The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has released his prophecies for 2026, projecting economic relief for Nigeria and a possible reversal of the mass migration trend widely known as “japa”.
Pastor Adeboye delivered the prophecies during the church’s annual crossover service held at Redemption City on New Year’s Eve, where he shared messages of hope for Nigeria and cautious optimism for the global community.
Speaking on the national outlook, the cleric revealed the first part of a two-part prophecy, explaining that he would continue praying on the second part before deciding whether to make it public later in the week.
According to him, 2026 would experience a noticeable reduction in hunger across the country, along with renewed growth in small and medium-scale businesses.
“This year, there will be a reduction in hunger. Small and medium enterprises will begin to blossom,” Adeboye declared.
In a prophecy that has since generated widespread attention online, the RCCG leader also foretold what he described as a “reverse japa” situation, suggesting that Nigerians who had travelled abroad would begin returning home.
“He says something that I can only describe as reverse japa. Many who japa will come back home,” he said.
On global affairs, Pastor Adeboye stated that 2026 would likely be calmer than the previous year, particularly in relation to global conflict.
“On the international scene, he says the chance of a major war is less this year than last year,” he noted.
However, he warned that weather conditions would largely mirror those of 2025, with the possibility of a few major hurricanes occurring during the year.
Overall, the cleric described 2026 as a year marked by breakthroughs, predicting unprecedented success for individuals who remain steadfast in faith.
