'Trump will win', says professor who has predicted 30 years of presidential outcomes correctly (Video)

Professor Allan Lichtman, a distinguished professor of history at American University, Washington D.C, has correctly predicted the winner of every U.S presidential election since 1984 and has now said he is certain that Republican candidate Donald Trump will win the November 8 election and also explained how he came to the decision...



According to Lichtman, his prediction isn't based on horse-race polls, shifting demographics or his own political opinions but he uses a system of true/false statements he calls the "Keys to the White House" to determine who will win the election and it's always worked since 1984.

The keys to the White House, which are explained in depth in Lichtman’s book “Predicting the Next President” are:

1. Party Mandate: After the midterm elections, the incumbent party holds more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives than after the previous midterm elections.
2. Contest: There is no serious contest for the incumbent party nomination.

3. Incumbency: The incumbent party candidate is the sitting president.

4. Third party: There is no significant third party or independent campaign.
5. Short-term economy: The economy is not in recession during the election campaign.

6. Long-term economy: Real per capita economic growth during the term equals or exceeds mean growth during the previous two terms.

7. Policy change: The incumbent administration effects major changes in national policy.

8. Social unrest: There is no sustained social unrest during the term.

9. Scandal: The incumbent administration is untainted by major scandal.

10. Foreign/military failure: The incumbent administration suffers no major failure in foreign or military affairs.

11. Foreign/military success: The incumbent administration achieves a major success in foreign or military affairs.

12. Incumbent charisma: The incumbent party candidate is charismatic or a national hero.

13. Challenger charisma: The challenging party candidate is not charismatic or a national hero.



Thugs and land grabbers invade monarch’s house, kill his 29 year old son

Prince Jamiu Olipede (pictured), the 29 year old son of the Oba Musliu Olipede Olojoruwa, the Olorile of Itori Oke Egba Land at Federal Housing Authority, FHA, Alagbado area of Lagos, was killed by some thugs and land grabbers who invaded his home. PM news reports that deceased was killed over a landed property in the area where his house was built on.


Narrating how his son died, the monarch said that the thugs and land grabbers had on the day of the incident, invaded the house where he was living and ordered him to vacate the property as they have won a case in court against the FHA over the land. The monarch said his son was asked by the thugs to accompany them to the office of one Opeyemi and that he agreed.
“When they got to Opeyemi’s office, they met one Bayo Oladejo who has been terrorizing them in the estate and he told them that even though they won the case against FHA as they claimed, they did not show him any document to that effect and that they should tell him how much to pay for ratification. They said they would be back on Saturday but Bayo Oladejo insisted that they should park out or he will kill him and his son. I told them to tell me how much to pay for ratification since they are claiming to have won a case against the FHA who sold the land to us I did not argue with them. At about 11pm on Wednesday, Bayo Oladejo led Pastor Anjorin, Shola Oyeloye a.k.a Sholebo, Bature, Kosoko Saheed and other thugs to Jamiu Olipede’s house. He was called out and shot but the bullet did not penetrate so they used cutlass to machete him severally and killed him on the spot” he explained.
A victim of the suspected land grabbers, Salami Ayodele, who narrated his own experience, said the thugs led by one Pastor Anjorin came to his house and ordered him to park out with the excuse that they had won a case against the FHA without showing him any evidence and that he refused to park.
“Pastor Anjorin went ahead and remove the pumping machine in his compound and also disconnected the electricity supply to the house which made him to call the DPO of Alagbado Police station. The DPO ask them to come to his office and on getting there, Pastor Anjorin could not provide any court document which the DPO asked him to and bring”.
