From Everest Ezihe, Owerri
Prophet Nnamdi Akujor of Overcomers Christian Mission International, Aladinma, Owerri, has advised Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma, to exercise caution in choosing his successor, insisting that he had received a spiritual revelation of possible political crisis and betrayal surrounding the 2027 transition of power in the State.
Akujor, popularly known as Brother Nnamdi, made the disclosure at the weekend while rounding off his sermon during the globally attended 2026 International Youth Fellowship Convention of the church, held at its auditorium in Owerri.
The convention, which had the theme, “Kings and Priests,” drawn from Revelation 5:10, was held under the church leadership of Bishop (Mrs.) Francisca Ihuoma Ezeugo.
The prophet who’s the church Coordinator, Friday Miracle Service and Leader of her Prayer Force has been been in prophetic ministry for over 30 years with the church, said his warning was based on what he described as divine revelations concerning the political future of Imo State and Nigeria at large.
According to him, Governor Uzodimma should be particularly prayerful and careful about the person to whom he would temporarily hand over the reins of government if he proceeds to the Senate after the 2027 elections.
Akujor said: “Imo State! Hey! I see the political cloud of Imo State very dark. Very, very dark. You know, it doesn’t concern you all here, right? But let it be that I’m saying that based on God’s revelation and directive.”
He further claimed that his spiritual revelation indicated the possibility of disagreements between the governor and his successor, alleging that such disagreements could degenerate into political rivalry, betrayal, disloyalty, threats and internal party conflicts.
He said: “I prophetically received that there will be issues upon issues and upon issues. There will be crisis when this man, the governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodimma, in 2027 hands over power to somebody and says, ‘Hold this mantle of leadership while I go to the Senate.’”
Akujor further alleged that disagreements could emerge over succession arrangements and the political understanding surrounding the emergence of a successor.
He warned that disputes over zoning and the interpretation of the state’s political Charter of Equity, if not properly managed, could heighten political tension leading to mayhem and lost of lives.
The cleric also spoke of what he described as possible threats to lives, arrests, destruction of property and other forms of violence arising from the political disagreements.
However, he called for prayers and peaceful political transition, urging political leaders and residents of the state to reject violence before, during and after the 2027 elections.
