A Nigerian prophet, Efe Japhet, has ignited widespread discussions online after making a shocking prophecy regarding Nigeria’s political future ahead of the 2027 general election. According to the cleric, God revealed to him details about the country’s next transformational leader, a revelation that has captured the attention of social media users and political enthusiasts across the nation.
In a video shared by @ChucksEriicE on X (formerly Twitter), Prophet Efe Japhet claimed that the young man destined to lead Nigeria will be a complete outsider in politics. He emphasized that this individual will be no older than 37 years and will have never held any political office or built a career in politics, making his rise both unexpected and unprecedented in the country’s political history.
The cleric elaborated on the prophecy, stating that the young man’s ascent to power would be driven not by ambition or aggressive political campaigning but by the genuine support and admiration of ordinary Nigerians. Prophet Efe Japhet described the future leader as someone who will be embraced by the masses, who will insist on his leadership due to his integrity and fresh approach to governance:
“This man is not known for politics. He will not be more than 37 years old. He will come out and he will become the president of Nigeria. He will not fight for the position. The masses will hold him and say, we want you here.”
According to the prophecy, the young leader’s emergence will significantly disrupt Nigeria’s current political system, challenging entrenched politicians and altering the nation’s governance structures. Prophet Efe Japhet predicted that this leader will effectively “retire” established political figures, recover national assets held abroad, and encourage Nigerians in the diaspora to return home to contribute to national development:
“This man will retire all the political people in Nigeria. He will collect all our money that is outside. He will force our people abroad to come back to Nigeria.”
The cleric also suggested that under the leadership of this young president, Nigeria may experience substantial structural transformations. He indicated the possibility of the country being reorganized into three or four groups functioning under a central federal umbrella, signaling a major shift in governance and national administration.
Prophet Efe Japhet insisted that no political force or influence would be sufficient to prevent this young man from ascending to power when the appointed time arrives, portraying the prophecy as divinely ordained and inevitable.
The prophecy has sparked mixed reactions across social media, with many users expressing curiosity and debate over the legitimacy and implications of the prediction. Some see it as a divine revelation with potential national significance, while others view it as a bold and speculative prediction. Regardless, the prophecy has stirred discussions about Nigeria’s future, leadership succession, and the identity of the mysterious young leader who may reshape the country’s political landscape.
