GOD TOLD ME TO CONTEST IN 2015 - REV. CHRIS OKOTIE

Senior Pastor of the Household of God Church, Ikeja, Lagos, Rev. Chris
Okotie, has declared his intention to contest the 2015 presidential
election.
The pop star turned cleric said he is ready to give it another try,
despite that fact he had failed twice.
Okotie disclosed that he would contest for Presidency under the Fresh
Democratic Party, a platform he founded but which was de-registered by
the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, last year.
However, a court verdict in June, 2013 invalidated the action,
ordering the electoral umpire to maintain status quo.
"I will run in 2015, God willing.God spoke to me about my
participation in the political process, which was why I took the step
in the first place. He has not said anything contrary."
However, when asked, pastor refused to speak about the strategy saying,
"I don't want to talk about our strategy for now, we have learnt from
our past experience, we don't want to talk about it for now."
It would be recalled that Okotie first contested for President in 2003
under the Justice Party. He lost to former President, Olusegun
Obasanjo, candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
In 2007 he gave it another try, and was defeated by the late
President, Umaru Yar'Adua, also of the PDP.

  1. That's how he'll still lose. The day I vote for Okotie will surely be the day I'll meet my maker. He should stick to his ostentatious lifestyle and leave politics to the Politicians
