More than three decades ago, Primate Ayodele started his ministry without walls; there were no buildings, cathedral, resources, and structure. All he had was a prophetic ministry, bamboo trees, a rented landed property and about thirty people who were members of his church, INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church.

Unsure about what the future held, Primate Ayodele began his prophetic ministry, accurately foretelling things to come, speaking the truth to power, showing gratitude to God, and sharing the little he had with people around him. He didn’t have a strong platform like other prophets at that time but he had a strong voice and gradually, he rose to prominence in the prophetic ministry.

With fulfilled prophecies like the death of Kudirat Abiola, the annulment of 1992 presidential election, death of former president Musa Yaradua, the exit of PDP on the presidential seat and other cornerstone prophecies, Primate Ayodele joined the list of the most sought after prophets by the high and mighty across several nations.

Three decades after his humble beginning, Primate Elijah Ayodele has become the most talked about prophet, the most sought after, the most accurate, the most accessible, the most generous prophet in Nigeria and other nations.

With a longevity of more than thirty years, Primate Ayodele appears to be the only prophet among those who started before him, who started the same time he started and who started after him, that is still very well rooted in his prophetic ministry and still expanding beyond the shores of Africa. Just as he used to prophesy back in the day, Primate Ayodele is still accurately prophesying events to come and so far, he has more than 10,000 fulfilled prophecies to his credit.

The recent assassination attempt on the former president of the United States of America, Donald Trump was foretold by Primate Ayodele in his 2024 prophecies which were released in December 2023. He had warned that he foresee an assassination attempt on a sitting president and a former president. Before then, he had also warned the USA to be careful and watchful against a political tension.

“World at large: The voice of the lord whispered to me that in 2024 we must pray against the assassination of a sitting President, a former president, a prime minister and a former Prime Minister whose assassination will be successful.’’

Similarly, in his annual prophecy book titled Warnings To The Nations (2023/2024 edition) which was released in July 2023, Primate Ayodele stated again that there will be political tension in the United States of America.

‘‘… The country must be careful because of unexpected shootings, racism, political tension even as there will be lots of changes in the political arena…They should pray against political crisis and protest.’’

The ongoing uprising against the president of Kenya, William Ruto was also part of his prophecies. In his prophecies for the new year, Primate Ayodele mentioned that there will be mounting pressure or an uprising against a sitting president that can lead to his removal.

‘’Let us pray against coup in Africa or mounting pressure or an uprising that can lead to the removal of a sitting President.’’

In another prophecy which was published by notable newspapers including Kenyans.co.ke, Primate Ayodele mentioned that the efforts of Ruto to make Kenya better will not be appreciated and that oppositions would come strongly against him.

These were his words:

‘’Kenya: The country should pray not to see an assassination or removal of a governor. The country’s economic policy will be alarming. Ruto will come up with different policies to see that Kenya gets better but he won’t be appreciated. Oppositions will come out strongly against him. All the efforts of Ruto to make Kenya better will be faced with challenges. The president needs to look after his health. The foreign exchange will not be too good, and Kenya must change its economic policies. I see the country getting it wrong in diplomatic policies. The president must pray not to lose any minister.’’

In the United Kingdom, the Ex-Prime minister, Rishi Sunak’s party lost the recently concluded election and for the first time in many years, another party got into power, sacking Sunak as Prime Minister.

In a prophecy which was captured in a video, Primate Ayodele emphatically said that Rishi Sunak’s time was up and that his party will not get enough seats to remain in power after the UK general election. He made it known that they will be disappointed basically because of the policies of the Prime Minister.

These were his words:

‘’Rishi’s time is up because his party will not make any headway. In the coming election, his party will face disappointment and will not get enough seats. Rishi’s policies will affect his party’s chances in the election, they will not have any headway in the coming election.’’

At the recently concluded elections in Rwanda, Primate Ayodele’s prophecy has been fulfilled following the landslide victory of the incumbent. The prophet had said that President Paul Kegame would do everything to retain his seat but warned him of impending dangers. The election victory has come to pass.

