Clergyman, Prophet Ritabbi, the lead pastor of the Christ As of Old Ministry of All Nations, God of Now Now, has drawn significant attention after issuing a prophetic warning to Nigerians about events he claims are set to occur on January 18, 2026. His statements, which have circulated widely on social media, have sparked conversations and debates among believers and non-believers alike regarding the nature and implications of his prophecy.
The prophet made this announcement while addressing members of his ministry in a video that quickly gained traction online. In the video, he urged Nigerians to pray and prepare spiritually to avert potential crises he believes may unfold on the specified date, emphasizing the importance of vigilance and collective prayer for the nation’s welfare.

Pastor makes January prophecy
According to Prophet Ritabbi, God has revealed troubling visions and messages concerning Nigeria’s future, which he says will be fully disclosed during his special crossover service on December 31, 2025. In his sermon, he specifically singled out January 18, 2026, as a day of critical significance, warning Nigerians to pray earnestly against events he perceives as potentially disruptive or harmful to the nation.
The pastor emphasized the gravity of the warning, indicating that divine revelations showed a repeat of past scenarios where deaths and incidents were allegedly covered up, suggesting that a similar situation could recur. However, he claimed that this time, Northerners would play a pivotal role in uncovering the truth and exposing any attempts to conceal events, highlighting regional involvement in revealing critical developments.

He also hinted at high-level figures, including the president, being involved or affected, suggesting uncertainty and lack of transparency in leadership during these events.

The way the other one died them cover am naso them wan cover this one, Northerns exposed everything…the president, nowhere to be found. After they’d say he traveled, then later they’d say ‘eya’.
