“God will touch the leadership of Nigeria so that this calamity that is taking place in the east will end. By this time next month or anytime in the month of May, he will be released and there will be peace in eastern Nigeria and Anambra State.
“I’m not a politician but a prophet and when a prophet speaks, things happen. It is time that injustice cease to exist in Nigeria. Injustice, killings and calamities will cease in southeast and Nigeria.
“There are people that are pursuing what they are pursuing in order to gain attraction. As a prophet, I don’t need anybody to bribe me or influence me but I believe that my people will be set free and there won’t be war or destruction in this land.”
He added, “We need humility because nobody is safe when the poor are not safe. The rich in our midst must do everything to ensure the safety of the poor. Otherwise they won’t be safe to enjoy their riches. So both the rich a poor should cry unto God.”
