About three years ago, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of Christ Embassy hinted in a prophecy that former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, would win the 2023 presidential election.

Obi contested the election on the platform of Labour Party, going against former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Prior to the election, Oyakhilome addressed his congregation regarding a prophecy he had received about the forthcoming election.

According to him, he was led in the spirit to see the character and spirit behind each of the candidates, all of whom he had good respect for, describing them as good guys who have done a lot for the country.

"I have very positive thoughts for each one of them, but you have to look in the spirit, and in the spirit, the first one, it was a devil, an evil spirit that was wearing his face. Meaning that he doesn't even know what he's doing while he's campaigning and running for president. He's being used; a wicked spirit of darkness. And this spirit was a mocker. Today, while I was praying, the spirit called him a name. I was surprised, because he said 'the Jackal is cut off'. I said 'Jackal?' I thought I knew the meaning of Jackal. I had to go into the dictionary to find the meaning. It means a trickster, a swindler and one that operates on behalf of another for the purpose of deception.

"I said, 'What about the second one?' He said if you let him get into office, you will have no country. In the spirit, I saw the third one, and he was afraid. He was afraid he might win now; he was afraid of losing. He didn't want to lose, but he was also scared of winning."

Oyakhilome then stated that the third one's name is in the Bible, a proclamation that sent his congregation into a wild frenzy.

"The first one, because of what it was, I won't mention the name, nor will I mention the second one. But the third one, his name is in the Bible," he said.

Analysing the video, MyNigeria noticed that among all the major candidates in the 2023 presidential election, only Obi had a name found in the Bible, and the name is Peter, an Apostle of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately for Oyakhilome, Obi came in a distant third while Tinubu ended up as President.
