2027: Fresh Prophecy Reveals ADC Coalition Ticket That Can Unseat Tinubu
The Senior Pastor of The Second Coming of Christ Ministry, Adewale Giwa, has disclosed that only a joint ticket of Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi on the African Democratic Congress, ADC, coalition can defeat President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
Pastor Giwa noted that the coalition would lose if Obi refuses to step down for Atiku as ADC’s presidential candidate.
Speaking with DAILY POST, the clergyman disclosed that Obi can get much votes from the North like Atiku would pull.
He said: “The coalition will be better if Atiku and Obi come together, only Atiku and Obi’s ticket can defeat the ruling party.
“If Obi is picked as the presidential candidate for the coalition, I don’t see victory for the coalition party.
“Only Atiku-Obi ticket can defeat Tinubu because he can’t get the support of the Northerners, can’t get the Southerners, but can only get support from the Southeast where he comes from.”
Pastor Giwa also disclosed that Atiku can handover to someone from the Southeast if he becomes president.
“If Atiku becomes the next president, I’m sure he is more reliable to handover power to the Southeast,” he said.
He insisted that a Southeasterner would not be allowed to emerge as Nigeria’s president now.
Pastor Giwa added: “As it is, if anybody from the Southeast is coming to contest against the ruling party, they won’t allow him to win no matter how popular he is.
“If Obi should calm down and subject himself under Atiku, they are good to go.
“He may want to step down considering his last presidential election, you know he tested his popularity.
“Obi will be willing because if won’t step down he won’t have joined the coalition. He knows that when it comes to popularity and political strength, Atiku has it more than him, so he will be willing to step down and that will be a good ticket for Nigeria.”

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is set to release the final list of candidates contesting the February 6, 2027.

According to The Nation, the commission is scheduled to publish the final list on Saturday, October 10, 2026, in line with Section 32(1) of the Electoral Act 2026.
There are 8 affected states where governorship elections will not hold as part of the February 2027 electoral exercise because they operate on separate election schedules.
INEC Chairman, Professor Joash Amupitan, disclosed during a world press conference and stakeholders’ meeting that 21 of Nigeria’s 22 registered political parties nominated 936 governorship and deputy governorship candidates for the 28 states scheduled to elect governors in 2027.
The parties also nominated 9,692 candidates for the State Houses of Assembly elections.
Section 32(1) of the Electoral Act 2026 requires INEC to publish the names and addresses of nominated candidates at least 60 days before an election.
The law also provides a procedure for political parties to notify the commission if a candidate’s name is missing from the published list.
Under Section 32(2), such notification must be submitted in writing, signed by the party’s national chairman and secretary, and supported by an affidavit within 14 days of publication.
Although governorship elections will not take place in the eight excluded states during the February 2027 exercise, State House of Assembly elections are scheduled across all 36 states.
The commission’s final list is expected to provide further details of the candidates and political parties participating in the elections.
INEC had earlier set September 19, 2026, as the deadline for substituting candidates and September 26, 2026, as the final date for submitting nomination forms.
