Campaign posters of
Reverend King who is currently incarcerated in prison after being sentenced to
death by hanging, have began to flood the streets.
The convicted prisoner is
said to be running for the presidency in the 2109 election under the platform
of the Advanced Peoples Democratic Alliance (APDA).
The General Overseer of
Christian Praying Assembly (CPA), was was arraigned on September 26, 2006 on a
six-count charge of attempted murder and murder.
He was sentenced to death
by hanging in 2007 by Justice Joseph Oyewole at a Lagos High Court tried for
murder of a church member, Ann Uzoh.
The judgement was upheld by
the Court of Appeal, Lagos Division and finally affirmed by Justice Sylvester
Ngwuta of the Supreme Court in 2016.
But according to a
Brazil-based church leader, Rt Rev Ernest King, many Nigerians have been going
to the prison in Sokoto to mount pressure on Rev King to come and contest and
deliver the country.
According to a report by
Newsmakers in February (during Rev. King’s birthday celebration), Ernest King
said:
“This is the man that has
solution for Nigeria. He prophesied about Nigeria’s case 18 years ago, that the
country will come to a stage where there will be no solution. He said that he
would be somewhere resting and they would bring the issue of Nigeria to him for
him to solve for them.
“That was how they went to
the prison about two months ago pleading that he should come and take over
Nigeria. He had prophesied this 18 years ago.
“If Rev King should be
allowed to handle Nigeria under 5 years, Nigeria will be one of the best
countries in the world.”
He added:
“This is the man that has
solution to every problem on Earth, but Nigerians don’t know what God gave
them. The wicked and occult people want to kill him, but it’s impossible. As he
told them in the Court on that day, there’s no rope on Earth that can enter Rev
King’s head.”
