At the beginning of every year, men of God (Christians and
Muslims) come up with prophetic utterances which they expect to shape
the people’s mindset for the year.
The outgoing year is not an exemption, as there were series of
prophecies by revered men and prophets of God on what will happen in
Nigeria, especially as it hosted the general elections that ushered in a
different administration.
The list below, as compiled by Leadership, shows some of those prophecies which refused to manifest in the course of the year.
1. Prophet Olaniyi Odutayo
Prophet Olaniyi Odutayo of the World Prophetic Church, Ikeja, had in
the countdown to the March 28, 2015 presidential poll affirmed that God
revealed to him that President Goodluck Jonathan would defeat three
strong contenders to emerge victorious.
He said: “During the prayer/fasting, the Lord showed me three men
trying to bury Goodluck Jonathan. Each one of them was trying to bury
him one after the other, but as they pushed down his head, he rose up again. After the third man
pushed down his head, he thought he had prevailed, he was already
jubilating but suddenly Goodluck rose up.”
2. Prophet Joseph Oladipupo
Prophet Joseph Oladipupo is the shepherd in charge of Faith and
Victory Church located in Akure, the Ondo State capital and one of those
whose prophecies concerning the 2015 presidential elections never were.
According to him, God said Muhammadu Buhari, the major challenger of the then incumbent president, Jonathan, would not win.
The prophecy was that “The upcoming election will be very tough for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) but they will win the presidency.”
3. Primate Elijah Ayodele
In January, 2013, founder and General Overseer of Inri Evangelical
Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, predicted that God showed him
Jonathan would continue to rule till 2019.
He said: “The 2015 elections will hold but will be peaceful in
some areas and not in other areas. As it is, from what I see at the
moment, PDP will win, amidst serious criticism.”
4. Apostle Johnson Suleman
“With the level of bloodshed I saw, it is better Goodluck goes
now to his village quietly. 2015 election is another June 12. The man
who truly won will not govern or rule,” were the words of Apostle
Johnson Suleiman of Auchi-based Omega Fire Ministry, implying that
Jonathan was favoured to win but after that, violence may consume him.
5. Alhaji Musa Ayeni
Alhaji Musa Ayeni was the Presidential candidate of the African
Peoples Alliance (APA) and told newsmen that he had been ordained by God
to take over the mantle of leadership from President Jonathan after May
29.
“I came into the race because God directed me to contest the
election. God told me categorically that I will succeed President
Goodluck Jonathan and I believe what God says, hence, my resolve to
contest the forthcoming presidential election,” Ayeni said.
6. Prophet Paul Okikiiesu
A Lagos-based prophet, Paul Okikijesu, was not quite clear with his
prediction, but said correctly that Buhari might be voted for.
According to him: “If Buhari can surrender his heart to me, he
will win the election. Nevertheless despite people’s mandate, they will
neither release power to him nor swear him in as the president of the
nation. His situation will be similar to Abiola that had people’s
mandate, but was not given the chance to rule the country.”
7. Guru Maharaji
Sat Guru Maharaji, the spiritual leader of One Love Family, stated categorically that, “There
is no vacancy for Buhari at Aso Rock. President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan
is the verifiable divine choice of the forthcoming presidential
election.”
8. Prophet Micheal Olubode
Prophet Micheal Olubode of the Celestial Church of Christ (CCC) was
also sure of Goodluck Jonathan’s victory, declaring emphatically: “I
want to let the people of Nigeria know that The Lord will return His
Excellency, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to his presidential seat.”
9. Apostle B. B Frederick
Even Apostle B.B Frederick, a Ghanaian, declared based on ‘inspiration of the Almighty’ that “President Jonathan is the set man for Nigeria and his next term on the seat will bring liberation to Nigeria.”
10. Prophet Godfrey Gbujie
Prophet Godfrey Gbujie, who had predicted the deaths of former
military ruler, Gen Sani Abacha and former president, Shehu Yar’Adua,
told newsmen in Owerri that neither Goodluck Ebele Jonathan nor Gen
Muhammadu Buhari would win in 2015.
His prediction was that, “Buhari has a mission divinely imposed
on him, but he shall not rule this country again; even if he wins, God
has not determined him to find His favour. Jonathan is the last elected
president of this country.”
