WARNING TO ADELABU: Ignore Primate Ayodele’s Prophecy And Forget About Becoming Next Oyo Governor!
In the last one week or so, there has been an exchange of words between the camps of one of Nigeria’s prominent prophets, Primate Ayodele Elijah, the founder of INRI Evangelical Spiritual church and the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu. And while it must be noted that the media handlers of the very popular clergy have been most refined and civil with their response, the Adelabu camp, on the hand, have lacked tact and professionalism in their response. They have resorted to name calling and a futile attempt to bring Primate Ayodele’s name to disrepute.
Typical of the renowned Primate, he has remained silent and unmoved by all the rhetoric and mudslinging of the Adelabu camp against his person. He is way too busy with his philanthropic and ministerial works to pay attention to a group of people who have lost all sense of decorum all in their bid to satisfy the whims and caprices of their sponsor. Of course, anyone who knows Primate Ayodele closely will tell you he is possibly the most vocal man of God in the land right now. For a man who constantly speaks truth to power and repeatedly calls out the government and elected public office holders and holds them accountable, everyone knows the last thing you could try with Primate Ayodele is to intimidate him. He literally enjoys watching people in power attempt to intimidate him because he is confident they will be humbled in the end.
When Primate Ayodele decides to take on the high and mighty, he does so with his full chest and stands by the truth without giving a hoot whose ox is gored. But when he considers your ranting as highly inconsequential, he dismisses you and moves on as though you do not even exist. Ask SatGuru maharaji, when he senselessly took on Primate Ayodele, using his cronies in the media. The Primate never gave him the honor of a minute attention! He totally ignored the man and treated his mindless media attacks as nothing but the ranting of an ant. Today, Guru Maharaji gone tired of his own ranting, his tongue is weak, the house is quiet again. I suspect the Primate plans to give the Honourable Minister of Power same silent treatment.
For the benefit of those who missed out on the genesis of the matter, permit us to do a recap for you. A couple of weeks ago, Primate Ayodele had released a prophecy stating categorically that the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, who also aspires to contest in the coming Oyo state gubernatorial election, will not win the election. He warned that the people of Oke ogun will challenge Ibadan’s dominance in the coming election and that Adelabu stands no chance of becoming the next governor of Oyo state, and except of course, if he seeks the face of God. Primate also affirmed that Teslim Folarin stands a better chance if only he can strategise better and finish as strongly as he often starts his campaigns. And from the moment the prophecy got into the public space, the Adelabu camp went on rampage. They threw all sorts of tirades at Primate but the globally revered man of God who enjoys very cordial relationship with many African leaders paid no attention to them, focussing only on more significant matters on his table.
Personally, I am surprised that the Honourable Minister and his group of supporters have taken the matter the way they did. The minister needs to climb down from his high horse and try to see how he can even attempt to salvage the situation and turn that prophecy around. Candidly, I will advice that he listens to what the Prophet of God has said or be prepared to get hugely disappointed in the end. The Honourable Minister, to the best of my knowledge is a Muslim, a devout one for that matter, and here you are, taking on a man of God who merely issued a warning to you regarding your governorship ambition? Rather than go confrontational, you should listen to the warning, seek counsel and call on God’s intervention, not engage the man in a war of words.
And, just as the Minister himself knows, we are talking about a Primate Ayodele who has consistently shown incredible accuracies in his prophecies. He has done this time and time again, so why would you dismiss the warnings of a man like that? The intention behind this article is not necessarily to persuade you to listen to Primate Ayodele, it is your choice to ultimately decide what you want. Everything depends largely on how badly you want to become the next governor of Oyo state. But, in the end, I think time will tell.
Perhaps the Minister considers himself as above God, and one who knows better, so he does not need directives of any form from anyone. Perhaps that is the reason why he replied the man of God. And since he has taken it upon himself to not only reply the man of God but also ordered his camp to publicly critisise the man’s prophecy, then I take it that he has very little respect for God and for his prophets.
t is necessary to note that this will be the third gubernatorial attempt of Adebayo Adelabu in his quest to become the Executive governor of Oyo state. “Honourable Minister, you failed in your first attempt to become governor of Oyo state, you failed in your second attempt as well, and from the look of things, you will fail again if you continue with this show of contempt for the words emanating from the man of God. If you’re indeed ready to win the election, and you’re serious about becoming the next governor, then you should not have replied the Primate.” Rather than focus on improving the epileptic power situation in the country, the minister is using tax payers’ money to fund the media campaign against Primate Ayodele, when most parts of the country are perpetually plunged into darkness every single day.”
Personally, I do not think that being a Muslim necessarily means you should not show respect to a man of God. That you are the Minister of Power and close to the President is only by the grace of God, not necessarily because you’re better than the rest. You need to eschew arrogance and exude humility, this, more than brilliance, sometimes, can take a man far beyond his wildest dreams. That you know the President does not always translate to mean victory is assured, it is God that gives victory and makes a man Governor or President. What the man of God has said about the next Oyo governorship election is the position of God on the issue. Ask Andy Uba what happened after Primate Ayodele issued same kind of warning when he also wanted to become governor. Ask Segun Oni of Ekiti state and they will tell you about Primate Ayodele and his prophecies.
