Jonathan Was Deceived By Oritsejafor With His False Prophecy In 2015 Election - Chris Okotie

A Source very close to the Senior Pastor of the Household of God Church, aid sChris Okotie, took a swipe at the President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, accusing him of sharing false prophecies with former President Jonathan. Okotie who said this while delivering his sermon at his church yesterday October 25th, said Oritsejafor used false prophecies to make Jonathan contest for the election.

"Pastor Oritsejafor deceived Jonathan with a false prophecy from God that he (Jonathan) would win the election convincingly. The man became convinced to contest after Oritsejafor had told him, using CAN’s name, that God had ordained him the winner of the 2015 presidential election. 

While I continued to write and speak that Jonathan was not the man, those of them who knew the truth in what I was saying chose to keep quiet out of fear. I told CAN and PFN that Jonathan was not of God; that whosoever would win would be one that had built a tabernacle in the presence of God. I told CAN and PFN that Jonathan did not belong to the House of David and that since he did not belong to the household, his winning would bring more sorrow to Nigeria.” he said

Why Am Been Crusifile,Am Senate President Against The Wishes Of Some Powerful Individuals - Saraki

A statement release in a recent interview by  Senate president Dr Bukola Saraki were he insisted that  he is being tried at the Code of Conduct Tribunal because he emerged senate president against the wishes of some powerful individuals. 

He said this while addressing members of the senate at their resumed session today September 29th. "Distinguished Senators, I believe you have all followed with keen interest, my trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal. 

I shall avoid discussing the details of that case here for obvious reasons. But let me say it again, that I am ready and will submit myself to the entire judicial process as provided by law.

Meanwhile, I wish to reiterate my remarks before the Tribunal, that I have no iota of doubt that I am on trial today because I am the president of the Nigerian Senate, against the wishes of some powerful individuals outside this Chambers. 

But what is clear to me also, is that the laws of Nigeria, and the rules of the National Assembly give consideration only to the wishes and desires of those of you who are here today as members of the Senate, to elect as you wish, one of your peers as President of the Senate. This, in your wisdom, is what you have done by electing me to be the first among all of you who are my equals. The laws of Nigeria do not give any consideration to any other forces outside the Senate in the election of its President. 

And to yield the ground on this note, is to be complicit in the subversion of democracy and its core principles of separation of powers as enshrined in our constitution. This is why we must once again, commend President Muhammadu Buhari, for refusing to interfere in the election of the National Assembly leadership even in the face of enormous pressures on him to do so. He has proven quite concretely that he is indeed a born-again democrat"he said
