A prominent Nigerian cleric has made a series of striking predictions concerning the nation's political and economic future, forecasting that President Bola Tinubu will initiate a change of the country's name before the conclusion of his tenure.
Major Political Forecasts for Tinubu's Administration
Pastor Toye Ebijomore, the founder and General Overseer of God’s Anointed and Blessed Church International in Akure, delivered these prophecies during his 2026 address on Friday, January 2, 2026. According to reports from Vanguard, the cleric stated that President Tinubu would successfully navigate and overcome political alliances formed against him, maintaining firm control of power.
Ebijomore projected intense political manoeuvring ahead of the 2027 general elections, with various coalitions emerging to challenge for federal power. However, he predicted these opposition groups would be plagued by internal crises and misfortunes, weakening their structure and ultimately leading to fragmentation. The cleric asserted that the ruling party would retain power in the forthcoming election, but indicated that a stronger political force would eventually emerge to displace it in the future.
Economic Abundance and Security Warnings
On economic matters, the Akure-based pastor offered a message of hope, predicting a significant turnaround in food availability. He forecast that from the second half of 2026, Nigeria would experience a surplus of food. He urged the government to leverage this expected abundance by implementing policies to make food and healthcare more affordable for citizens.
Alongside this forecast of plenty, Ebijomore issued a serious caution regarding security. He warned that insecurity would evolve beyond kidnapping to include heightened risks of robbery, sponsored violence, arson, and bombings in public spaces. The cleric advised authorities to be vigilant against individuals financing such attacks and targeting respected figures, including religious leaders.
Divine Instructions and National Outlook
The prophet delivered what he described as a divine instruction to President Tinubu, urging him to convene a national prayer session focused on restoring Nigeria's glory. Ebijomore emphasized that obedience to this guidance would be crucial for the nation's future direction and stability.
He also predicted significant progress for Ondo State, describing it as a rising destination poised to attract increased attention and development. On a national scale, he foresaw testimonies of improved health and longevity among citizens, stating that the year would bring healing and deliverance to those who remain steadfast in faith.
Ebijomore concluded his prophecy by calling on both leaders and citizens to remain watchful, prayerful, and committed to the path of national renewal amidst the coming challenges and opportunities.
