THE 3 CHOICES BEFORE PROF. OLUWAYEMISI OLUWALEKE OSINBAJO, VP, FEDERAL REPULIC OF NIGERIA

t the University of Lagos in the 1980s during our time, the ideological warfare between the United States of America, the bastion of capitalism and erstwhile communist laager of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR) was the staple of student unionism. The capitalist intellectuals or the "agbero" bourgeois thinkers as those of us in the ideological school of Prof. Akin Oyebode were taught constantly butted heads with the comrades on campus. Prof. Akin Oyebode of the Faculty of Law was the organon and constellatory avatar for both teacher and student ideological comrades on campus. And for good measure, Oyebode fitted the bill off pat as a product of two ideological worlds; a first class from Kiev and another first class from Harvard topping it with a PhD from Canada's most prestigious law school. It was during my ideological tutelary years on campus that I met Dr. Yemi Osinbajo, who was also a law teacher even though I didn't read Law. He came across as a soft-spoken, genial and conservatively-reserved person with disdain for open confrontation, but inwardly reflective. That was 34 years ago.

Having left the academy for public service, the professor of Law has maintained his intellectual carriage with a plus; a born-again Christian determined to make an impact in our world. To be sure, he didn't jockey for his current job as the Number Two Citizen in Nigeria, for Fate and Destiny as The Teacher disclosed took him thus far ( Ecclesiastes 6:10).

When sundry centrifugal groups and political organizations were being cobbled together to form the APC to confront erstwhile behemoth called the PDP preparatory to the 2015 Presidential Election, Prof. Osinbajo was out of the loop. He came into the picture as a Southern Christian to be a running mate to Gen. Muhammadu Buhari a Northern Muslim, in the balancing act to the often combustible ethno-religious factor in Nigerian politics. As running mate to then Candidate Buhari, I disclosed in this column on Monday December 29, 2014 thus: "Finally, you are coming back at this time as a democratically-elected head of state not by your efforts as I explained above, but because you are joined at the spiritual hips with one man known as Yemi Osinbajo. �" (This was three months before the 2015 Presidential Elections See link to prophecy here:

(https://nigeriaworld.com/feature/publication/fayemiwo/122914.htm).

The Holy Spirit showed us that Gen. Muhammadu Buhari would win the election, because he picked Prof. Yemi Osinbajo as his running mate.

Both Buhari and Osinbajo won that epochal election as our prophecy declared, but four years later in our latest prophecy as build up to the 2019 Presidential Election, we disclosed in this column that the spiritual hips and bonds between the twain had broken. Here again were the prophecies published in this column on Thursday January 04, 2018: "The spiritual hips between President Muhammadu Buhari and VP Yemi Osinbajo splintered and broke into pieces few months ago. The spiritual pact was broken by the very words of President Muhammadu Buhari which he made in 2014�" (See the full prophecy published here 14 months before the 2019 Presidential Election which the stake-holders didn't take seriously or patently misinterpreted as will be presently elucidated upon later in this treatise: (https://nigeriaworld.com/feature/publication/fayemiwo/010418.html)

Consequent upon the refusal of the PDP to do what we told them to do or our spiritual advise was ignored and they didn't do what we told them in that prophecy to do spiritually; now it is no longer a secret that VP Osinbajo currently has his back to the walls in Aso Rock. In the prevailing scenarios, here are three choices before VP Osinbajo as a honorable man.

RESIGNATION: - When we disclosed the prophecy of the True Lord God Almighty last year here in this column on January 04, 2018, the caption was thus: "Exclusive: Nigeria 2019 Political Prophecy: A Yoruba Man Will Be President Serendipitously" (https://nigeriaworld.com/feature/publication/fayemiwo/010418.html). Curiously we didn't mention the name of the Yoruba person, but a generic interpretation pointed to two personalities from that ethnic group which the two pictures in that prophecy artfully decoded. As the Word of Life says, "For no prophecy was ever brought forth by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit" (2 Peter 1:21) and so we declared with the imprimatur of the Holy Spirit. When a prophet of the Living God announces a prophecy and or prophetic message, it is dangerous to hazard its interpretation without recourse to the harbinger; otherwise there is danger of inexactitudes. To peremptorily assume the outcome of a prophecy is unbiblical. What happened next was a message from a Church in the Dallas-Ft. Worth Area in Texas that some believers had gathered and began to pray for the prophecy to benefit a particular person. I also gathered that similar prayer clusters were organized privately in Nigeria to this effect. You see, there have been numerous prophecies that we have disclosed in this column that were fulfilled not the way and manner people of the world thought they would be fulfilled. For examples, when we disclosed that Mr. David Cameron would not return as Prime Minister of Britain on April 21, 2015; readers thought it would be through election defeat. He resigned few months later. When we disclosed that Mrs. Hilary Clinton would win the 2016 Presidential Election here in the United States, she indeed "win"" that epochal election, when she "won" by 2 million votes.

