What T.B. Joshua Said About The Buhari Administration
18 May 2016 at 06:32hrs | Views
There is currently a video circulating on the internet of Pastor T.B. Joshua commenting on the Buhari administration. Giving prophetic insight into the year 2016, the cleric addressed the world and Africa in general, before honing in on Nigeria. In the video which has been viewed on YouTube over 500,000 times, T.B. Joshua is seen saying:
"President Buhari will do everything to reject devaluation of the naira – which is a good idea from a good leader. But there will be overwhelming pressure from above him which he will not be able to resist. Everyone has a portion to be blamed. Let us share the blame and move the country forward.
My president, President Buhari has good intentions. A king's intention cannot be carried out properly without the support of his subjects. He needs your support to lead us out of the valley. Nigeria, we are in a valley. It is not our president that put us in the valley but generations." He concluded by exhorting, "Nigerians, support and pray for your leader. The future of this country is crying for help."
After a long hard fight to resist devaluation, on Friday, Buhari indeed finally succumbed to the pressure from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Sources revealed that the naira would be pegged at N290 to one dollar.
"The truth is that Nigeria cannot operate without sourcing credit from the IMF. And the IMF was adamant that we must devalue before they can discuss extending credit to us," an economic adviser to Buhari reported to the media.
For many months, Buhari had stood his ground on the issue and continues to insist that he is not yet convinced about the benefits of further devaluation of the naira.
Buhari and his economic team were said to have taken the decision to accept the IMF's terms so that the government can access funds in order to bridge a critical shortfall in revenue occasioned by a drastic decline in oil revenues.
The IMF had long indicated its readiness to support Nigeria's economy with credit liquidity but insisted on Nigeria devaluing its currency. But Buhari disagreed, insisting on several occasions that he would never devalue the naira.
The drastic fall of the naira has been the source of siginificant hardships this year in Nigeria. This has led to the wide-scale fuel shortage and removal of food subsidy, food scarcity and extortionate hikes in food prices.
T.B. Joshua had equally commented on this in his prophecy at the beginning of the year: "There will be large scale scarcity, shortage of food." "As a state, country, continent, we have to go back to the farm to arrest, to alleviate the forthcoming situation."
With the current situation only looking bleaker for Nigeria, one cannot help but be prompted to get on our knees and pray for our nation, our president and our future, which as T.B. Joshua ironically said is, crying for help.
