Pastor Blames Deceitful Spirit On Fail Of Super Falcons Games Prediction

Reverend Dr. Simeon Chinedu Ononogbu, a former president of the Nigerian Christian Association (CAN) in Ebonyi State, blamed a “deceitful” spirit for his unsuccessful forecast that the Super Falcons will reach the semi-finals of the FIFA Women’s World Cup in France.

“It’s a pity that the Falcons prediction failed, meaning it wasn’t God’s revelation. We have so many spirits that can deceive individuals and we will make errors like this if we are not cautious.

The bible says that some spirits at times, transform into angels of light to talk to us. We have “fallen’’ spirits that deceive the children of God because we are humans and weaker than the other spirits.

“At times when we don’t interpret properly, we will have problems out of it and this can also be seen as a wrong interpretation,” he said. Ononogbu had predicted that the Falcons would reach the semi-finals of the tournament, while the host, France, would place fifth.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria, he, however, insisted that in spite of the failed prophesy, the revelation of France placing fifth in the tournament still stands because it is from God.

“This particular interpretation was clearer than that of the Falcons and we should wait till the end of the competition for its fulfillment,” he said.

Ononogbu urged Nigerians not to judge him with the failed prophesy as he had correctly made eight-significant prophesies which were fulfilled.

“I earlier predicted the visit of Rev, Uma Ukpai to Ebonyi and those who refused to heed the directive on the venue saw the number of people that died,” he revealed.