The prophet that the Almighty God showed a prophecy to is the one to be contacted to explain more and what should be done on how to fulfill such prophecies just as Pharaoh told Joseph: "Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one so discerning and wise as you�" (Gen. 41:39). King Nebuchadnezzar made similar statement when the Lord God Almighty gave the revelation of the king's dreams to Daniel thus: "At this King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face and paid homage to Daniel, and ordered that an offering of incense be presented to him. The king said to Daniel; "Your God is truly the God of gods and Lord of lord of kings, a revealer of mysteries, since you were able to reveal this mystery�" (Daniel 2:46). The same when Daniel interpreted the mysterious writing on the Palace Walls to King Belshazzar in Daniel 5:25. Of most importance was what Daniel instructed the king to do to avert the certain disaster: humble yourself, renounce idolatry, glorify the True Lord God Almighty and revere Him (Daniel 5:22-24). When the Almighty God decreed disaster over Nineveh, He sent Jonah to warn them, in spite of Jonah's recalcitrance, the Ninevites repented awhile. Prophecies are not information and news that genuine men and women of God disclose for amusement and people think they can run away with and start figuring out how they can make it work out for them. You must do something afterwards which will be conveyed to the herald of the prophecies by the Lord God Almighty Who gave the prophecies in the first place. You read of how Pharaoh asked what would be done and Joseph told him what should be done in two phases; the first seven years of plenty and the second seven years of famine. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar would have been president of Nigeria today as I have disclosed in this column on Friday, December 07, 2018 if he had listened and carried out the instructions we gave to him in Abuja when his team came to my guest house. In that prophecy, we laid out in details what he should do as conveyed by the Holy Spirit, but his campaign team thought it was a joke and Atiku Abubakar missed his destiny (See the link: Please read the prophecy thoroughly to understand it:- (https://nigeriaworld.com/feature/publication/fayemiwo/120718.html)

The instructions you follow, believe and obey will determine whether the prophecies of the Almighty God delivered by genuine men and women of God would be fulfilled in your life. If Moses didn't listen and obey the instructions of the Almighty God on how to confront Pharaoh, the children of Israel would not have gained their freedom.

Now that Prof Yemi Osinbajo has got to this level so far, he has the sacred right and duty to resign so that his loyalty to his boss will not continue to dog the Buhari Administration. In America's 343-year-old political history, there were two vice-presidents that had resigned from the office and since Nigeria copied its current democracy from us, a historical parallel is germane indeed. It took intense debate and rigorous disquisitions for a month among the drafters of the current US Constitution between Monday August 06, 1787 and September 08, 1787 for the final document to be ratified by the full assembly in Philadelphia on September 17, 1787. The quartet of Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Thomas Maine and John Adams who wrote much of the document argued on whether the position of a vice-president should be created in the first place. The founding fathers already knew that George Washington would become first president and Alexander Hamilton had already told John Adams who brought the Constitution for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to Philadelphia for incorporation that; "George Washington should be made a dictator and a king for life." Madison then asked jocularly what the title of Washington would be, since in his document he had already proposed a federal system comprising of President, Congress and Senate. In it he called for the creation of the "Office of the Presidency." When Washington heard about Hamilton's suggestion, he sent feelers to his colleagues that he would not want to be a king and certainly not a dictator or president-for-life. Since these founding fathers were influenced by the writings of the Enlightenment Thinkers of the 17th Century, especially Locke and Montesquieu, the need for separation of powers became focus. But how do you address the president of the United States reared its ugly head again? Even though 70 individuals were appointed as delegates to the Constitutional Convention, the "inner causes" knew what they wanted. By the way, the Number 70 was taken from the Holy Bible ( "Then the Lord said to Moses; Come up to the Lord-you and Aaaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders-and you are to worship at a distance"-Exodus 24:1, Exodus 24:9, Numbers 11:24, Ezekiel 8:11). These 70 elders later became known as the Sanhedrin during the Earthly Ministry of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As a matter of fact, the Number 70 began in Genesis and Exodus: see Exodus 1:5 spanning through the postexilic period and most probably to date).

