- Speaks About Fayose, Tinubu, Akeredolu, Osun APC, Seyi Makinde, Others
The last time we had an interview session with this man of God, Prophet Joseph Kehinde Oladipupo was some eight years ago. Out of the blues, he just called our corporate headquarters in Ibadan from his Akure base that he had some serious visions he wanted to release to us. He gave hints and we got interested. We then agreed to either visit him in Akure or he should visit us. He graciously agreed to come to us the next time he had a programme in Ibadan. And he fulfilled his promise last week and he made his points. He was hosted by our team led by OLANREWAJU AGIRI, LANRE OLABISI, WOLE ADEJUMO KUNLE GAZALI, OMOTOYOSI JESULEYE AND MARIAM AZEEZ. Excepts:
Let our esteem readers meet you?
My name is Prophet Joseph Kehinde Oladipupo and I am popularly known as Prophet Ogunse, I am the general overseer of Faith and Victory Church. It is based in Akure, Ondo State.
How did you come about the name “OGUNSE” and also the name of your ministry?
When people come to me and I pray for them, my usual concluding statement is always ‘ni oruko Jesu ogun aye yin ti se’ (in the mighty name of Jesus, the battles in your life has been won), so, people know me by that name, Ogunse, and they have been addressing me by that name. There is also a monthly programme we called ‘Ogunse Vigil’, which is one of the powerful hands of our ministry, so, we can also say that the name Ogunse has generated a lot among the people.
Every Christian has a turning point; let us know your turning point and how you came about it?
I was a practicing Engineer by profession before I became a man of God, I was born in 1965and bred in Lagos, I went into the line of Engineering after my school programmes. In 1986, MJM Engineering Company in Ibadan employed me as an Engineer. I have always been a Christian since my youth’s days, so, along the line I heard the voice of God. However, I battled within myself for a long time before I finally surrendered to become a full time prophet and Pastor.
What challenges did you face when you started your Ministry?
It is not my Ministry. It is God’s Ministry. Well, after I answered the call of God in 1988, this itself was a very big challenge for me, I faced challenges of how to survive particularly when there was no other job for me to do. It was a real battle when I left my job; it was also a real battle for me to be called by God, to be a full time man of God. However, by His grace, He that called us made us to succeed, in which we are giving glory to only Him today.
Being a Prophet of God, has God shown you anything about Nigeria especially the Presidency?
I have been making undiluted prophecies because; I am a Prophet of the nation, world and the people. I will just mention one or two of my prophecies that have been published by different publications in Lagos. I made a prophecy about Oyinlola, former governor and the present governor, Aregbesola when they were in court over gubernatorial election then, so, in my prophecy I said Rauf Aregbesola would triumph over Olagunsoye Oyinlola, and I was the only person that made that Prophecy then. As you too can see, Aregbesola won. I also made a prophecy about Mimiko, when he was in a serious supremacy battle with Segun Agagu, I made it known that Mimiko would win the battle in court, and by God’s Grace it came to pass. And also, God spoke with me in the case involving Comrade Adams Oshiomole when he also had an issue. I saw Obaseki’s victory and it was publicized on September 1st in a daily newspaper, The Sun that Obaseki was going to win whatever might be the condition: today, he is the Governor of Edo State by His grace. I prophesied the removal of the Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Alli Olanusi, two or three daily newspapers published it and Alli Olanusi was removed.
Let me tell you here that God has made 80% of my prophesies to come to pass and the remaining 20% I prayed about and were changed by prayers. I also made the prediction about the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump in which More Magazine can confirm – two years before the election, I said he was going to win and by His grace he won, it was a prophecy from a prophet which God has chosen. Also, I made a prophecy about the Nigerian Presidency which was published by Daily Newspaper in 2014/2015 that Buhari was ordained to rule this nation and that he would win and he won. Because I saw it clearly that Muhammadu Buhari would win the presidential election even before the primaries of APC and by His grace it came to pass. President Buhari could have died but God said we should gather people to be praying for him and we have been doing this. I am saying this confidently not partially, our prayers sustained Mr. President, and I am hereby releasing another prophecy that Buhari will complete his term as president of this Nation whatever maybe the aim of anybody. Also, I am saying this confidently that Buhari will not run for a second term in office.
Look, I am so confident about this. I will repeat it, whether Buhari likes it or not, whether he plans it or not, when the time comes, he will decide not to run for a second term. Though some of his admirers may not like this. However, but he will definitely complete his term as the president of this Country. The plan of the devil that he will die in office has been obliterated by our prayers.
Let us go back to your base in Ondo State, what do you see concerning the political situation there?
Well, the present Governor of Ondo State, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu and his opponent Olusegun Abraham, I can say here that the chances are 60 – 40 in the case they have in court, only prayers can change this. If both pray, they both have the chance to win but Akeredolu has a brighter chance to win over Abraham.
What can you say about the present situation in Ibadan in which there is a disagreement between the government and the paramount ruler of Ibadan?
I am a prophet of God that sees tomorrow by the grace of the Lord, I will like to comment on the action of the Governor of Oyo State Senator Abiola Ajimobi. The step he took by appointing many kings was ordained by God. What I am saying is that he was supported by God. In the time of Governor David Jemibewon, Ibadan did not have a king which wore a crown but God touched the heart of Jemibewon to choose and crown a King in Ibadan, nobody was upset with that and the development was accepted then.
