Brother Joshua Iginla: Countering Fake Prophecies

Brother Joshua Iginla: Countering Fake Prophecies

Patrick Iwelunmor

 

 

As events (including political campaigns and all forms of mudslinging) leading to the 2023 presidential elections gathered momentum, this writer observed with cautious sentiment how supporters of the two most important political parties in Nigeria engaged one another in very unpalatable manners, to the extent that physical assaults became inevitable. For the OBIdients, Bola Ahmed Tinubu lacked what it takes to become President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Their opinionated stance on Tinubu’s candidacy was further fueled by very disturbing prophecies given by some Nigerian prophets who boasted about their close affinity to the Throne of Heaven. Some of them had it that Tinubu would not live to see his inauguration, even if he maneuvered his way to victory in the elections. Others said he was going to be arrested by the military on inauguration day.

 

 

 

 

Those “prophecies” created fear in the minds of many BATists and also derailed national confidence with regards to the security of lives and property. This writer was one of those who feared that Nigeria could be on the brink of another civil war with the level of ethnic hatred and acrimony animated by the spate of unfounded rumour-mongering coupled with reckless prophetic dissipations that put everyone on edge. However, in the midst of the dark cloud of uncertainty and unease unleashed on our national psyche by prophets of doom, one humble servant of God who prefers to be addressed as Brother Joshua Iginla changed my perspective to the unfolding political theatrics in black Africa’s most populous nation. He had prophesied that the most hated and criticized candidate would emerge as Nigeria’s 16th President.

 

 

 

That prophetic declaration got me reflecting on life and the insanity of human opinions in the sight of God. I began to realize that if God were to be as some Nigerians painted Him, Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the APC would never be President of Nigeria, going by the very terrible and terrifying allegations levelled against him by his political opponents. Again, Brother Joshua Iginla’s prophecy reminded me that God’s ways and thinking are not the same as those of man. There are ample exemplifications in the Holy Bible where God took decisions that altered human reality and expectations, largely because of His omniscient and unquestionable nature. Who would have believed that David, among all of Jesse’s sons, would ever ascend the throne in Israel?

 

 

 

 

 

One thing Christians should learn from Brother Joshua Iginla’s prophecy about the 2023 Presidential elections is the fact that God’s mind cannot be mirrored through intuitive vituperations mostly borne out of anger, hatred, and frustration as seen in many Nigerian social media preachers who call themselves prophets. How can you wish a man dead simply because you do not like his style, tribe and religion? Remember, God Himself said He would have mercy on whom He pleases, irrespective of the person’s past, age and other worldly criteria. That I do not like Tinubu does not mean that God has rejected Him. In fact, I voted for Peter Obi but in my mind, I was psychologically prepared for any eventuality because I have tried to understand that one of the characteristics of God is springing surprises against the run of play. Despite the widespread hatred and condemnation of his candidacy, Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the APC emerged the 16th President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. If it was not the will of God, it would not have been possible. Where are those prophets of doom who almost tore the country apart with their satanical prophetic permutations?

 

 

 

 

While I will continue to support Peter Obi as long as he continues to aspire to the highest office in the land, I will also face the reality of a Tinubu Presidency and pray that God uses him to make the country better for all Nigerians, irrespective of age, gender, ethnicity, and religion. Let us learn to be liberal in our thoughts and expectations and accept the will of God at all times. LET LOVE LEAD!

The statement noted that Buratai, who served as Chief of Army Staff and later as ambassador, had throughout his career demonstrated discipline, professionalism and respect for constitutional authority.
According to Mohammed, the retired lieutenant general has consistently expressed support for the Tinubu administration and its Renewed Hope agenda, particularly in the areas of national security, youth empowerment and national cohesion.

 

He said, “Gen. Buratai remains a committed Nigerian statesman who has always placed national interest above personal politics.”
The statement further described reports linking Buratai to alleged anti-government activities as “baseless, politically motivated and aimed at creating unnecessary division.”

Mohammed urged Nigerians to disregard what he called attempts at blackmail and misinformation, insisting that Buratai’s public record and engagements reflect his continued support for the current administration.

“His actions and public record speak louder than online rumours,” the statement added.
The supporters also called on the public to remain focused on issues that promote national development and unity rather than social media speculation.

General Buratai Backs Son’s Political Ambition, Calls For Greater Youth Inclusion In Governance

 

Former Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Yusuf Buratai, has urged Nigerians to support young people in pursuing their dreams and taking active roles in politics, as he publicly endorsed the political ambition of his son, Tukur Buratai Jnr.

Buratai, a former Nigerian Ambassador to the Republic of Benin, made the call in a statement shared on his verified Facebook page, where he expressed support for his son’s decision to contest for the Biu Constituency seat in the Borno State House of Assembly under the platform of the All Progressives Congress⁠�.

According to the retired military chief, Nigeria’s future depends largely on its youthful population, stressing that excluding young people from governance and leadership would hinder national growth and development.

He noted that Nigerian youths should not merely be regarded as leaders of tomorrow, but as active contributors and solution providers capable of shaping the country’s future today.

Buratai further emphasized the need to create opportunities and an enabling environment for young Nigerians to thrive politically, economically, and socially, describing youth inclusion as critical to nation-building.

The endorsement of Captain Buratai Jnr, a pilot, is being viewed by political observers as a symbolic transfer of leadership ideals, discipline, and patriotism from one generation to another.

His candidacy is also expected to inject youthful energy and fresh perspectives into legislative representation in Biu Constituency ahead of future political contests.

As preparations gradually begin towards the next electoral cycle, Buratai’s message is likely to resonate among young Nigerians seeking greater participation in governance and public service.
