Joshua gave a global warning concerning the volatile
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. “I am seeing an ‘arrow’ from there and it will
affect the world,” he declared, adding that, North Korea possessed weaponry
that most countries were unaware of.
“The war
we are fighting already in Syria is still there. We cannot afford another one
again,” he stated, calling for those involved to embrace peace.
Fast-forward
to Wednesday, 6 January, North Korea carried out a “successful” hydrogen bomb
test, a claim that — if true — massively raises the stakes over the hermit
state’s banned nuclear programme.
Although
international condemnation was swift with neighbours South Korea and Japan
decrying a gross violation of UN Security Council resolutions, while the White
House said it was still studying the precise nature of the apparent test and
vowed to “respond appropriately”, TB Joshua’s prediction appears to be one to
be taken rather seriously.
“The
republic’s first hydrogen bomb test has been successfully performed at 10:00 am
(0330 GMT),” North Korean state television announced.
“With the
perfect success of our historic H-bomb, we have joined the rank of advanced
nuclear states,” it said, adding that the test was of a miniaturised device.
A
hydrogen, or thermonuclear bomb, uses fusion in a chain reaction that results
in a far more powerful explosion than the fission blast generated by uranium or
plutonium alone.
Last
month, North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un suggested Pyongyang had already
developed a hydrogen bomb.
