Self-proclaimed preacher, Prophet Metuh, who claimed that the world would end on Thursday, April 25, has explained why the prophecy didn’t come to pass.
Metuh had caused a stir on social media with his revelation that the world would end on April 25, 2024, claiming God informed him during prayer.
He emphasized seeing the date clearly and hearing it mentioned by God twice.
But in a statement on his X account on Saturday, Metuh attributed the prophecy’s failure to the intervention of God after he and his followers completed a 21-day fasting and prayer period.

He tweeted: “The Lord showed us Mercy. After our 21-day fasting and prayer, he heard us and gave us more time to live. Prayer works #rapture2024 #rapture”.
However, his explanation has garnered mixed reactions from social media users, with some questioning the logic behind the initial prophecy and others criticizing him for causing unnecessary fear and confusion among people.
Nigerian went agog with tweets on the X handle in response to this development. Tweets like “You get luck say we no dey Old Testament again. In the meantime, enjoy your Elon’s money”, “No go find work, dey dia n’ezuzugharị”, “This is one thing I hate about Christians, always so called prophets trying to play fool with the maker himself”,“You should be arrested for false information and inducing fear into the heart of many Nigerian citizens. You are a disgrace in suit”, etc.
