Meanwhile, The Herald gathered that Pastor Olayiwola Mercy, head of Divine universal Church of Christ International, Oke-Ata Abeokuta, Ogun State, predicted that Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s ambition to be the next President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is doomed to fail.
News of Tinubu’s ambition to contest in the next presidential election has been rumoured in the past few months, however, according to the Cleric, who is popular for predictions on matters regarding the country, particularly political issues, God said Ahmed Tinubu is merely a “King Maker”, and not a “King”,
He said: “God told me that the north is not ready to let go in 2023 and the Southwest which is next to produce the president must unite in order to be able to get to Aso Rock after the incumbent president.
“If the northern elements fail to achieve their objective, they will look for a stooge that will be puppet-strung from the Southwest and support him to emerge president. To escape this trap, the region must work together to ensure the plans of the northern cabal falls through.
“God told me that Tinubu should forget about contesting for the presidency in 2023 because he will fail. Though he is the undisputed leader of the Yoruba people, he is only destined to be a kingmaker and not a king.
“Rather, he should throw his weight behind a candidate from the Southwest and remain behind the scene. God said this is best for him and any attempt to disregard this message and warning and force his way into the presidential contest, he might be faced with the unpalatable situation. Anybody who knows Tinubu should please convey this to him, God does not lie”.
Speaking about the deliberations about the possible division in Nigeria, and the necessity of the southwest to stay united in order to wrest power from the north, the cleric said; “Many people are afraid that the country may break up because of insecurity and agitations by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB). God said that no matter how vociferous the agitations become, Nigeria will not break up. Whatever the situation, the country will remain one indivisible nation”.
