Prophet Elijah Bamidele of the Christ House of Prayer and Deliverance Ministry, Lagos, has claimed that Peter Obi cannot emerge victorious in the 2027 presidential election in Nigeria.

In a recent video posted on his official Facebook page, seen by Legit.ng, the Edo-born preacher asked Obi, the Labour Party (LP) candidate in the 2023 election, to wait till 2031.

Prophet Bamidele said: “I do not hate Peter Obi. But Peter Obi cannot rule Nigeria now. 2027, write it down. I am a prophet, take it or you leave it. Bring out any prophecy that I have given that have not come to pass in Nigeria. I am a prophet. Peter Obi, 2027, no way for you. If he will rule Nigeria, it will be after 2027, no be now (sic).

“Remember I gave a prophecy that I saw Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi coming out of the different parties, not the All Progressives Congress (APC), not the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), not Labour Party, you called me a fake prophet. Three months after, didn’t ADC coalition emerge? Do you think I speak what my eyes did not see?

“2027, Peter Obi, no president for you. After 2027, he can come.”

Furthermore, Prophet Bamidele stated that President Tinubu will not be defeated in the 2027 election.

He said: “Whether you like it or not, Bola Tinubu is the president of Nigeria. If it pleases God for him to do eight years, there is nothing you can do about it.”
