The Coming Elections: 1
20230220
The following writeup details some dreams I have received from the Lord over the past year on the coming election season, one of the most important Nigeria has ever had. I would first write out what God had shown me exactly and then place any comments I may have under a “thoughts” section. Please believe the dreams more than you believe any of my fallible interpretations of them.
It is also important to note here that the Lord has not explicitly revealed any candidate to me in these elections as His choice. Therefore, I am here only to give a watchman’s perspective and not an endorsement of any candidate or a prophecy that a specific candidate is God’s choice.
The Other Party
On 13th April 2022, I had a dream where I was in a classroom as a student, and the teacher in this classroom was one of my pastors whom God had used to mentor me in the prophetic. Let’s call him Pastor A. Pastor A began to write on the classroom board, and while he wrote, he talked also.
Pastor A said some folks have been claiming the next election would end up 65–35 percent between APC–PDP, respectively, but that was a lie. He specifically mentioned that “they are all lying.” Then he added that the next election would probably end with 30–31 percent to APC and 69 percent to another party. He failed to identify this other party.
Then shortly after this, another scene came up where I saw a coffin with “APC” written on it, and then people drove nails into the middle of the coffin and its edges. I got a knowing in the dream that this scene meant a permanent “nail in their coffin.” “Their” here is the APC.
The Igbo “Presidency” & the Arizona Skyfall
On 17th July 2022, I had a dream where I saw an Igbo “presidency” and then Anambra state. I saw them almost at the same time but not together. The “presidency” I saw here was more like an Igbo man winning a presidential election, but I did not actually see him become president. Not sure what happened after he won. That’s why it’s in quotes.
Then shortly after these, another scene came up where I saw something about a Skyfall event and then the state of Arizona in the U.S. Again, I saw them almost at the same time but not together. However, it seemed like the Skyfall event was happening in Arizona around the time of the “presidency” I saw in the first scene. I woke up shortly after.
The Cold Stare
In my dream of 1st September 2022, I saw myself standing on the top floor of a 4-story building in a fenced compound with red gates. I looked down from my top-floor position and saw someone else looking right back at me from outside the gates. This person had clear glasses on and stood by the driver’s door to his white car parked outside in front of the gates. He rested his hands on his waist and just stood there staring at me.
Initially, I thought our eyes got locked by mistake, so I looked away. But when I looked in his direction again, I still saw his strange cold stare. It was so intense that I could feel it. He didn’t utter a word, but I heard what he said. His stare spoke to me, saying, “you should have prayed for me!”
I didn’t understand what that meant until, at some point, he shape-shifted into someone I knew in person who had died from an assassination but wasn’t public knowledge. I remembered that the Lord scolded me in waking life following this person’s death that I should have prayed earnestly for them when He prompted me, and they would have lived.
Looking closer at the man staring at me, I recognized him as Governor Peter Obi. Interestingly enough, the building I stood on was also named “Peter.”
Thoughts
To reiterate, this section speaks to my own interpretations of my dreams above. They are fallible, and you should only trust what God has shown me in my dreams, watching them unfold. That said, here are some of the bugging questions I had from these dreams, which I think you may also have in your mind:
- Could the APC be declared the winner?
- Could there be two elections?
- Who is the “other party?”
- Is the APC dead?
- Is Peter Obi the Igbo “President?”
- Is Nigeria at risk of another “June 12?” Is Peter Obi at risk of assassination?
- What is Skyfall?
- Why was the building a 4-story and also named Peter? Why did Peter Obi ride a white car?
- Who is God’s choice?
- Who will ultimately win the 2023 presidential election?
All said and done, this writeup is simply a call for us to pray earnestly for Nigeria and its future.
God Bless Nigeria!
1. Could the APC be declared the winner?
Yes, the APC could be declared the winner of the presidential election scheduled for 25th February 2023, a week from now. However, from my “other party” dream, it is clear that the win would be a lie, fraudulently peddled by mischievous characters conspiring behind the scenes to rig the election. Almost a repeat of U.S. 2020 Elections and how it went down between Trump and Biden.

It would be in the best interests of the other parties to fight it lawfully through the courts. If they do this, I believe the APC would eventually be revealed to have mustered only 30–31 percent of the votes, which is insufficient for a win.
The above calls for all Nigerians to pray earnestly against rigging in these elections. That God should intervene to expose any dishonest persons.
2. Could there be two elections?
Another way to interpret the situation in the “other party” dream is that Nigeria could have two presidential elections this season. A first presidential election with the APC winning but somehow canceled due to widespread electoral malpractices or violence. Then a second election later conducted with the “other party” winning.
3. Who is the “other party?”
When I had this dream, there was absolutely no talk of the Labour Party as a strong contender for the presidency, as Governor Peter Obi was still in the PDP, aiming for its presidential ticket. A little over a month later, Peter Obi joined the Labour Party on 27th May 2022, shooting it into the limelight as a strong third party capable of winning a presidential election for the first time in recent Nigerian history.
So could Labour Party be the “other party?” God knows. We established earlier that this year, 2023, and beyond would come with many twists and turns. So while from the tale above, the Labour Party seems like the “other party,” really, it could still be the PDP or any of the other 15 parties (excluding APC) vying for the Nigerian presidency. I guess time will tell.
