A House of Representatives aspirant in Abeokuta South Federal Constituency of Ogun State, Hon. Ayodeji Adeshina has described the alleged padding of the 2018 budget by the National Assembly as “very unfortunate” and a step backward for the country’s democracy.

Hon. Adeshina who spoke in Abeokuta on Saturday at summit organised by Young Leaders Initiative (YLI) on the topic,  “Youth Involvement in Political Leadership and Governance: Challenges and Prospect”, wondered why there was so much controversy on what he described as a sensitive matter, like the budget, insisting it is high time the country stop playing politics with what is of national interest and benefit.

He said, if truly the country want to develop and make progress, it should find a way of making sure the budget is always passed as at when due.

Adeshina described the whole budget issues as political game geared towards next year’s election.

His words: ” The delay before the passing, signing and all the issues is very unfortunate. We need to start working for the speedy passage of the budget for the interest of the country”.

” We need to reduce politics we play  with things that are sensitive, especially like the budget. It is a political game since the election is coming next. We need to stop the politics to progress”.

Speaking on the theme, Adeshina said what the youths need is political mentoring for Leadership positions.

He noted that the youths still need the experience of the old politicians in order for them to succeed but should avoid following them blindly, urging the youths to prepare themselves for Leadership positions.

” The youths need political leaders mentoring for Leadership positions and role. You must also ensure that all negotiations have your interest. Don’t follow godfathers blindly, leaving out your interest “.

Adeshina stressed that the relationship between the godsons (youths) and their godfathers should be advisory but not dictatorial.

Reacting to President Muhammadu Buhari’s statement that the youth should wait after 2019, Adeshina said it is a political statement and a way to say ” vote for me”.
 

In his own presentation, popular Nigeria Comedian, Gbenga Adeyinka while speaking on “Youth and Politics”, disclosed that with situation of things in the country, nobody under 50 years would become the President in the next eight years.

He noted that with the numerical strength, the youths are too conservative and believe so much in old politicians, insisting that they believed that the statusquo should remain.

The comedian disclosed that the youths are their own enemies when it comes to politics, noting that the youth can make anything to happen, if truly they are determined.

He urged the youths to stop collecting money from politicians but rather ask the politicians question on what  they are doing.

” Stop collecting money from politicians, take ideas to them, ask questions on their activities. Create alternatives for them. For now, Nobody under 50 will be President in the next eight years.

” It is only in Nigeria where President will become President without going for debate likewise Governors too.

He also urged the youths to prepare and develop themselves for Leadership.

All those who spoke at the summit, pleaded with the youths to improve themselves as well as capacity for Leadership positions.

– 2025 Prophecies Manifest: Fire, Floods, Disease, and Global Unrest

 

– Prophecies Fulfilled: Firestorms, Floods, and Deadly Viruses Rock 2025

 

By Miracle Oyewale

 

The Setman, Lead Pastor, and Founder of the Oneness in Christ Ministry, Prophet Kingsley Aitafo, has again seen some of his prophecies for 2025 come to pass. As the Shepherd of CCC Living Grace Tabernacle, his words of divine insight continue to prepare believers for what lies ahead.

 

2025 Prophecies Manifest: Fire, Floods, Disease, and Global Unrest

 

In 2024, Prophet Kingsley released a series of prophetic warnings for 2025, urging individuals, nations, and institutions to prepare for the events to come. Remarkably, over five of his prophecies have already been fulfilled within the first month of this new year.

 

Weather Disasters

The prophet warned of severe weather disasters, and this prediction has already manifested across multiple regions:

Southeast Asia Floods: In late 2024, Typhoon Yagi caused devastating flooding and landslides in Vietnam, Myanmar, Laos, and Thailand. Millions were affected, and access to essential services was disrupted.

Malaysia Floods: December 2024 brought the worst flooding in Malaysia in a decade, triggered by unprecedented monsoon rains. Over 90,000 individuals were displaced, and lives were lost.

Saudi Arabia Floods: In early January 2025, heavy flooding wreaked havoc in Saudi Arabia, resulting in property damage and displacing countless residents.

Fire Disasters

Prophet Kingsley also foretold an increase in fire outbreaks, a prophecy tragically realized in:

 

Los Angeles Wildfires: In January 2025, historic wildfires ravaged Los Angeles, California, devastating neighborhoods like Pacific Palisades and Hollywood Hills, claiming lives, and displacing thousands.

 

Fire in Asaba, Nigeria: A major fire outbreak occurred in Asaba, aligning with the prophecy of global fire disasters threatening lives and properties.

 

Scandals in the Church

Another warning issued by the prophet concerned scandals in churches. This prophecy unfolded when a former pastor at Dunamis Church made shocking claims, alleging that healing miracles were staged. The revelation has caused widespread frustration and confusion, echoing the prophet’s caution to churches worldwide.

Deadly Diseases and Global Conflict

 

Prophet Kingsley’s vision of a deadly disease and rising global conflict has also come to pass:

Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) Surge: A surge in HMPV cases has emerged, particularly affecting children under 14 in China. The virus has spread to several countries, including Malaysia, Kazakhstan, and Italy, sparking global health concerns.

Foot-and-Mouth Disease in Germany: Germany reported its first case of foot-and-mouth disease in nearly 40 years, raising fears of broader outbreaks despite its non-threatening nature to humans.

On the global conflict front:

Terrorism Alerts: Security agencies have heightened alerts in Europe, the U.S., and parts of Asia as terrorism threats escalate in 2025.

Taiwan Strait Tensions: Diplomatic and military tensions between China, Taiwan, and the U.S. have intensified, raising fears of a potential blockade.

War in Ukraine: The ongoing conflict in Ukraine continues to destabilize the region and influence global security.

Aviation Disasters

The prophecy of aviation tragedies has also taken shape:
Indonesian Plane Crash: In early January 2025, a domestic flight in Indonesia crashed shortly after takeoff, leading to significant casualties. Investigations are ongoing, but the incident has left many grieving.

Rising Aviation Risks: Experts warn of increased aviation risks in 2025, citing aging aircraft, weather disruptions, and higher air traffic as contributing factors.

 

Prophet Kingsley Aitafo’s prophecies serve as a call to action and a reminder of the need for faith, preparation, and divine guidance. These events are a testament to his divine gift and a call for individuals and nations to remain vigilant and prayerful.

As we navigate 2025, let us embrace faith, prayer, and readiness for the challenges ahead. Truly, God still speaks, and His warnings remain a beacon for those who choose to listen.
