Prophet Theophilus Olabayo is the Founder and Primate, Evangelical Church of Yahweh Worldwide He predicted that the late Chief Moshood K.O. Abiola would win the June 12, 1993 presidential elected but become president. He also predicted that the late maximum military head of state, Gen. Sani Abacha would die in office among other major predictions that came to pass. In this interview with ADELOWO ADEBUMITI, he warned INEC not to declare the 2019 presidential election inconclusive. He also asked Nigerians to intercede for the nation in order to avoid war.

What is God telling you about the state of the nation?

We are in a very serious situation that requires fasting and prayers. And To avert looming crisis, Nigerians should pray and fast between November 1 and 3, 2018 and use the occasion to seek God’s face.

With prayers all things are possible. We have to pray for peace, unity and progress of our nation as 2019 elections approach.

In 1993, I was the first prophet to reveal that the late MKO Abiola would win the election but that he would not be allowed to take over and that in the process there would be problems, which will lead to his death.

Also during President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua/Goodluck Jonathan’s time, I told Nigerians that God revealed to me that Yar’Adua would die from his sickness and that Jonathan would become President in spite of stiff opposition that would come from certain quarters.

Even during recent elections in Ekiti, and Osun, I told All Progressives Congress (APC) that if the party presented Dr. Kayode Fayemi that APC would win the election and it came to pass that when they fielded Fayemi the party won the polls.

I also remember telling the nation that God revealed to me that Governor Willie Obiano would win the Anambra State election even before the governorship election held.

It also came to pass. Whenever God speaks through His own prophets it must surely come to pass.

However, it is quite unfortunate the way some people are going about prophesy these days.

Look at how some prophets have been talking about Dr. Olubukola Saraki, that he will be President, I just shake my head. What Nigerians don’t know is that some of these politicians, especially when they are looking for certain positions.

They would look for a prophet, and give money to such prophet, and the prophet will give positive prophecies about the man, saying what God has not send him to say about the man. These prophets will be deceiving Nigerians. They will be talking about the man, who gave them money, as if it is God that asked them to talk about him.

Saraki’s father was my friend. But Saraki, the current Senate President, God did not send me to him. I knew he would not be president contrary to what some prophets said about him. That he is the best material for the presidency.

Before the PDP’s convention where Atiku Abubakar emerged as the PDP Presidential candidate, God revealed to me that Saraki and others are going nowhere, and that it is Atiku that would clinch the ticket, and I told some members of my congregation.

Eventually, Atiku Abubakar emerged PDP flagbearer. But God has not told me anything about Saraki becoming president for now. I serve a living God who never fails.

We need to pray against series of crises that may plunge this nation into bigger problems. Nigerians should get this message now. Henceforth, it is no longer going to be business as usual in the nation’s political landscape.

For the coming 2019 general elections, it will be men fighting men, and not boys fighting men because Buhari, and APC would want to use power of incumbency to influence the elections, but Atiku will not agree.

They are going to fight each other, and the elections will be inconclusive.

This is why we need to pray for Nigeria. If the election is inconclusive there may be a revolution, and young men will take over the affairs of this country. This is what is going to happen.

Again, we need to tell our leaders that they should stop hate speeches.

God further revealed to me that some of our corrupt leaders will end up in the prison. All their ill-gotten wealth will be taken away from them if this revolution comes. And a man of destiny will take over the affairs of this nation.

The new regime that will take over will rule between 3-5 years, and after this, there will be restructuring.

Under the new regime, we will have vice presidents in the nation’s six geo-political zones. Then, this will lead to the establishment of a loose federation.

This nation needs to pray very well if we are to avert war. Our leaders and politicians should not lead us to war.

People will support Atiku, but we have to tell our leaders that they must stop hate speeches so that the presidential election can be peaceful. Let the nation’s politicians know that Nigeria is not for sale.

It is, however, unfortunate that some men of God have sold out. But God will surely deliver this country.

