As the nation of Nigeria is mourning the tragic helicopter crash that
ended the lives of Kaduna State Governor Patrick Yakowa and former
National Security Adviser Andrew Owoye Azazi, alongside four others,
Nigerian Prophet T.B. Joshua has revealed how he prophesied the fatal
crash.
On Sunday 16th December 2012, speaking
to a live audience on Emmanuel TV, Prophet T.B. Joshua explained how God
showed him the incident, stating that he conveyed the message to the
nation in a series of prophetic revelations that started in January
2011. The prophetic message has since been uploaded to Joshua’s official
YouTube channel and posted on his Facebook account to over 500,000
fans. Watch the video here
“I see the blood of personalities flowing,” Joshua said on Sunday 2nd January 2011. “This
is a government personality. They should not enter the same plane and
say they are flying from one state to another for any reason in this
country. There is danger. This is a plane crash.”
On July 15th 20112, he added further insight to the revelation, saying, “Those
people who matter in society, they should not go inside the plane,
together in one plane because I see satan wants to destroy these people
who matter in society…” Joshua specified that six individuals would be involved. “They
begin to mention one, two, three, four, five, six people who matter in
society, high profile. The enemy is looking for a time when they will
enter a plane together and be on the air.”
On September 23rd 2012, Joshua sent
one of his ‘Wise Men’ to deliver a message, stating that he had seen
the flag of Nigeria being lowered, calling on Nigerians to join in
prayer to avert the tragedy that would result in this. Then, on October
27th 2012, Joshua himself specified further about the
incident that would cause the lowering of Nigeria’s flag, stating that
he saw a governor flying with his aide.
He said, “Everyone should
come together on their knees and pray for the nation. Where will these
people go, you, Governor, and you put yourself inside a plane and go
together with your aide? Where are they going? They should not put
themselves inside the same plane, aircraft and go. I’m seeing this thing
is very close.”
After the tragic helicopter crash on Saturday 15th December
that saw the death of 6 Nigerians, many online observers of Joshua’s
ministry stated that they remembered his prediction when it was
initially spoken on Emmanuel TV, lamenting that the government officials
had not taken it seriously.
After playing back the clips
of the prophetic revelations, Joshua spoke to the congregation, stating
that he even went to the extent of reaching out to Nigerian President
Goodluck Jonathan to warn him of the impending disaster. He stated that
the nation should have entered a period of national fasting for the
tragedy to be averted but that people were not taking the prophetic
messages seriously.

He then explained how the
prophetic gift of God in his life was a tool that was supposed to be
utilised and valued rather than neglected. He reminded congregants how
this prophetic gift started from the onset of his ministry, specifying
an occasion where he personally met the late Chief MKO Abiola during his
election campaign and bluntly told him that he did not see him on the
throne, despite his popularity and overwhelming support at that
period.Joshua said as he was leaving, Abiola sent a large sum of money
to him which he refused to take, maintaining that his gift was from God
who was more than able to supply his needs.
Joshua subsequently
petitioned those in power to publicly call on all those who claimed to
have prophetic powers to submit their revelations for the upcoming year
to those in authority, as a test of legitimacy. Joshua called on US
President Barack Obama to spearhead this arrangement, stating that as
government leaders had advisors in every field of life, they also needed
spiritual advisors to tell them what the future holds, something
impossible to achieve with mere ‘brain power’.
It
was also revealed in the service that the tragic massacre of school
children in Connecticut, USA was also seen by Joshua. After the
movie-theatre shooting in Colorado, he stated on Sunday 6th August that
the wave of gun-related massacres would continue to increase, stressing
that America needed to pray for their ‘homeland security’.
This
is not the first high-profile death Joshua has spoken of. He caused an
internet storm when his prediction of the demise of Malawi’s Bingu wa
Mutharika came to pass, the prophecy being widely reported in African
press before and after his death.
Aside from prophesying
on national and international levels, Joshua is also known for
prophesying to individuals in his church with alarming accuracy.
Recently highlighted as one of Africa’s 50 most influential people, the
controversial cleric is also known for his philanthropy. Watch the video here
