A prominent preacher, Pastor Emmanuel Ezeasor, has said the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) "will do everything possible" to emerge victorious in the 2027 election.

Pastor Ezeasor, in a video shared recently on his known YouTube page, declared that 'the people who are currently in power will win'. The video was sighted by Legit.ng.

Prophecy on 2027 election

According to him, his revelation is 'what God showed him in the vision of the night'.

The Abuja-based pastor said: “Let me share a prophecy for the forthcoming elections, the general election in 2027. I’m sure elections hold around February. I began to see manipulations, and I saw discussions were heard to shift the election from February to somewhere around April. So, we are going to pray to show mercy.

“There is going to be a lot of manipulation in the forthcoming elections, but the perfect will of God will be done.”

Pastor Ezeasor added: “I saw that the people who are currently in power will do everything possible to win and they will actually win. But I saw that there was an interruption in their rulership because they did what they did against the will of God.”

Pray for Nigeria

Furthermore, Pastor Ezeasor asked people to "pray for Nigeria" because the country "needs the most amount of prayers in this season that we are going into".

He said: "It is a dark season. And it is also the season where The Lord is going to take preeminence and upper hands."

The cleric said the "saviour" that God is about to send to salvage the situation in Nigeria's politics, "will come from within us", and would come from a place the citizens least expect.

Legit.ng reports that general elections will be held in Nigeria in 2027 to elect the president and vice president, members of the senate and house of representatives, state governors, and members of the house of assembly. Incumbent President Bola Tinubu is expected to run for a second term under the governing APC.