Now that it is the turn of Ajimobi the present governor to choose many kings I think people should not be upset with that because it was God that touched his heart. Now, to the prophesy on Oyo State especially Ibadan, firstly, I will say here that the case raised by the Olubadan, Oba Saliu Adetunji against the governor, will fail. Secondly, Olubadan should be very careful because he may be removed from the palace before the end of the tenure of Ajimobi in Oyo State.
Ha, Sir, how will that happen?
In every step, everybody should be praying not to misbehave, what is happening in Ibadanland now is a thing they could have accepted as God’s will, the Olubadan fighting with the governor is like he is fighting with God’s decision, So, as a man of God I saw that Olubadan was removed from the throne, if there is no prayer against it. I repeat again Olubadan may be removed, because some cases will be raised against the Olubadan which I don’t know how it’s going to happen, I can’t narrate that because it is not every vision that can be narrated clearly, some cases will be raised somehow against the monarch in which he may not be able to win. The case against the government is apart.
I also have more to say about Oyo State now that Ajimobi is about finish his second term and there is no grace for the third term, I can’t declare the next Governor of Oyo State for now. However, in another vision, I want to say confidently and also as a prophet of God that former Governor Rashidi Ladoja will not rule again in Ibadanland whether as a governor or a king, it is not in the vision of God for Ladoja to rule Ibadan as a governor or monarch anymore. I am saying this confidently as a prophet of God. About Seyi Makinde, what I saw about him is that he could have been the next Governor after Ajimobi but he is in the wrong party, and this decision to team up with a wrong party will make him not to be the next governor of Oyo State.
Can we get a clearer picture of this vision on Seyi Makinde being in the wrong party?
What I am saying is that Seyi Makinde is not in the right party that can allow him to rule Oyo State, so, only the right party can make him to rule but for now he is in the wrong party.
Sir, do you see any after effect of Olubadan being removed?
I can’t say much about the after effect for now, the prediction will continue on that, so I can’t talk more on what I have not seen yet, but what I saw is that if the Olubadan is not careful he will be removed from the palace.
Has God shown you who will occupy the presidential seat after Buhari in Nigeria?
I will say this, that a new party will spring up and some PDP and APC members will join the new party and I am saying as a prophet that they will fail. Another Candidate of APC will come out from Kano as a presidential candidate and the fellow will be Ibrahim Shekarau, one of the former governors of Kano State, but I have not seen whether he will be the next president of Nigeria, but I am saying this confidently that Buhari will not run for a second term, but for now I can not declare Nigeria’s next president.
What do you think will happen to Atiku Abubakar?
Atiku Abubakar will be a candidate from another party to contest the presidential election, but certainly not from APC, I did not see Atiku as the next president of this nation, that is, if he contests he cannot win. I am saying this confidently that Atiku Abubakar is not the next President after the tenure of Buhari.
The election of Osun state is next year, what can you say about the politics there?
I am saying this that the PDP crisis that is not yet over – there will still be differences within the party from state to state and it will affect all Yoruba states. Also APC crisis will become more serious in Osun state, there will be disorder within them, it will be divided into three or four different groups and they will all fight against one another. Osun state needs prayer, because when Senator Ademola Adeleke was about to be voted, I saw a vision that he was going to win but people did not show interest in it and he won the election. During the next election, which is the governorship, APC should be very careful not to sell the seat to the opposition party, but for now they have to be prayerful.
In Ekiti State, there will be differences between PDP and PDP, so, the party will not produce the next governor to rule the state. APC will produce the next governor in Ekiti state. But if Segun Oni prays very well he may be the next governor of the state.
Permit me to go back to Oyo state – and I will say this, the people there should prepare themselves for the next governor because there may be a big surprise, there will also be some differences in the party of APC in the state but they should prepare themselves not to fail.
What can you say about Senator Bola Tinubu?
I want to say this that all the leaders in APC should be very careful not to engage in in-fighting, these differences will trigger a war in the party and it may not favor the party.
People are worried that there might be another world war between America and North Korea, what can you say about this?
There was a prediction I made on December 2015 about Donald Trump, that he would be the next president in America and his tenure would be for war. So, when we are talking about North Korea and America it is not a new thing, because it is what a prophet has predicted before his arrival. They are going to fight a war and the war will affect all countries in the world including Nigeria and Africa in general. Trump’s time will be for war.
What advice do you have for our Leaders and the Nigerian people in general?
In one of my prophesies that I released some three or four years ago when Boko Haram people were working to destroy Nigeria, then I said they should gather men of God and pray. If our rulers had believed in the prayers of the men of God, Boko Haram could have been quenched by now. I am saying that it is the Boko Haram people that turned to Fulani herdsmen, and before the arrival of Fulani herdsmen I had made a prediction that Fulani Herdsmen would be killing people and that they would spread throughout the entire nation, only prayers can stop the killings. And it was the prayers of the men of God that made the killings to reduce. If men of God can gather themselves together and talk to God on behalf of this nation, this nation will be settled.
In Nigeria who really is a man of God?
Before President Buhari became the president, I predicted that Buhari would win the election and that Goodluck Jonathan should surrender that he will not win the election – the reason why I am saying this is that multiple men of God supported Goodluck. They should have asked God, can we support him or not? In every nation there are always fake men of God and also there are always genuine men of God. Nigeria is a country of God and there are men of God in this country. No matter what there are still true prophets of God that hold the feet of God in Nigeria.
