An Abuja-based man of God, Prophet Joshua Iginla, has received commendations from Zambia for predicting the victory of President Edgar Lungu at the recently concluded polls in the country.
The Nigerian prophet, during a three-day crusade in Zambia in May 2016, maintained that his prediction in January 2016 that Mr Lungu would retain power still stands.
Prophet Iginla had said at the programme that he saw two lions battling each other in the election but the older lion, Lungu, emerged winner of the bout.
With his prophesy coming true, Zambians, Business Post has been informed, now cherish the Nigerian man of God.
It was said that after Prophet Iginla made his prophesy, other popular prophets, especially one from South Africa, countered it, saying the opposition candidate would win the election.
“The economy will improve but not as expected. The election in Zambia will be will be like two lions fighting. The president should pray in terms of the election because I see betrayals from his camp and so called faithful. But in my vision, I see someone trying to pull him from his seat, yet he remain in the seat,” the man of God had predicted.
Sources from Zambia confirmed to us that all he said about the election which took place on Thursday, 11th of August, 2016 came to pass.
It was a tough time for the Zambians as the battle for the seat of the President was one of a kind, one that has never being experienced.
The battle was between the Leader of Patriotic Front, who is also the sitting President, Edgar Lungu and his opponent, representing United Party for National development, Hakainde Hichilema.
The result of the election was released on Monday, 15th of August, 2016, in favour of President Edgar Lungu, confirming Joshua Iginla’s prophecy.
According to reports, Zambia’s incumbent President Edgar Lungu has been declared the winner of a closely fought presidential election, but the result was immediately challenged by his main opponent Hakainde Hichilema. Lungu, leader of the Patriotic Front (PF), won 50.35 percent of Thursday’s vote, against 47.67 percent for Hichilema, of the United Party for National Development (UPND), the Electoral Commission of Zambia said on Monday. The opposition party quickly, however, rejected the result, claiming the electoral commission had colluded to rig the vote against its candidate, to confirm the prophecy.
Similarly, In 2014, when Zambia President at that time, Michael Sata passed on after suffering from a strange illness, and an election was to be carried out, the Fiery Prophet, Joshua Iginla predicted that Edgar Lungu will be the President of the country whenever the election is carried out, even though Sata’s vice President, Dr Scott was appointed as acting President, Lungu was however appointed as the President after the election was observed
