Obi Would Defeat Even Jesus at the Polls”: Viral Remark Sparks Political Debate Online

By George Omagbemi Sylvester

A viral statement by a prominent supporter of former Anambra State governor and Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi has ignited widespread reactions across Nigeria’s political landscape. The supporter, popularly known as Mama Pee, declared during a live social media broadcast earlier this week that “If Jesus comes down to contest in Nigeria, Obi go win am,” a remark intended to emphasize Obi’s perceived popularity among his core supporters.

 

The comment, which surfaced on X and Facebook, quickly generated sharp responses from supporters of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). While many Labour Party loyalists defended the statement as political exaggeration, critics described it as reflective of growing personality-driven politics.

 

Obi, who contested the 2023 presidential election under the Labour Party and placed third according to official results released by the Independent National Electoral Commission, has not issued any public response to the remark.

 

The episode underscores the continued intensity of political engagement following the 2023 general elections, with online discourse increasingly shaping narratives around Nigeria’s evolving democratic space.

Grace Nation: “The Prince of Persia Operates Everywhere—Even in the Church” — Dr Chris Okafor

Grace Nation: “The Prince of Persia Operates Everywhere—Even in the Church” — Dr Chris Okafor

…Covenant determines outcomes

…Breaking negative patterns requires sacrifice and spiritual discipline

Understanding the root and dynamics of life’s challenges is essential to overcoming them. Many struggles—particularly recurring family patterns and generational curses—persist because they are not properly identified or addressed.

 

Ignorance, in many cases, prolongs such cycles of limitation.

 

These insights formed the core of the teaching by the Generational Prophet and Senior Pastor of Grace Nation Global, Dr Chris Okafor, during a recent service at the church’s international headquarters in Ojodu Berger, Lagos.

 

 

Speaking on the series “Dealing with Ungodly Patterns and Curses,” Dr Okafor emphasized that being a Christian does not automatically exempt an individual from inherited patterns or curses.

 

According to the Generational Prophet, for such patterns to be broken, someone must take responsibility and apply the required spiritual principles.

He described curses as “spiritual programs designed to enforce failure,” noting that while the sacrifice of Jesus Christ offers redemption, believers must still follow divine instructions to experience complete freedom. “Deliverance is not accidental; it is enforced through understanding and obedience,” he stated.

 

The “Prince of Persia” Influence

 

Dr Okafor highlighted what he referred to as the “Prince of Persia” spirit—a force that resists spiritual progress and keeps individuals in bondage.

He explained that this influence can manifest anywhere, including within the church, by creating distractions and weakening spiritual focus.

 

According to him, this force often diverts attention through modern channels, particularly digital platforms. Instead of engaging with spiritual growth, individuals may become consumed with gossip, misinformation, and distractions that ultimately disconnect them from their source of help.

Breaking Free from Patterns and Curses

 

The cleric outlined practical steps for overcoming negative patterns:

 

Commitment to God: Genuine service and dedication establish a covenant relationship with God.

 

Consistent Prayer: Persistent and strategic prayer invites divine intervention.

Spiritual Discipline: Obedience to divine principles strengthens one’s resistance against negative influences.

He stressed that when these principles are applied, God intervenes and grants victory over recurring challenges.

 

Testimonies of Transformation

 

The service also featured testimonies highlighting what participants described as divine intervention.

 

One notable case involved a woman previously scheduled for a surgical procedure costing millions of naira. After prayers during a prior service, she reportedly experienced healing and later received medical confirmation of her recovery. She returned to share her testimony during the April 12, 2026 service.

Community Outreach

 

 

The Charity Sunday service concluded with the distribution of food items to widows and underprivileged members of the Ojodu Berger community, reflecting the church’s ongoing humanitarian efforts.

Overall, the service combined teaching, testimonies, and outreach, reinforcing the church’s emphasis on spiritual growth, practical faith, and community impact.

Buratai Defends Jilli Market Airstrike, Says Target Was Terrorist Logistics Hub

Why Gen. Buratai will always remain in the minds of Nigerians-Enyioma

Buratai Defends Jilli Market Airstrike, Says Target Was Terrorist Logistics Hub

Former Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai (rtd.), CFR, has defended the recent Nigerian Air Force airstrike on Jilli Market along the Borno–Yobe border, describing it as a “necessary military action” against a long-established terrorist logistics hub.
In a statement issued on Sunday, Buratai expressed concern over reports of civilian casualties, noting that over fifty persons were reportedly killed and several others injured in the operation. He described the loss of innocent lives as “deeply unfortunate and painful,” but maintained that the armed forces acted on credible intelligence.
According to him, intelligence reports indicated that Boko Haram and ISWAP elements had been using the weekly market to impose illegal levies, procure supplies, and coordinate attacks.
He further argued that Jilli Market had long been associated with insurgent activity, recalling that Nigerian troops had previously carried out operations in the area, including during earlier military campaigns aimed at dislodging terrorist elements.
Buratai maintained that while civilian harm was regrettable, the responsibility lay with insurgents who allegedly operate within civilian spaces.
“No military wishes to harm civilians,” he said, adding that continued use of such locations by armed groups leaves security forces with difficult operational choices.
He urged residents in surrounding communities including Geidam, Gubio, Damasak, and Ngamdu to avoid patronising markets or routes allegedly linked to insurgent activity, stressing the importance of civilian cooperation with security agencies.
Buratai commended the Nigerian Armed Forces and intelligence community for what he described as a professional and intelligence-driven operation, insisting that sustained military pressure and public cooperation were key to defeating insurgency in the region.
He concluded with a call for unity in the fight against terrorism, while expressing sympathy for victims of the strike and wishing the injured a speedy recovery.
