"Jonathan Will Suffer Massive Disgrace In 2015" - Prophet Marcus Korede Tibetan

Controversial cleric and shepherd of Celestial Church of Christ, Elisha Parish, Prophet Marcus Korede Oluwatosin Tibetan has predicted the disgrace of President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015.

In an interview with ENCOMIUM Weekly, Tibetan gave more alarming prophetic revelations, while insisting there would be no bloodshed in the land.

Sir, there is so much anxiety in the political landscape and 2015 is already pregnant with fears, as a seer and an anointed prophet of God, what should we expect in 2015?

God said in the book of Genesis Chapter 1, ‘Let there be light and there was light’. It is the people’s voice that will prevail. God does have any special thing for 2015 but the more I stop telling you lies, that is when we will know peace in our house. The country has no middle class and only low class, the levelers and the people up there who have the long spoons. When they stop digging their long spoons into the federal purse, then we can have a peaceful 2015. But if this fraud is not stopped, the people will be in danger.
