Prophet Bisi Olujobi Warns of Impending Revolution in Nigeria Due to Economic Hardship
Prophet Bisi Olujobi, the General Overseer of Wisdom Church of Christ International, has issued a stark warning to Nigerian government officials, predicting a revolution if current economic hardships persist.
In a statement on Tuesday, Olujobi urged President Bola Tinubu’s administration to reconsider harsh economic policies and address widespread hunger to prevent his prophecy from coming true.
He warned that the poor might be driven to extreme measures, such as stoning legislators, governors, and other public servants.
“I foresee a mother of all revolutions that will unseat this government and several governors if the right things are not done immediately,” Olujobi stated.
He emphasized that Nigerians are not asking for much and that their patience should not be mistaken for foolishness. “The fury coming is going to be like a tsunami with consequences,” he added.
Olujobi urged the President to take immediate action, warning that those advising him to ignore the public’s suffering are being deceptive.
He predicted that many government officials could face public outrage, including being stoned, before the end of the year if the suffering continues.
