I Told Jonathan He Would Lose The Presidential Election- T.B Joshua

The founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SOAN); "Prophet T.B Joshua" on Sunday has said he has already told President Goodluck Jonathan, before the date of presidential election (March 28) that he would be losing out. The cleric said he sent his message to the President several weeks before the election.

“I want to use this moment to congratulate Nigerians in our midst here,” Mr. Joshua began in a message to his multi-national congregation, televised live via his Christian Cable Network (Emmanuel TV).

In allude to his prediction a week to the election that the dark cloud he saw covering Nigeria was lifting, he said that a bloody ‘war’ would have ensued if not for the prompt grant of power by President Jonathan.



“Look, Nigeria wanted change; everyone was longing for change. An attempt to stop change leads to war, and bloodbath experiences… If Nigeria knows what we have overcome, then we would rather dance​,​”​ Mr. Joshua said.​

Mr. Joshua praised Mr. Jonathan’s tenure insisting that he had served his nation well despite the immense security challenges.

“I really want to salute President Jonathan. The President has served; he has done his best. It was just the season of crisis – and unfortunately he found himself at the lead in the season of crisis ​,​”​ he said.​

He said he had wanted to personally deliver the message to the president, so Mr president had to send one of his aides to him promptly. After the presidential aide had worshipped at his church during a Sunday service, Mr. Joshua said he met him and relayed the revelation that Mr. Jonathan’s regime had come to an end. “Soft landing – that is the language I sent to the president,” he told his congregation.

Mr. Joshua described President Jonathan as a man who ‘has a heart for God’, revealing that he even spoke with the Nigerian president shortly before his historic concession call to President-elect Mr. Buhari.

“I said to him, ‘Your Excellency – all you need to say is thank You, Jesus, even when it seems there is nothing to be thankful for. He said, ‘Thank you, man of God’. Before I knew it, I saw the news on CNN that he had congratulated his opponent ​,​”​ Mr. Joshua said.​

He prayed that people from the ‘South-South’ region in Nigeria where President Jonathan hails from would understand that ‘their son has become a hero’, adding that his actions prove the region is after a united Nigeria.
