In the first 160 days of 2025, There will be shootings and killings. In 2025, I have not seen anything much that Tinubu’s government will do to ease the economic situation in Nigeria. I see confusion. I see instability and promises without fulfillment. I see confusion in CBN, I see confusion in the finance ministry and in the blue economy ministry. I see the government using propaganda that will not add values. I see President Tinubu getting so worried in 2025. I see some ministers having issues. I see new adjustments in Tinubu’s cabinet. Let us pray that no governor will fall sick or slump. Politicians like Governors Seyi Makinde, Bala Muhammed will not make it. Nyesome Wike will have a political setback. There will be a faction in the Tinubu government. Lagos state APC governorship will bring insult to Sanwo, Tinubu and other leaders. Seyi Tinubu will not be governor of Lagos State. APC members will protest.
The Tinubu government must handle the Rivers State crisis with care. The Rivers State crisis will humble Tinubu’s government, Wike and others as from 2025. There will be a major case against the governor of Rivers State. APC and PDP in Rivers state will create a lot of political tensions. Rivers state governor will overcome major court cases but his government will not be stable. Let them pray against cases of kidnappers, shootings. Let’s pray not to see an attack on any of the governor’s convoy. Wike and some of Tinubu’s ministers will have issues. The ruling party, APC, will have a crisis on so many matters. There will be a lot of demolition, flood and Abuja face will be changed. Abuja in the nearest future will be getting its own Mayor or Governor. There will be a proposal for a Mayor or Governor in Abuja. Wike will do a lot of work in Abuja and he will become very controversial in some of his Abuja policies. I see confusion in EFCC. People will not appreciate the EFCC chairman, Olukoyede will do a lot of work but will not be appreciated. He needs to seek the face of God. Some people will call for his removal but such will not work. Government will still merge some federal agencies.
Let us pray against the death of a top military officer, a top politician and assassination of a top king. I see protests against the Tinubu government at the beginning of the year. I see problems in the petroleum industry unless certain changes are made. There will be scarcity of petroleum. Some people will take EFCC to court and they will be dragged into so many matters, also they will be accused wrongly for violation of human rights. EFCC will embarrass a lot of people and expose a lot of corruption processes. EFCC will have another device to detect fraud. Let’s pray against security challenges in these states, Niger, Benue, Plateau, Sokoto, Borno, Bauchi, Rivers, Ondo, Ekiti, Lagos, Yobe, Katsina, Oyo, Osun, Abia, Anambra, Imo, and Abuja.