11. Pastor Dapo Adeniyi
Pastor Dapo Adeniyi stated that while Buhari may have good agendas to
eradicate corruption in Nigeria, it was unfortunate that he would not
win the election.
He said: “Though he will give Ebele Jonathan tough time, he will
accuse the PDP of rigging the election, go to court but justice will not
prevail. What a pity! I see him fainting and uncooperative to ensure
the peace of Nigeria after his defeat.”
12. Dr Okhue Iboi
The national coordinator and spokesman of Witches and Wizards
Association of Nigeria (WITZAN), Dr Okhue Iboi also had his prediction.
He said: “I don’t see General Mohammadu Buhari ruling this
country. We don’t have a political party but if anyone seeks our help,
we shall render it. There was a time witches in Benue State invited
other witches across the country to offer prayers for the Senate
President, David Mark, against impeachment. We flew to Otukpo and later
to a village called Owetor. That was where we offered the prayers.”
13. Reverend Saviour Awusi
Reverend Saviour Awusi, the founder and General Overseer of God’s
Divine Favour Evangelical Church, Okota, Lagos also made prophecies at
the beginning of the year.
“Thus says the Lord: ‘By my mercy, President Jonathan would surely
win this year’s presidential election. And all those who are against him
shall be put to shame,” he said.
14. Babatunde Elijah Ayodele
The founder of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Oke-Afa, Isolo,
Lagos, Babatunde Elijah Ayodele, came up with some prophecies too.
Aehad of the election, he said: “Kaduna is going to be very
bloody. PDP may take Kaduna, but it’s going to be by narrow margin.
Yobe, Gombe, Benue, Delta, Akwa Ibom, all those states will be won by
PDP.”
On the presidential election, the man of God said: “This election
is a lesson for him and there are still lessons for him to learn if he
now gets it back. He still needs a lot of prayers. But in the midst of
all the ups and downs, he may still have a very slim chance of winning
the election. I don’t see any landslide victory at all between him and
Buhari. At the end of the day, PDP will win the federal, but the party
will crash after the election.”
15. Archbishop John Obiokeke
Archbishop John Obiokeke of God Pentecostal Mission Churches is
reputed to have made some predictions which came to pass. However, his
predictions on the 2015 presidential election seem to have missed the
mark.
“God is saying that there is no vacancy in Aso Rock. For reasons best
known to him, Jonathan, even though will rig, is still going to be the
president,” he predicted.
16. Pastor Success Ibeakanma
Pastor Success Ibeakanma, the senior pastor of Royal Choice
Ministries, Lagos, made a prophecy early this year pointing to the 2015
election. He said: “In the presidential election of 2015, APC will try but PDP will win.”
17. Primate Theophilus O. Olabayo
Theophilus Olabayo, the founder of Evangelical Church of Yahweh,
Lagos, somehow got it wrong on who had the divine seal to win the
presidential election, and also missed the target on who was to become
Lagos state governor.
“God has revealed to me that if at all there is going to be a
presidential election, it will be inconclusive just like the June 12,
1993, election that we had during the time of late Chief M.K.O Abiola,” the Primate stated.
“Jimi Agbaje will have more support of the people, and this is what
will cause uproar in some circles if at all there is going to be an
election. Jimi Agbaje will have the upper-hand because the candidate
that should have won the election for APC was not given the chance to be
presented as the party’s governorship candidate in Lagos. APC should
have presented Ganiyu Solomon, he was God’s anointed candidate,” he
stated about the Lagos state governorship polls.
18. Pastor Emeka Agwu
Pastor Emeka Agwu, the General Overseer, Voice of Evangelism
International, Houston, Texas, USA in a prayer session organised for Dr
Jonathan’s victory ahead of the election, stated: “They want Jonathan
resigned or changed, but God has given Jonathan the 2015 election key of
victory.”
19. Brother Joshua Iginla
Prophet Joshua Iginla is the founder of Champions Royal Assembly, a
new-generation church based in Abuja. He also made predictions about the
presidential election.
He said: “I am not a politician nor do I belong to any political
party. I am just speaking God’s mind. The person sitting on the seat
might not be perfect but he will retain the seat. It’s not guesswork…
President Jonathan will win, but he has to pray about his health and so
many political blows.”
