumi Ezekiel, had also predicted that Tinubu would emerge as the Nigeria president in 2023.
Ezekiel was said to have predicted this long before the primary elections in his church in Oshogbo, Osun State.
He declared that the former Governor of Lagos would emerge as APC presidential candidate and winner despite the party plot against him.
Rev (Dr.) David Oyediran
Also, the general superintendent of Glorious Vision World Outreach Ministries Lagos, Rev (Dr.) David Oyediran had, in one of his ministrations last year, spoke about Tinubu’s presidential ambition.
According to the cleric, God told him the APC presidential candidate would rule Nigeria constitutionally.
He said there would be peace and significant improvement in the nation’s economy.
Oyediran reminded his congregations of some past prophecies he had made that eventually came to pass.
“God said that among the few people that can provide credible leadership and restore hope to the people of Nigeria is Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” a publication quoted Oyediran as saying.
Coincidentally, Tinubu’s slogan was ‘Renewed Hope’.
Today, Tinubu is president-elect of the federal republic of Nigeria and so far, there is peace.
Although some of the opponents say they will go to court.
They claim that the election had flaws, demanding for cancelation and a fresh election.
