• Shettima, Atiku, Obi, Akpabio, Ribadu, Soludo, Ambode, Uzodimma’s wife too
• Calls for urgent, fervent prayers
By Olakunle Olafioye
The leader of Inri Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Babatunde Elijah Ayodele, has called on the Federal Government to beef up security in the North and other parts of the country to avoid major security breaches. He also called for fervent prayers to avert imminent calamities.



Ayodele, who gave the advice in an interview with Sunday Sun, said that criminal elements in the county are plotting to carry major attacks in some parts of the North and other states.
His words: “Let us pray against a major security crisis in the North. I foresee bombing, shooting and a serious security crisis in the North especially in Kano. The government must beef up security in the North to avoid being taken unawares. Also security should be beefed up around the national mosque. There is a plot by agents of instability to attack the national mosque. We must pray against these.
“Let us pray against landslide in Benue, Abuja and Plateau.
“The security agencies must be watchful in Benue and Plateau states because bandits are still planning a large scale attack in both states.
“Herdsmen attack is also imminent in the Southwest states of Ogun and Lagos. The governments of both states should be vigilant and they must beef up security architectures in the states.”
Speaking on the hardship in the country, the man of God urged Nigerians to exercise more patience with the current administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying respite “is on the horizon for the masses” as the country waddles through the current economic challenge.
Primate Ayodele, however, warned Nigerians not to be carried away by the promises made by politicians especially those in opposition who parade themselves as messiahs and alternative to the incumbent.
Curiously, Ayodele’s latest revelation came as a major U-turn to his pre-2023 general election prophecy when he warned Nigerians against voting the then All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate whose victory he foretold would be a misadventure and disastrous plunge into a very deep water.
“If Nigerians vote for Tinubu in the 2023 presidential election, he will lead Nigerians into ‘Ibu’, meaning a large body of water,” he had foretold before the presidential polls.
The popular Nigerian cleric warned Nigerians not to be delusional about the ongoing alignments among politicians in the opposition, saying, “Atiku, Obi, El-Rufai, Bala, Seyi Makinde will make things more difficult for Nigerians, even worse than what Nigerians are going through under Tinubu now.
“Voting for any of these politicians in the next election will be more disastrous. Nigerians must never contemplate the choice of any of these politicians. Rather they should stick with Tinubu. Tinubu’ s second term will be better than his first term. The same Tinubu that has taken Nigeria to where it is now will also bring the nation out of its current situation in his second term. Nigerians should exercise patience.”
He said as a prophet, he is obliged to declare the revelation given to him.
“I am saying it as it was revealed to me. I don’t have anything to do with Tinubu or his foot soldiers. Some people may view this as a contradiction to my earlier prophecy, but they cannot fault the efficacy and the fulfillment of these prophecies. Everything I foretold has turned out exactly the way I said it.
“When I predicted the coup against Ibrahim Traore of Burkina Faso, it was deemed a fake prophecy by some people, but it happened exactly the way I said it. I also foretold the election of the Gabonese President, which many people also deemed to be fake. I foretold that if he would remove his uniform and contest as a civilian that he would win and it happened just as I said.
“I warned Ghanaians against electing Mahama, but I was not taken seriously. You can see the hardship in Ghana after his election. Just like in Ghana, I also warned the people of Liberia against voting for Joseph Boaki so that the progress made by the immediate past administration would not be derailed, but everyone can see what is going on in that country now. These are indications that Nigerians must not joke with these prophecies,” he pointed out.
Ayodele predicted Malam Nuhu Ribadu, National Security Adviser, as the likely successor of President Tinubu.
“After Tinubu, Nuhu Ribadu will take over. Majority of these PDP governors are not going to be with their presidential candidate. APC will lose Anambra State because the people will still vote for (Prof Chukwuma) Soludo.
“The Senate President (Godswill Akpabio) must pray against another scandal.
“Ambode (Akinwunmi) will re-launch his political career if he prays very well,” he predicted.
On security, Primate Ayodele admonished the president to overhaul the security around himself, warning that his security has been compromised. He also called on the security authorities in the country to be on the alert, saying that “American submarines are on Nigeria’s water. What they are doing there I cannot say. Nigeria must be on the alert because their presence is not in Nigeria’s interest. The President should be very careful about Donald Trump’s government. Nigeria’s security agencies should carry out discreet investigations on this and be watchful.
“Shettima must tread softly to avoid being removed as Tinubu’s Vice President in his second term.
“The wife of the Imo State governor should be careful and vigilant so that she doesn’t fall victim to kidnapping.
“I foresee the removal of the Inspector General of Police.”
