Prophet Jacob Iteimo Surrey, Prediction on Tinubu
Prophet Jacob Iteimo Surrey


In a recent interview with The Independent, Senior Prophet Jacob Iteimo Surrey, the Shepherd-In-Charge of the Celestial Church of Christ (CCC), Asore Central Parish1, Asore, Ajuwon, Akute, Ogun State, provided insights into his divine revelation concerning the outcome of the highly anticipated 2023 Nigerian presidential elections.


Addressing the question, "Several prophets predicted the outcome of the 2023 presidential elections, albeit rightly or wrongly. Now that the elections are over, could you reveal to us what God showed you concerning that election?" Prophet Surrey replied that, "From the beginning of the campaign, I did not want an old person to become the president of this nation because I believed we needed a change."


However, he mentioned that the Holy Spirit unveiled a different plan which marveled him. He said, "The Holy Spirit revealed to me that Bola Ahmed Tinubu was the favored man to rule this country. There was nothing I could do other than to support him and pray that he won the election." Prophet Surrey affirmed this while underlining the divine guidance that influenced his stance.


The cleric reflected on the role of divine providence, stating, "Man proposes, but God disposes." He emphasized the challenges which the eventual winner of the election faced within his own party, the All Progressive Congress (APC). Despite these challenges, the winner triumphed and secured a significant number of votes from the core northern region, overcoming his formidable opponents, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi.


"God wanted him to bring Nigeria out of the pit," Prophet Surrey stated with conviction. He emphasized the significance of Tinubu's presidency in leading the nation towards a brighter future.