“In Rwanda the incumbent is going to do everything to see that he retains the seat again as revealed by the spirit God. The country will face some tension moments. There will be an election. Opposition can only make headway if they form coalition, but the ruling party can still retain the seat. The citizens must rebuke attacks and security threats. There will be rumour of coup attempt. The government will do everything possible for the country to succeed as unexpected crisis, weather condition will be an issue in the country. The ecological issues as a result of floods that will rampage the country. I foresee that the government will increase the salaries and wages of workers.”

In his home country Nigeria, there is nothing happening in the country president that Primate Ayodele didn’t foretell some years ago. Before the current administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu took over, Primate Ayodele warned Nigerians against voting for another APC government after Muhammadu Buhari. He warned that there will be so much hardship and Nigerians will find it difficult to survive.

“I’m not saying anyone should not insult me; I am not scared of any human being. If Nigeria votes APC in 2023, things will be tougher. We will see human beings and want to eat them like food. This is how God told me. I am not saying you should not criticise me or say anything against me, even as an APC member; I warned you in 2015 too. If you want to vote for lies in 2023, if you vote for the party that has a broom as their symbol, I pity churches. I am not against anybody, and I don’t vote. Nigeria will be tough. If you vote and Tinubu enters, there will be serious problems.”

“If Nigerians vote for APC in 2023, the country will sink, we will swim in poverty, and the economy will be in shambles. If the APC wins, Nigeria will suffer extraordinarily. We have not yet seen hardship; if APC wins, the real hardship will come. The economy will be sick.”

In 2022 before Buhari’s tenure ended, He went further to explain how much commodities would cost; he warned that the price of a bag of rice would skyrocket and that Nigerians will find it difficult to afford essential commodities as little as pure water. He said then that a sachet of pure water will cost N50, diesel will sell for N1500, Dollar will increase to N1500, etc.

“Our economy is in serious shambles; it will get to a point where the police and Army will go on strike because of payment. There will be inflation in the country, and pure water will sell for N50, local rice will sell for N30,000, five litres of groundnut oil will sell for N5,000, there will be no N200 bread, Congo of garri will sell for N1500, with N1,000 you won’t be able to feed yourself, cement will sell between N5,500-N6,000, minerals will sell for N200, Petrol is still going to N250/Litre.’’

Before the 2023 presidential election, he predicted further difficult times and mentioned how much commodities would cost.

“If Nigeria gets the right president, the dollar will become N350, petrol will return to N140, Boko Haram will end.

“Terrorism and sanitary will be a thing of the past if Nigeria gets the right president. The question now is how Nigeria would get the right president. But if we get the wrong person, fuel will rise to N1,500 per litre, dollars will rise to N1,500; and insecurity will be alarming.”

Within one year of President Tinubu’s presidency, many of the things Primate Ayodele said have come to pass and some of these prices have even exceeded what the prophet actually said, underscoring the credibility of his prophecy.

Furthermore, there is currently a crisis with the traditional institution in Nigeria especially in Kano state. The Emir, Ado Bayero was removed and replaced with a former emir, Sanusi Lamido who was also dethroned some years back. Meanwhile, even before Sanusi was removed as CBN governor, Primate Ayodele had said that he foresees him becoming Emir someday.

‘’Lamido Sanusi will face big troubles trying to get a second term as CBN governor but I forsee him becoming an Emir but even at that, he will face challenges’’ (Global excellence,2012)

The prophecy about Sanusi becoming Emir came to pass and some years later, it was followed by the other part of the prophecy that talked about him facing challenges. Sanusi was dethroned and replaced by Ado Bayero but for the word of God to come to pass, He was reinstated in 2024.

There are several notable prophecies of Primate Ayodele that have confirmed him to be God’s mouthpiece and placed him in the position of a national treasure and a global prophetic icon.