Having adopted Madison's creation of the "Office of the Presidency" three titles were suggested for the office. The first was; "Your Highness" proposed by John Adams; "Your Electoral Highness" proposed by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia and the third, "Your Majestic Excellency." Mr. George Washington rejected the three and decided to be sworn in with the Holy Bible on April 30, 1789 on oath thus: "Long Live George Washington, President of the United States" which endures today. Unable to come to terms with an Imperial Presidency, the founding fathers decided to create the position of vice-presidency. Curiously, the founding fathers agreed that the Senate should choose its own president and in case the president is incapacitated, the Senate President would take over, thus a vice-president was off the table. Since the founding fathers had already made up their minds to make George Washington the first president, they prevailed on Adams to serve as vice-president with his 34 electoral votes to 69 electoral votes of Washington in the first presidential election of 1789 and both were sworn in on April 30, 1789 heralding the First, Second, Third and Fourth Congresses of the United States for two terms on March 03, 1797. Now another glitch came up; how do you address John Adams? Because it was an after-thought, funny titles such as "Your Most Supercilious Excellency" or "His Rotundity" jocularly proposed by Sen. Ralph Izard of South Carolina who served as Senate President pro tempore in 1794 and many funny titles sprouted mostly as denigration. But because George Washington had already set the tone, the Vice-president soon became known and addressed as Mr. Vice-President.

In Nigeria, Dr Alexander Ifeanyichukwu Ekwueme became running mate and eventually vice-president to Alhaji Shehu Usman Aliyu Shagari at the NPN National Convention at the Mainland Hotel, Oyingbo Lagos on October 2-6, 1978 when he made a hefty donation of N1m (about $1.6m in those days). When Nigeria adopted the same 1979 Constitution in 1999, the "Northern power brokers" that brought retired Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo back to power insisted he must pick Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as his running mate cum vice-president. Late Chief MKO Abiola had rejected Atiku and instead picked Ambassador Babagana Kingibe as his running mate at the SDP National Convention in Jos, Plateau State on March 27-29, 1993 which contributed to the June 12, 1993 political debacle. Because the vice-presidency is a sinecure position or as they say in local parlance, "a spare tire" an ambitious vice-president can easily get into trouble, because he or she serves at the pleasure of the boss; the president.

Here in the United States where Nigeria copied its presidential system, only two times had a vice-president resigned from office. Vice-President John Caldwell Calhoun (1782-1850) from South Carolina disagreed with his boss, President Andrew Jackson on two policy decisions forcing him to quit in 1832 during their second term and then contested for a senatorial seat and won on November 26, 1845. Vice-President Spiro Theodore Agnew resigned on October 10, 1973 over $30,000 tax evasion and other financial malfeasance when he was Maryland governor in 1967. He hadn't served out his term as governor when Republican Presidential Candidate Richard Nixon tapped Agnew as his running mate in 1968. Both served their first term together and ran again on joint ticket for a second term in 1972. Following his woes, Nixon nominated Gerald Ford as replacement in October 1973 and Ford was confirmed within two months, even though the Democrats controlled the Congress. In 1974, Nixon himself resigned over the Watergate Scandal paving way for Ford to become president who in turn tapped Sen. Nelson Rockefeller as Vice-President. Ford became the first person in US history to become vice-president and president without being elected, like Good Jonathan of Nigeria.

When the late sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo resigned from the Yakubu Gowon military administration in 1971, it was because of principles. As the powerful minister of finance and vice-president, he could have compromised his principles even after watching the body language of the military junta on its tepid transition-to-civilian rule, but Awo was a man of principles. He quit and four years later, the Yakubu Gowon junta was toppled. While in far-away state visit to Moscow, Russia in 1986, Commodore Okoh Ebitu Ukiwe as military vice-president to military junta leader, Gen Ibrahim Babangida was asked about Nigeria's admission into the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) by the Babangida military administration. Ever frank and principled, Ukiwe told it as it should be; the issue of Nigeria's membership of the Islamic Body was never tabled before the then Armed Forces Ruling Council (AFRC) and as such could not be defended. Upon returning to Nigeria, the Babangida Boys thought they would humiliate Ukiwe. They cut-off his office and in effect access to Babangida at Doddan Barracks and wanted to rubbish that gallant and courageous man. Ukiwe was his principled self. He turned in his resignation letter in October 1986 and called it quits. When Olusegun Obasanjo, a notorious sexual harasser began to make life difficult for Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala in 2007 as minister of finance, the lady couldn't be brow-beaten. She maintained her principles by turning in her letter of resignation and returned to the World Bank here in Washington DC in December 2007. Men and women of principles maintain their honor and dignity by quitting before they are humiliated and turned to tatters. This is the first honorable option and honorific path for Professor Yemi Osinbajo right now as Vice-President Federal Republic of Nigeria.

