Reverend Eliyah prophesies Obi's victory

The video was captioned 'Prophecy on the 2027 election in Nigeria.'

His words:

“You see the Nigerian presidential election that is coming, it is going to be very tough.
“What will happen? Peter Obi and the recent government, and the president (Bola Ahmed Tinubu), it is only two of them that will battle the election. But look at people, look at how they are buying the election, giving people money for them to cast the vote. This is what I am seeing. They are bribing people to cast the vote. But I’m seeing war. Among 100 per cent, Peter Obi took the 70.
"And the recent government has the 30 per cent. And they started using money, buying these people in. At the end, there was no result. The result was announced in the court, but people will not agree. It is coming.”