Atiku and Buhari should avoid crises. They should also warn their followers to stop hate speeches. We need this country. It is ours, and we must pray for her peace.

The possibility of a seven-year old war, how can it be averted?

What can stop this war is for us to stop hate speeches, so that this election will not lead us to crisis that will lead to war.

Nigerians should fast and pray between November 1 and 3, 2018 for peace to reign during the 2019 polls. They should ask for God’s mercy concerning 2019 elections.

Apart from hate speeches, what again can lead to crisis in 2019?

Crisis will come up if the margin of defeat between the winner and loser is not wide in the presidential election.

If the margin is not wide, the loser will not accept defeat, and there is going to be problem.

What can the nation do to avoid this?

The only solution is prayers, and they should also stop hate speeches. Then whoever loses the election should accept defeat.

For the 2019 elections, the government of the day will attempt to use power of the incumbency, but they are not going to find it easy.

There will be resistance.

What about the states, what is likely going to happen?
There will be crises in many states. Like in Imo State, they should warn the governor not to cause commotion in that state.

Even in Oyo State, there will be problem. In Lagos State, we need prayers for the states because enemies will rise against APC.

Again, some of the nation’s political leaders will die between now and 2019. God is also going to visit some of these political godfathers holding the nation to ransom.

Their cups are already full. Let them know that their time is up. God is taking over from them.

What do they need all the billions they are amassing for? Is it not madness? What do they want to do with billions of dollars and naira, they are amassing? If they don’t repent and change, God is going to deal with them. All these political assassinations, kidnappings and other vices must stop.

You said earlier that someone will emerge to take over the country if violence breaks out between the contestants, is this person the nation’s messiah being expected?

If there is violence and crisis after the elections, and there is no solution, God will raise up a leader that will come to clear all of them away and restore sanity. This is why these politicians need to be very careful so that the youths will not rise against them, if they don’t stop all the nonsense.

In view of these spiritual revelations, what would be your advice to all these key political leaders, President Muhammadu Buhari, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, and others ahead of 2019?

They should warn their supporters against hate speeches. They should love Nigeria more than themselves.

They should not play politics of do-or die. They should also not be greedy. They should love one another.

What is your advice to whoever emerges winner and loser of the 2019 presidential polls?
Any of them that loses should accept defeat. As I said earlier, it should not be a do-or-die affair. They should put Nigeria first.

What about those who engage in false prophesies?
It is not for me to condemn or judge anybody. Politicians are now desperate, and they are using money to buy prophets so they can prophesy good concerning them.

It is only God that gives people positions and power. If God has not ordained it to be, thousands of prophets, and their fake prophecies can’t give power, and positions to any individual.

The press also has a role to play in checkmating these fake prophets. The press promotes these fake prophets. It is the press that builds them up.

There are so many people in Nigeria today that are not prophets but they call themselves prophets. These men are not prophets but businessmen.

Anybody who says God has spoken or thus says the Lord when God has not spoken surely judgment of God will come down on such men.

It is not too good for prophets to be too close to those in power, they deserve respect.

Look at what is happening between Rev.Fr Mbaka now, and the present administration, he used to be close to APC but things have fallen apart between them.

When President Buhari came into office in 2015, you said he was not Nigeria’s messiah, looking back now, has your opinion about him changed?

Buhari is not Nigeria’s messiah. It is not my opinion, it is God that revealed to me that Buhari is not Nigeria’s messiah and my prophecy about him has not changed.

Buhari is not Nigeria’s messiah. What has he done, especially on corruption?

Corruption has got worse under Buhari than during Jonathan’s era. Look at the killings all over the country. It is getting worse. We still have a long way to go.

Buhari is an old man. I think he is not the messiah; his time is up because the seat is vacant, and nobody is there.

It is good that he is seeking reelection but the fact is that his time is up. He came in to stabilise, but his time is up.
