‘I warned Mimiko on PDP defeat in Ondo elections’ – Apostle Suleman reveals
The founder of Omega Fire Ministries, Auchi, Edo State, Apostle Johnson Suleman has advised leaders of the nation at all levels to always hearken to words of God and messages sent through His annointed servant for the nation and her people to progress. Suleman said this during last Sunday’s service in his church where the new Edo State governor, Godwin Obaseki visited for Thanksgiving.
The cleric who is noted for accurate prophecies and humanitarian services said this at the backdrop of the just concluded governorship election in Ondo State which ended the incumbent PDP reign.
According to Suleman, PDP would not have lost the governorship to APC if its leaders had heeded his 2014 divine message given at the Oba Adesida Hall, Akure, to seek God’s face in future elections. “PDP ignored God’s warning. I warned them, especially through the governor, Mimiko when I had a crusade in the Oba Adesida Hall, Akure in 2014. I gave the governor God’s message that the party should seek God in its future activities and it’s leaders must go on fasting and praying otherwise, its reign will end in another election.
The record is there. I specifically told Mimiko when he sent me a message seeking the way forward for himself and his party. I told him that God said he will be governor for a second term. I said God is ready to end your party’s reign except you pray and fast for a number of days. They ignored the warning. It was on the second day of that crusade that God revealed to me that a new governor with initials AK had been prepared for Mimiko’s seat,” said Suleman who on December 10th2016, will be leading a pack Gospel music ministers in the maiden edition of an evening of miracles, impartation and divine restoration aptly tagged ‘The Amazing Grace Jubilee Night of Praise’ which will be held at the headquarters of OFM.
Suleman charged Obaseki to work to the expectations of those who elected him and to also bring close to him those who didn’t vote for him and he should seek God at all times and obey His instructions. “We do not need money from your government. What we need is for you not to disappoint those who entrusted to you the office of governor and to be a governor for all. That will be to God’s glory and our pride,” Suleman implored.
“The first-of-its-kind programme will be a life-changing night in God’s presence, encountering Him, receiving prophetic ministry, impartation, healing, and the miraculous,” stated the God’s Oracle, adding that “it’s going to be a night of freedom where ministers of God will be releasing hope and joy to all who come. To stir you up, God’s glory has been pouring out in such a tangible way in our meetings… it’s been thick and heavy, with God releasing hope and joy and many will be caught up in the glory; God will be healing the sick, comforting the hurt, and restoring the lost.”
Meanwhile, living by example is Apostle Johnson Suleman’s mark. Outside his primary divine assignments like teaching and healing which are windows to advertise the gospel of Jesus Christ, his other passion is blessing lives and this enthusiasm for giving is helping a lot in bringing men faster to the feet of Jesus Christ.
For his giving spirit and divine gift of vision and healing, Suleman who just ended the Turkey and the Dallas Texas, America editions of his Ministry’s Raw Power Crusade, was honoured recently by the Students Union Government of the University of Benin with ‘Excellence and Ministerial Exploits’ award. The Turkey invasion brought men and women back on track and opened them up for insight into the mind of God through the clear-cut prophecies by Suleman. The servant of God, also because he is concerned about his people’s welfare, has just commissioned the ‘Jehovah the Doctor Observation Centre’, a well equipped special scheme raised to meet emergency needs of participants at meetings with Apostle Suleman. A number of church workers have been blessed with both cash and car gifts while many, on his support, are having their dreams fulfilled on a daily basis.
Nigeria’s Inflation Drops to 15.10% as NBS Reports Deflationary Trend
Nigeria’s headline inflation rate declined to 15.10 per cent in January 2026, marking a significant drop from 27.61 per cent recorded in January 2025, according to the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report released by the National Bureau of Statistics.
The report also showed that month-on-month inflation recorded a deflationary trend of –2.88 per cent, representing a 3.42 percentage-point decrease compared to December 2025. Analysts say the development signals easing price pressures across key sectors of the economy.
Food inflation stood at 8.89 per cent year-on-year, down from 29.63 per cent in January 2025. On a month-on-month basis, food prices declined by 6.02 per cent, reflecting lower costs in several staple commodities.
The data suggests a sustained downward trajectory in inflation over the past 12 months, pointing to improving macroeconomic stability.
The administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has consistently attributed recent economic adjustments to ongoing fiscal and monetary reforms aimed at stabilising prices, boosting agricultural output, and strengthening domestic supply chains.
Economic analysts note that while the latest figures indicate progress, sustaining the downward trend will depend on continued policy discipline, exchange rate stability, and improvements in food production and distribution.
The January report provides one of the clearest indications yet that inflationary pressures, which surged in early 2025, may be moderating.
