The scientist-turned-pastor stated this at the headquarters of the church during the sermon on Sunday, September 10.

“You see what happened in Nigeria during these last elections, disgraced the religion of Christianity very well. This prophet said this person would win, and this would not win.”

“‘If this one wins, I will become a herbalist, if this one wins, let them cut off my hand, if this one wins this, this one will die before his wish.’

“All did not come to pass, and they call themselves prophets. Prophets of where? It is madness when you begin to say what God does not ask you to say. The pulpit in the house of God is the pillar and ground of truth. It is not for political campaigns.”

Also, as think-tank organizations, both local and international, release election forecasts using different parameters, religious clerics, usually pastors, release “prophecies” on who will win.

This report highlights some of the top “prophecies.”
