Prophet Gives Hilarious Reasons Why God Changed His Prophecy About Pres. Buhari's Death

Akinbodunse in a video said the next president of Nigeria is a young person whose name begins with “S”. He said, “Nigeria, your next president is a youth. I don’t want to care about whatever anyone may say, your next president is a youth. God has left fathers and God has located a youth.  I see a name starting with “S”. I see a chair and I see “S” sitting on the chair. And the country becomes peaceful. If you know Obasanjo, tell Obasanjo, God said he must use all the resources he has to support this elected youth by God. The same way Samuel supported David.” As if that was enough, he gave this prophecy in 2018 and asked Nigerians to seriously warn president Buhari against going for a second term because the lord told him he will die before election day. See the prophecy below. ‘Please Nigerians, warn Buhari that he is going beyond his boundary, the Lord said his tenure is just for 4 years, if he tries to contest for the second term, before they vote he will die’’ However, after seeing ...

Michael Cohen Calls Trump a 'Conman' and cheat'. Says Trump Lied About Hush Money, Knew About Stolen emails

'I am humbled to be given the opportunity to tell the truth' Cohen can be heard while briefing the press. Who is Michael Cohen? Donald Trump's former fixer whose loyalty melted away under legal heat. He had produced a $35,000 cheque showing that, while in office, Donald Trump personally reimbursed him for paying off porn star Stormy Daniels in the days before the 2016 election. In explosive testimony to Congress, Cohen said: "The president of the United States thus wrote a personal cheque for the payment of hush money as part of a criminal scheme to violate campaign finance laws." The cheque, dated Aug 1, 2017, was pursuant to the cover-up, which was the basis of his guilty plea. He received a total of 11 cheques from Mr Trump over a year after making a $130,000 payment to Ms Daniels, Cohen said. Cohen also claimed Mr Trump knew in advance that Wikileaks was going to release emails hacked from the Democratic Party during the 2016 election. He also claimed the pres...

He said a situation where the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) adopted different measures for the conduct of election for different parts of the country is not acceptable.

Would The Impact of Brexit have Negative Effect on Britain’s NHS?

Among the concerns for Britain’s health service raised in the Lancet study are recruitment and retention after the UK’s EU departure. According to a review published in the Lancet, Br exit  will cause significant harm to Britain’s national health service (NHS), with a no-deal option leading to the worst outcomes,  All forms of Brexit will negatively affect the  NHS , but a no-deal outcome would have negative effects on staff, financing, availability of medicines and vaccines, sharing of information and medical research, the study states. While the withdrawal agreement negotiated between the United Kingdom and European Union, but not agreed by the British parliament, offers a more positive scenario compared to no deal, there are serious concerns about the negative impact of Brexit on the NHS beyond the transition period, say the authors. Sould their analysis be dismissed as 'project fear'? However, what we must know is this is not something that can be done hastily without pote...
