Soludo’s Re-Election Fulfils Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin’s November Prophecy

By Christopher Aliba

In a development that has reignited conversations around the intersection of faith and politics in Nigeria, Senior Prophet Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin, founder of Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry, appears to have accurately predicted the outcome of the 2025 Anambra State governorship election.

During a prayer session on November 7, 2025, at his church in Warri, Delta State, the cleric declared that the incumbent governor, Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), would retain his seat.

“The sitting Governor, His Excellency Prof. Soludo, he is the one to sit again,” Fufeyin said before an audience of local and international worshippers. “The second person is also trying, but APC is very stubborn,” he added, urging the congregation to note the date of the declaration.

Days later, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) confirmed Soludo’s re-election, announcing 422,664 votes for the APGA candidate and 99,445 votes for his closest rival from the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The outcome has stirred debate across social and religious circles. Supporters hailed it as evidence of divine revelation, while critics argued it reflected informed political analysis or coincidence.

Prophet Fufeyin, known for his energetic preaching and past predictions on national issues, has a history of political prophecies that often attract significant public interest. He cited 2 Chronicles 20:20 “Believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper” as biblical backing for their faith in his declarations.

Analysts, however, point to the delicate intersection of faith and politics in Nigeria, noting that religious figures increasingly influence public perception and political narratives. This latest episode, they say, underscores the enduring impact of spiritual authority on the nation’s democratic experience.

As Governor Soludo embarks on another term, Prophet Fufeyin’s prediction adds to the continuing discourse on how religion, belief, and politics intertwine in shaping Nigeria’s electoral story.

Fufeyin’s Notable Political Prophecies
Over the years, Prophet Fufeyin’s ministry has been associated with several prophecies relating to national politics. Below are some of the most reported:

Ahead of the 2023 polls, the prophet warned of election-related violence, controversies, and post-election court battles.

Fufeyin’s prophecies are regularly shared through his ministry’s media channels, including YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram and often reported by national outlets such as Vanguard and The Guardian.

While his supporters regard his words as manifestations of divine insight, critics see them as observations shaped by Nigeria’s dynamic political realities. Still, Prophet Fufeyin remains one of the country’s most prominent religious voices at the intersection of spirituality and governance, a position that continues to fuel both reverence and scrutiny in equal measure.
