We have to bring good people into leadership and that’s why I said at this point we are not going to look for politicians in leadership; we are going to look for leaders in politics; and that’s why Initiative For a Better and Brighter Nigeria was born. And on that platform, we are mobilising credible men and women across the country to be able, for the first time, to rescue this country from the hands of wrong drivers. We want to make sure that, by the grace and mercies of God, they are pushed out of the system. I call it holy revolution. We are going through strategic leadership training to be able to see how we can arrest the present ugly situation and that is why we are doing our mobilisation all over the country to, first of all, seek God’s intervention because without God’s intervention, we can do nothing. It is in line with this that we just held the Jos rally at the Rwang Pam Township stadium where we prayed and we are going to replicate that all over the country. After that, we are going full-blast into the political arena to drive the process.

Minister, televangelist, philanthropist, prophet

Prophet Isa El-Buba, is a Nigerian charismatic prophet and philanthropist. He is the leader and founder of El-Buba Outreach Ministries International (EBOMI).

On the 1st of January, in the early sixties, Prophet Isa was born in the then Benue-Plateau General Hospital, Jos (now referred to as the Jos University Teaching Hospital, (JUTH). According to Mama Roseline, the delivery was very effortless as she and the new-born baby were discharge same day. In the meantime, Baba Sadiq Buba (though a Muslim) prophetically named his born son: "ISA"-in Arabic meaning "JESUS CHRIST". Barely two months later, the baby had severe running stomach and both mother and child were back to the same hospital. The baby was placed on intravenous drip but during that time the baby was often noticed kicking his legs in the air and raising his hands as if in praise. He was healed miraculously. The doctor in-charge discharged mother and child but remarked that the baby was a special child.

Baba Sadiq Buba was a disciplinarian to the core being a former soldier and World War II Vateran. The family lived in block 1, house A1 in the present Jos prisons quarters directly besides the high fenced prisons wall.

Both the place of Birth (Jos, Nigeria) and year of Isa's birth were divinely and prophetically scripted by God. Isa was to trigger a massive spiritual Renaissance in Jos, Plateau that made many to refer to him as "The Prophet on the Plateau".
Conversion

In 1982 he had an encounter with the Lord Jesus which led to his salvation after the Lord gave him a revelation of hell. In 1983 he received the baptism of the Holy Spirit and answered the call of God into the ministry.

After several revelations and encounter unknown to people around him, on the 23rd of March, 1982 marked a watershed in the life of Isa. He came across, and reluctantly watched a Christian film titled "Burning Hell". After the he was translated into heaven and became the game-changer for his life. Isa melted in his heart, and in tears, surrendered to the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. He became born again. Isa then began the journey to fulfill his divinely pre-destined purpose. He had never looked back since then.

Apostle Isa El-buba, after his dramatic conversion was taken to the desserts of Maiduguri and while on the run for his life from assassins. But as radical in his faith was in Islam so also did he become radical in his new-found faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. His life was placed on his head by several Islamic groups for assassination. So his natural abode became the desert and far jungle between Maiduguri Jere. In that lonely state he had several divine visitation from the Lord that assured him that he wasn't alone. Isa continually fasted and prayed while on the run for his life. This went on for a few years. On a particular day in the early eighties, he sneaked into a church in the Biu mountains area where he was hiding from assassinations. He has a strong desire to do anything possible to support this church. So he decided to farm even though he had never farm before now. He saw a man plowing a farmland and requested to plow the entire farmland for only N1500 (about$10) while on a marathon dry fast. The next day, the 4th day of the fast, he completed the job in the midst of a torrential rain at about 8pm having asked God for supernatural strength. He handed over the proceeds of that hard labour to the procurement of the badly-needed items for worship. The Pastor prayed for him.

His ministry is accompanied with the manifestations of the presence and power of God. He has a special burden to reach the Muslim world through publications so that they might understand the true God, and also to open the spiritual eyes of Christians much more on the activities of cults and demons and how to deal with them.

Prophet Isa El-Buba is the Founder and president of EL-Buba Outreach Ministries, Int., with headquarters in Jos, Plateau state, Nigeria. He is married to Pastor Choice Isa El-Buba and God has blessed them with four children

Born in Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State over 50 years ago into a Muslim family, Isa El Buba grew up a fundamentalist with extremist training in Nigeria and abroad.

All that changed in1983 when he was converted to Christianity. Now a prominent prophet, the Founder/President of Evangelical Bible Outreach Ministries International, Jos, Plateau State, 

he told the story of his journey in Christendom, how he escaped nine assassination attempts and foretold the future of Nigeria. 

When you talk about your fundamentalist background are you referring to that similar to Boko Haram?

We laid the foundation for it. If you read the book I wrote in 1994, you would note the areas where I had my training. You would discover that these are the strongholds of the Boko Haram sects today. I wrote the book in 1994 when Boko Haram was not in existence.

The world got to know about Boko Haram in 2009. What I am trying to say is that those places where I had my boxing, guerilla and Man o’ War training are Boko Haram bases today.

We were told that it was an ideology based on the extreme teaching in Islam by our scholars. My father is a devoted Muslim and is about 104 years old now. Then I believed in Prophet Mohammed (SAW) but I never believed him as the messiah. It was a culture and lifestyle until Jesus Christ appeared to me. I had a face-to-face encounter with Christ.

He showed me heaven and hell. He took me there. I saw the people who taught me extreme faith in hell and some of my relations. There was no compulsion when I submitted to him.

How did you meet your wife? Was she a Muslim and you got her converted?

She is from the southern part of Borno State, which is a Christian dominated area. She was one of my disciples and a member of my church. When I wanted to get married, God spoke to me about her and said: “This is your wife”. Actually, I never wanted to get married.

I wanted to live like Apostle Paul in the Bible by being single to do the work of the Lord because I know the danger of getting married. I got married about 20 years ago.

 Husband, Father, Preacher of holiness, Radical Believer, Prophet call to raise militant that will take the kingdom of the devil by surprise.

The bullet did not enter me. You want to treat me for what? The bullet did not enter me.

I was surrounded by gunmen on my way to Maiduguri, my home town. I was warned not to come but I stubbornly went because that is the place of my birth. I cannot be intimidated because I am not a coward. I was never raised to be a coward. I was raised as a militant but now a militant of Lord, Jesus Christ.

Do you still preach to the people in your state?

I do. I was excommunicated. I have survived nine assassination attempts but today the story is different. Both Muslims and Christians in my family are now one. We eat and share a bond together. Before now, Christ’s name could not be mentioned in my father’s house. Today, he has given his blessing for that to happen. 

You are putting up a 12-storey building in Jos. Is that part of the traffic you are talking about?