REBELLION: - When Olusegun Obasanjo was plucked by his military troglodytes in 1998 to return to power from prison, he had hit rock bottom. Flat broke and in the wilderness, he ran to Robert McNamara (1916-2009) and used his CIA connections here in America to garner illicit funds to prosecute the 1999 Presidential Elections in Nigeria under the PDP. Conscious of his lack of political platform, his Northern military-civilian local compradors' and industrial complexes foisted Atiku Abubakar on him as vice-president. Obasanjo had no choice and he needed the PF political machine established by the late Gen. Shehu Musa Yar�dua which Atiku his god-son had inherited. Atiku became the most powerful vice-president in Nigerian history. In 2007, Obasanjo committed a supernatural faux-pas by sleeping with a woman he was not supposed to sleep with and mouths began to wag that his days were numbered. Atiku seized on that information and began to prepare for succession having been assured Obasanjo would not live. Well, Obasanjo "resurrected" to the bemusement of Atiku and the rest traducers, Obasanjo bared his fangs and went after his vice-president. Atiku had entrenched political platform and also deep pockets so he rebelled against his boss, rather than resign. Obasanjo instead went after Atiku's minions and tore them to shreds; the most pathetic and tragic casualty being the late Diepreye Solomon Alamieyeseigha, the governor of Bayelsa State.

Vice-President Osinbajo may decide to rebel like Atiku, but unfortunately he has no political platform and lack deep pocket. As one of Sani Abacha's children told Gen. Oladipo Diya when he slapped the then military vice-president during the phantom coup of 1998, "You Yoruba people, we invited you to come chop and now you want to become Oga." Any time a person is called to the table by the man holding the knife at the table, if you rebel, dinner is over, because in the minds of the local lords of the manor, government is a brokerage and huge criminal enterprise in Nigeria for self-enrichment. The landlords from up over there set the rules and any rebellious guy down here should either behave or be shut out. You get the point!

RELOCATION: The third option for Prof Osinbajo is to do what some of us have done to fulfill our destinies in a demon-infested and satanic world: deracination. The True Lord God Almighty created places before He created peoples and living things. As we tell precious souls directed to The Jesus Christ Solution Center here to attend some of our seminars, every human being created and has ever lived on this planet earth is geographically placed somewhere on earth to become what the Almighty God intended him or her to accomplish during the brief time/years we have on this temporary abode. That was why the Lord God Almighty instructed Abraham thus: "Go out from your land, your relatives and your father's house to the land I will show you" (Gen. 12:1). There are times He would confirm our current location as the arena of our destiny as He instructed Isaac thus: "The Lord appeared to him-referring to Isaac- and said: Do not go down to Egypt. Live in the land that I tell you about; stay in this land as a foreigner and I will be with you and bless you.." (Gen. 26:2-3). A brother called us few years ago from Iowa for prayer and as I was about to pray, the Holy Spirit instructed me to tell the brother his problem was not more prayer but obedience. He didn't understand so I asked the Holy Spirit again and He said; He wanted to use the brother in Africa and I should tell him to return to his native country and that is where his blessings are, but if he refused, the brother would be slaving like an elephant in America but living like rats. Joseph had to be sold into slavery in Egypt from where he moved from prison to palace. Moses had to be driven into exile and from the Land of Midian the Sovereign Lord God Almighty called him to liberate His people ( Moses 3:1-6). Some of the most spectacular miracles and revelations, including prophecies recorded in the Holy Bible took place while the men and women of God were in captivity or exile. The greatest book in the entire Holy Bible known as Revelation was revealed to Apostle John while he was in exile detained and imprisoned in the Greek Island of Patmos (Revelation 1:9). Even our Lord Jesus Christ had to be scurried into exile at a time in Egypt (Matthew 2:13-15). My current ministry was birthed in both Ghana and Republic of Benin and now operating in the United States, Hallelujah!

Over and over again, the True Lord God Almighty move us individually from one location to another as part of His Sovereign Plans for our lives. When people do not listen to the Voice of the Creator and instead choose to obey their own voice, they become self-destruct. It was not by accident that we moved from Chicago to this small but beautiful town of Cameron, TX. Where you are is far more important than whom you are and your bundle of talents, because you may be phenomenally talented, but are in the wrong place to put that talent to serve those the Almighty God has prepared for you to serve those talents with in the first place. Many precious souls are suffering and unable to make headways in life, because they are in the wrong place in the first place. It is called habitat. Vice-President Osinbajo may consider relocating to another nation after he has prayerfully sought the Face of the Lord God Almighty we both serve. He has a lot to offer the world than being cocooned to Nigeria and content with being a "local champion."He can contribute to intellectual works at either his alma mater in the UK or as a resident at Harvard. Hakeem Olajuwon would have remained an "Unrealized Dream" if he had remained in Nigeria. No one would have heard of Olufunmilayo Olopade, one of the world's renown hematologist, if she had remained in Nigeria and your sincerely would not be where I am today, if I had stayed put in Nigeria in the 1990s when the Holy Spirit instructed me to relocate to the United States.
