2013: Nigeria ’ll lose 2 more govs, except ... •Olabayo drops bombshell

DESPITE the series of tragedies witnessed in the country in the outgone year, particularly among the political class, there may not be respite yet for state governors and top political office holders.
Going by the predictions of the founder of the Evangelical Church of YAWEH, Lagos, Primate Theophilus Olabayo, the much anticipated general elections of 2015 may also not hold.
Olabayo, who spoke with Sunday Tribune in an exclusive interview, had many heart-rending predictions for people of the country.
According to Olabayo, two governors would not see the end of 2013, declaring that; “this year, we have to pray so that we may not lose two governors because what happened last year was a shadow of what is going to happen this year.”
He added that the president and governors should forget about re-election in the next general election.
Answering a question on the anticipated commencement of preparations for the 2015 elections this year, Olabayo said; “please, let us forget about the 2015 elections for now.
Are the people who are talking about that all-important year sure they would live up to that time? What I foresee about 2015 is trouble and anarchy in the land and the political gladiators would undo themselves.
They would use ill-gotten money to destroy themselves. They would also resort to fetish things and occultism to kill themselves.
“But we should all pray in this country so that we may not lose two state governors. Generally, I saw that among the politicians, there is going to be a lot of killings; of people who are in higher positions.”
To forestall the impending disaster, Primate Olabayo said the answer was for all Nigerians to be united in prayer.
The cleric, who, however, said the country was not going to break, declared specifically that Edo and Ondo states in the Southern part of the country would “experience political earthquake” and that “anything” could happen in those states.
 Olabayo said further that Nigerians should expect more flood and increase in activities of the Boko Haram sect and general terrorism in the New Year, adding, however, that in the year, a new leader that would restore order and good governance would emerge.
He said the present crop of politicians had incurred the wrath of God, maintaining that 2013 would be a year of vengeance against some members of the class.
Olabayo also spoke about the various political change-of-gears that would occur in the South-West states of the nation, giving specific warnings to political leaders like former Governor Adebayo Alao-Akala of Oyo State, former Governor Gbenga Daniel of Ogun State and their counterpart in Ekiti, Mr Ayodele Fayose.
