In a post shared on his official Facebook page on June 18, 2026, the Founder and Leader of Prophetic Hill Chapel claimed that Bafana Bafana would be the very first country to exit the tournament.
"South Africa will be the first country to exit the tournament.... I pray, win for Chec*** PNG," he emphatically wrote.
Unfortunately, on June 24, 2026, South Africa secured a historic 1-0 victory over South Korea at the Monterrey Stadium in Mexico.
The crucial win earned them four points in Group A, sealing their qualification for the Round of 32 knockout phase for the first time in the country's history.
Following Bafana Bafana's qualification, critics went after Nigel Gaisie, claiming his prophecy had collapsed.

"Avail yourself to meet a true Prophet of God; then you will appreciate the role and the impact of true prophetism. (God is still speaking)...Leave the prophets alone to do their work," he added.
Nigel Geisie further encouraged his fellow pastors not to be discouraged by criticism, hatred, or public scrutiny, claiming the prophetic calling comes with intense opposition.
He advised ministers to remain courageous, follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and focus on revealing Jesus Christ rather than pleasing public opinion.
"To you, the prophet, know that the prophetic comes with heavy attacks and hate, but be courageous, let the holy spirit lead you always, don't be intimidated by their hate, criticism, and human interest. Reveal Jesus and keep speaking the mind of Jesus Christ only."
"Not all are called unto you, not all will understand spiritual works and protocols. Those who are called to you will take heed of your prophetic inspirations!!... Ghana, a nation that destroys its prophets and calls others who are not prophets...prophets !!!...Have a good week and get close to the prophetic; you will appreciate the prophets and Prophetism very much. God bless every God-sent Prophet, Amen. PNG."
