General Evangelist of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Prophet Samuel Kayode Abiara has said the 2019 Presidential election postponement was a divine intervention.

He said the postponement was God’s way of averting ‘devilish plots’, hence Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu should not be blamed.

He further stated that the INEC chairman was not God and Nigerians should take the situation as an act of God.

Speaking during Sunday’s sermon, Prophet, Abiara, however called on Nigerians to come out and vote on Feb. 23.

He said; “Nigerians must thank God almighty for this situation because God owns Nigeria and God is aware of the cancellation of these elections.

“It so sad many people travelled from different parts of Nigeria to cast their votes in their various states and they will be disappointed by the postponement.

“But Nigerians must appreciate God for averting a series of devilish ploys concerning these elections by the postponement

“The chairman of INEC is not God, he needs to apologise to Nigerians. We Nigerians should also not blame him because it is God’s intervention.
