Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The White Witches Association of Nigeria, WWAN, has cautioned Vice President Yemi Osinbajo against running for the Presidency in 2023.<\/p>\n

WWAN said God did not program Osinbajo to become Nigeria\u2019s President in 2023; hence he would not win if he decided to contest.<\/p>\n

The spokesman of the witches and the former board member of the Edo State Traditional Council during the administration of former Governor Adams Oshiomhole, Dr Iboi Okhue, said God sent Osinbajo for a particular mission.<\/p>\n

Okhue disclosed that Osinbajo would conclude the mission God sent him on May 29, 2023.<\/p>\n

He urged the Vice President to return to the pulpit where God has a higher assignment for him than being the \u201cHead of State.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGod sent him to deliver a message to Nigerians. He has done that and he should go back to the church. God will use him in a bigger way other than being a head of state,\u201d Okhue told the Independent.<\/p>\n

There are indications that Osinbajo may run for the Presidency in 2023.<\/p>\n

However, his spokesman, Laolu Akande, dismissed such claims, stressing that his principal was focused on working with President Muhammadu Buhari.<\/p>\n
