The 2027 Nigerian general elections are still months away, but the political atmosphere is already heating up — and this time, it is not a politician making the headlines.
Prophet Joshua Iginla, founder of Champions Royal Assembly in Abuja, has released a bold prophetic statement targeting the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), warning the party to prepare for surprising setbacks in the upcoming elections.

What Did Prophet Iginla Say?
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Joshua Iginla Ministries, in a video titled Prophetic Insight and Clarity for Nigeria's Future, the cleric declared that the APC should expect to lose ground in states they currently consider strongholds. According to the prophet, certain states will stun the ruling party during the 2027 campaign season — losses the APC is not anticipating.
The video has since drawn widespread reactions across Nigerian social media, with many Nigerians debating whether the prediction will come to pass.
APC's Current Political Standing
The APC has been Nigeria's ruling party since May 2015. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu currently leads the federal government, having won the 2023 presidential election in a result that was subsequently challenged at the Supreme Court.
As 2027 approaches, the party faces growing opposition from various political coalitions, including members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Labour Party supporters, who have continued to mobilize ahead of the next election cycle.
Is This The First Time Iginla Has Spoken On Nigeria's Elections?
No. Prophet Iginla has previously made several prophecies regarding Nigerian politics, including statements about President Tinubu's administration and opposition figures like Peter Obi. His latest prophecy comes at a time when political tension is rising, with multiple opposition figures already positioning themselves for 2027 — including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and Labour Party's Peter Obi, both widely expected to contest.
What Nigerians Are Saying
Reactions to the prophecy have been divided. Some Nigerians believe prophetic warnings carry weight and should be taken seriously, while others argue that political outcomes are ultimately decided by voters at the polls, not spiritual declarations. Political analysts, meanwhile, note that the APC's internal pressures and rising cost-of-living concerns under Tinubu's administration may themselves be enough to make the prophecy feel credible to many citizens.
What Comes Next?
With opposition parties actively building coalitions and key figures like Atiku and Obi expected to mount serious challenges, the 2027 election is shaping up to be one of Nigeria's most competitive in recent memory. Whether Prophet Iginla's prophecy materialises or not, the political pressure on the APC is real — and growing.
