Nigerian ‘Prophet’ T.B. Joshua has released another controversial YouTube clip, claiming he predicted the tragic Russian plane crash in Egypt well over one year ago.
On Sunday 31st August 2014, the cleric, who is famed for his alleged ability to foretell the future, warned of an impending plane crash involving Russia.
“It will not be between Ukraine and Russia this time but a close region, a neighbouring region,” he stated, warning passenger planes to be careful of the routes they take over such volatile areas.
“I am seeing a full load of passengers crash again,” he declared.
On Saturday 31st October 2015, a Russian jet tragically crashed while flying across the Sinai peninsula in Egypt en-route to St Petersburg, killing all 224 on board.
“We pray for all those involved in this tragic incident, that God would comfort and strengthen them in this difficult time,” the clip on the YouTube channel ‘Emmanuel TV’ concluded.
Joshua’s initial prediction was published in September 2014 on several online news sites within Africa where he has an especially large following.
The Nigerian Pastor is well known for his ‘prophecies’. His YouTube channel, which boasts nearly 250,000 subscribers, has videos purportedly showing him predicting the Malaysian Airlines MH370 mystery disappearance, the death of Michael Jackson and the terrorist attacks on the Charlie Hebdo Magazine in Paris amongst others.
