The General Overseer of the Evangelical Bible Outreach Prayer Ministry International, Prophet Isa El-Buba, has implored Nigerians not to bother themselves about the political aspiration of former military president, General Ibrahim Babangida, saying that the hand of God was not upon him and could never rule Nigeria again.

Speaking with newsmen in Jos, Prophet El-Buba said Babangida was simply dissipating his energy and resources in vain, adding that those whom God had not chosen could not force themselves on Nigerians, as leaders, otherwise they would incur the wrath of God.

The general overseer stated that all the hardship being experienced in the country currently started as a result of his bad style of leadership, induced by high level corruption.

Said he: “The pains of Nigerians originated from Babangida through his bad economic policies. He messed up the country and institutionalised corruption. If he cannot change the phase of the country as military president with such an enormous power, there is nothing he can do in this present situation.”

“The most important thing is that God has rejected him; the hand of God is not upon him as far as 2011 presidential election is concern. He is simply dissipating his energy and resources in vain,” he said.

Prophet El-Buba said the circumstances surrounding the emergence of Dr. Goodluck Jonathan as the acting president of Nigeria depicted that the hand of God was upon him and advised him to steer the affairs of the nation in line with the desire of the common people, adding that his commitment to pursue energy and electoral reforms was a welcome development.

According to him, his name would go down in history, if he can show full and total commitment to the sectors as one of the great leaders of Nigeria.

He added added that to achieve this, the acting president must shut his ears to those parading themselves as godfathers.

The clergyman condemned those clamouring for power to remain in the North, adding that the era where the North thought it could go it all alone as far as leadership of Nigeria was concern was over. He scaid what the nation needed now was a leader that could address the myriad of problems confronting the country.

“We the North should not think we have the monopoly of power, we cannot do it alone. It is high time we put aside the mentality that the vote of the North can make any candidate become the president of this great nation.

“All what we need as a nation is a good leader no matter where he comes from, a leader who can pursue the need of the common man,” he said

Was the hand of God upon him when he ruled Nigeria?

Prophets are not God.

I have said it a thousand times, IBB is simply being used as rabbit by the north to retain Presidency via the rotation thing in 2011. He IBB himself knows that he has no prayers in a free and fair vote of Nigerians but he will continue to make noise so that the south will come to accept any other Northerner instead of him.

The true man of God is the one that is on the side of common man.

Just another thought, IBB that did not allow democracy when he was in charge, would he now allow power to go to the south in 2015 If was elected come in 2011( and a very big if) . His antecedent did not suggest he has any credibility in a civil society. He will propably rule with Iron fist. The office of the President in Nigeria has too much power hungry to give to a drunkerd like IBB and co.

Empty barrel makes the most noise.

A sane mind wouldn't need a crystal ball to see that ibb ambition is a curse to nigeria.It is a case of one step forward,a million step backward.

It literaly shows that nigeria is a rogue,when a prolific rogue like ibb can be allowed to contest for the highest post of the land.

I don't need to be a prophet to know that your man is unelectable. The only way he has a chance is if Jonathan gets into a very weird unholy alliance with IBB in other to be IBB's number 2. That will be a let down on Jonathan's part.

But otherwise, strength for strength, IBB can not get elected in Nigeria.

If he is that much of a political bulldozer he should not even wait for the PDP ticket. He should declare for a lower party and test his popularity that way. If he wins, I will duff my cap forever.

What happened to nigerians 12 billion dollars that ibb confiscated till this day?

God should not be brought into any matter wit IBB. Cos dat man is a devil's incarnate.

Nigerian popultion is  a case of water water everywhere,no water to drink.Suppose 150 milion people dabbling over few retarded,outdated  thieves to rule them.

In the abundance of water,the fool is thirsty.

Nigerians dont need a prophet to tell them that Ibb's presidential ambition is really a waist of time and resourses.
