Prophecy Fulfilled: Wave of PDP Defections to APC Echoes 2020 Prediction by Prophet Jeremiah
Abuja, Nigeria – May 8, 2025
A wave of high-profile defections from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) currently reshaping Nigeria’s political landscape has drawn fresh attention to a prophecy made nearly five years ago.
On August 28, 2020, renowned cleric Prophet Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin, founder of Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry, publicly prophesied a major shift in Nigeria’s political dynamics. In his televised message, the prophet foretold that a significant number of PDP members would abandon the party to join the APC — a prediction that, at the time, stirred widespread debate and skepticism.
Fast forward to 2025, and Nigeria is witnessing what analysts describe as an “unprecedented realignment” within its political sphere. In recent months, several senior PDP figures—including former governors, lawmakers, and influential party stalwarts—have officially joined the APC, citing ideological disagreements, internal party crises, and strategic political positioning ahead of the next general elections.
Political observers now point to Prophet Jeremiah’s 2020 prophecy as remarkably prescient. “This is not the first time religious leaders in Nigeria have offered political prophecies, but the accuracy of this particular prediction is striking,” said Dr. Hadiza Lawal, a political analyst at the Centre for Democratic Research.
The defections have also sparked renewed debate about the role of prophecy in Nigerian politics, a country where religion and governance often intertwine. While some view the current events as divinely orchestrated, others urge caution in attributing political developments solely to prophetic insight.
Neither the PDP nor the APC has officially responded to the resurfacing prophecy, but within political and religious circles, it has become a topic of growing interest.
As the political season intensifies, many are watching to see whether further elements of Prophet Jeremiah’s 2020 vision will come to pass.