4. Is the APC dead?
Yes, the APC is a walking dead at this point. I believe their choice of candidate in this 2023 presidential election is the “nail in their coffin,” and they would lose relevance soon. Hopefully, that does not translate to the death of their candidate also.
5. Is Peter Obi the Igbo “President?”
I can’t tell for sure. The Lord knew that I knew of Governor Peter Obi in waking life, yet He did not identify him as the Igbo “president” in my dream. That should say something, right?
However, if we consider that I saw Anambra alongside this Igbo “presidency,” then we could also assume that it refers to Obi, as he is from Anambra state. But then, I have also seen a situation in one of my past dreams where a young Igbo soldier in his 30s became interim leader of Nigeria for a while. Perhaps he is the Igbo “president?” (an unelected military president).
6. Is Nigeria at risk of another “June 12?” Is Peter Obi at risk of assassination?
Yes. History could repeat itself in 2 different ways.
June 12 is relatively recent history in Nigeria, as the event happened only 30 years ago. It was a free and fair election, conducted on 12th June 1993 and annulled 12 days after, leading to M.K.O. Abiola being Nigeria’s first elected “president” that never was. It is said that Abiola was a personal friend of General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB), the unelected military “president” who annulled the election. He also apparently supported IBB’s rise to power.
Now let’s draw parallels to our situation in 2023. The presidential candidate of the APC, Governor Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is one of the powerful people that supported President Muhammadu Buhari’s successful presidential bids in 2015 and 2019. So if the scenario painted in number 2 above turns happens, then we could have a version of June 12 play out such that a supporter of a sitting president gets “betrayed” again by that president at the polls.
The second and more serious scenario is the tale told by my last two dreams above. In the “Igbo Presidency” dream, I did not see the president-elect become president in the dream, much like Abiola did not become president in 1993. Furthermore, the “Cold Stare” dream hints at a possible assassination of Governor Peter Obi, one of the front-runners in this election. If we assume Peter Obi to be the said Igbo “president,” then an assassination, silent or otherwise, would very much mirror Abiola’s death in detention which was rumoured to have been a silent assassination.
But like my “Cold Stare” dream says, the answer is prayer, not even precautions in this case. We must get on our knees and intercede for our candidates and this election, praying against violence and assassinations. Prayer is powerful!
7. What is Skyfall?
One interesting thing about the timing of my “Igbo Presidency / Arizona Skyfall” dream was that I was rewatching all recent Daniel-Craig James Bond movies at the time. The only one I did not rewatch then was Skyfall (2012), which I think my dream was pointing me to as the key to understanding the Skyfall symbol in my dream. So I rewatched the Skyfall movie and saw that it was about a serious data leak that exposed MI6’s spy network and some other legal/illegal covert programs to the embarrassment of MI6.
Therefore, while an event specifically named Skyfall could actually happen in the United States soon, I believe this dream is saying that a big exposure will happen soon in Arizona that may embarrass many powerful folks in the United States.
8. Why was the building a 4-story and also named Peter? Why did Peter Obi ride a white car?
This is not the first time a 4-story building has featured in one of my dreams about Nigeria. I believe the building itself refers to Nigeria, and the four levels basically refer to the tiers and arms of government in Nigeria, including a fourth estate often called the people’s branch. You can read more about this 4-story dream symbol in my writeup below:
As for why the building is named “Peter,” we can take a clue from the Lord Jesus Christ’s description of the word in the Bible:
18 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock, I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. — Matt. 16:18
Therefore, I think the Lord is signaling through the “Peter” building symbol that He can (note: can, not will) use Peter Obi also to lay the foundation of the New Nigeria we hope to see. This is my assumption and not something the Lord definitely revealed to me.
But if I’m right about this comparison between Peter Obi and Apostle Peter, then we must understand that a President Peter Obi is also at risk of being deceived by the devil once he is in power. However, just like the Lord Jesus prayed earnestly for Apostle Peter to be converted and remain steadfast, we must also continually do the same for a President Peter Obi, lest he strays completely. Our prayers can help guide and keep him on the right path.
However, this is not to place Peter Obi on a pedestal or endorse him as God’s choice in this 2023 election (again, the Lord never explicitly pointed a candidate out to me as His choice). It is just a note to say that God can use him if only we would pray for him. Perhaps this is also why he rode in a white car in the “Cold Stare” dream. White (dove) symbolizes peace and the Holy Spirit. Therefore, if we keep Peter Obi in our prayers, I believe the Holy Spirit can carry him through Nigeria’s “red gates” to bring peace to Nigeria.
9. Who is God’s choice?
While the only two presidential candidates that God has featured in my dreams this election season are Tinubu and Peter Obi, I can’t categorically tell you that either is God’s choice of president for this nation. The Lord never specifically mentioned either of them as His choice.
However, just like my “Cold Stare” dream says, for the three front runners in this 2023 election season: Obi, Tinubu, and Atiku, it would be in our best interests to pray for their safety, especially Peter Obi. Because should any harm come to any of them in this election season (again, especially Obi), our gates could further be painted red with blood.
10. Who will ultimately win the 2023 Presidential Election?
Oh, this one is simple: The Other Party!
