Failed Prophecy by Bishop Feyi Daniels

However none of these predictions came true .On May 29 2024 Bola Tinubu was sworn in as Nigerias president in a relatively peaceful transition with no sign of an interim government or mass unrest .

Conviction and Sentencing
While his prophecy faded into irrelevance Bishop Feyi Daniels soon made headlines for another reason .He was accused and later convicted of sexually assaulting a female church member during what was described as a “speaking in tongues” session at his Lekki residence .
On January 26 2024 the Ikeja Sexual Offences and Domestic Violence Court sentenced him to life imprisonment .The conviction shocked both his followers and critics turning the once celebrated preacher into a disgraced figure .
Reno Omokris Reaction: “People Who Deceived Obi”
In the aftermath of the sentencing political commentator and former presidential aide Reno Omokri resurfaced an old video of Daniels failed prophecy .Sharing it online Omokri mocked the preacher and pointed to him as an example of those who misled Peter Obis supporters .
Omokri captioned the post
“These are people who deceived Obi”
His remarks stirred significant conversation highlighting the influence of religious leaders in shaping political opinions during the election period .
Public Backlash and Commentary
Nigerians across social media platforms were quick to respond with many condemning Daniels and questioning the role of pastors in politics .
Tobiloba remarked:
“This man just dreamt and called it a prophecy .And people who went to school believed him .People even questioned Nigerias sovereignty claiming the UN would intervene .I have no words .
Ekana Basi added:
“I am of the opinion that Pastors and religious leaders should not be openly involved in politics .
Ayodeji Austin criticized Daniels confidence:
“See how he said this with boldness even though he knew he was lying .
Temi was scathing:
“It is Obi and his gullible followers that fell for it. The pastor was just acting out a script .
Sunday Dankwai reflected on Daniels downfall:
“Some people call themselves men of God but they lack direction .If it is truly from God it must come to pass .Sadly nothing happened he is fake .
Reflection on Prophetic Influence and Accountability
The incident raises deeper questions about the intersection of religion and politics in Nigeria .Many political campaigns have seen heavy involvement from pastors and prophets who present their predictions as divine revelations .When these prophecies fail they erode public trust and damage the credibility of religious leadership .
Daniels imprisonment compounds the issue as it not only discredits his prophetic authority but also tarnishes the reputation of the church he once led . Omokris mocking tone reflects the frustration of many Nigerians who feel misled by political prophecies during the 2023 election cycle.
Conclusion
Bishop Feyi Danielss story is a cautionary tale of misplaced faith false prophecy and moral failure .His predictions about Peter Obi never materialized and his subsequent conviction for sexual assault has permanently stained his legacy .
As Reno Omokri and other commentators noted Danielss fall highlights the dangers of mixing politics with prophecy .It serves as a reminder that moral authority requires not just conviction but also integrity truthfulness and accountability .