It will also be recalled that before the 2023 presidential election, Igbos thought Obi would win the election, it is on record that in January 2023, Primate Ayodele spoke to a section of the media and warned that both Atiku and Obi were not going to win the election because they lacked focus and direction in their approach. Even as he warned Nigerians not to vote for Tinubu as his regime would bring hardship to the nation, he still called the attention of Atiku and Peter Obi to the message God had for them and made it clear they were not doing enough to win the election. And today, the rest is history. If the Honourable Minister chooses to throw away the warning of Primate Ayodele, then he has simply shot himself in the foot and will be doing his gubernatorial ambition a big harm. A word, they say, is enough for the wise.

How Primate Ayodele Foretold Deadly Attack On Niger Republic Airport In Prophecy Book
An attack by armed men on an airport in Niger’s capital has killed 11 soldiers and two civilians, authorities said, five months after a major assault.Twenty-two armed attackers were also killed in the assault, and about 20 suspects were apprehended, the Ministry of Defence added in a news statement read out on national television on Thursday.Soldiers in Niamey fought suspected rebels around the Diori Hamani International Airport and a military airbase on Thursday, sources told Al Jazeera earlier in the day.This unfortunate incident is in fulfilment of the prophecy of popular Nigerian prophet, Primate Elijah Ayodele, which he shared in his prophecy book released in 2025.The prophet, known for his frequent prophecies about nations, warned the leadership of the Niger Republic to be careful against major attacks. He warned them that rebels will continue to attack the nation, but there will be major ones which the nation will struggle to come out of.On page 65 of the prophecy book, the man of God warned the government of the day to be careful of unpleasant things.These were his words:“NIGER: I foresee the country will be tensed up and must be careful because they will face attacks and counterattacks. They will suffer economic damages. They will enter into bilateral agreements that will be unfavourable. The country must be careful of explosions and fire outbreaks. They must be careful because a lot of things will change in the country that will not be pleasing to the people. There will be a plan to remove the government of the day either through revolution or coup or protest or uprising. These are the revelations from the Lord.”Apart from this, the prophet mentioned it in another prophecy book titled Warnings to the Nations (2025/2026) edition that the Niger Republic will be attacked.These were his words:“NIGER: The spirit of God says the country will have long term political crisis. I foresee the political stability of the country will be shaking. The country will face major crisis and must be careful not to be attacked. The country will operate under a new political dimension and dispensation. The country must be careful of serial killings. There will be new developments in the country. The country will face lots of crisis. The country will take some steps that will not give the country the needed impetus to grow. I foresee the resources will be hijacked by foreign exploiters. I foresee the economic growth will be trouble shooting. There will be gang up against the administration of the country. The country must be watchful against attacks.”Likewise, in his new year prophecy, he made it known that the country will continue to suffer from major attacks.“……Rebels will be attacking the government forces at all times…however, there is going to be a serious attack in the country as the country will continue to struggle to excel so says the Lord”.These prophecies have been fulfilled with the attacks on the Niger Republic, especially the recent one.

Dear President Tinubu, Primate Ayodele Can Help You Solve Insecurity
By Damas Kalu, Abia
Beyond every sentiment, I think that if the current Nigerian government is serious about solving insecurity problems, the role Primate Ayodele can play should never be underestimated.Yes, Primate Ayodele doesn’t have guns or grenades; he doesn’t have helicopters and armoured tanks, but the divine security intelligence that man possesses has never been seen before.He may not be able to follow the military operatives to the war front, but his approach to solving insecurity crises goes beyond the battle at the war front; there wouldn’t be any need for battle if the government is ready to listen to Primate Ayodele’s intelligence.Primate Ayodele doesn’t have any certificate in security intelligence, nor is he in any intelligence agency, but what he possesses cannot be acquired with certificates or affiliations; God has blessed him with it so much that he knows the next place terrorists would strike; it’s that concise!One distinct thing about this divine intelligence Primate Ayodele possesses is that he shares it before time, sometimes months, weeks, or days, before any act of insecurity occurs to give the Nigerian security operatives ample time to deal with it, but they never take it seriously. Instead of being proactive, they become reactive when the deed has already been done.I could remember some months before the Nigerian army announced that there was a coup attempt against President Tinubu that was thwarted. The prophet had warned months earlier that some powerful people were planning to remove the president from power; he specifically mentioned that some army officials would be involved.These were his words:“There will be an attempt to unseat Tinubu unconstitutionally; the NSA, DSS, and Chief of Army Staff must be careful about this. Some gangs are planning between November and January to unseat him.”“ Even the Navy, Air Force will be part of it, including the Nigerian Army. President Tinubu must be ready for anything and fortify himself. He needs to change his security strategy because these personalities will be unbelievable names.” ( https://tribuneonlineng.com/some-powerful-nigerians-plotting-to-remove-tinubu-through-coup-primate-ayodele/)A few months after this release, the Nigerian army confirmed there was a serious plan that was foiled at the last minute, and today, we have some politicians and soldiers in detention for the act.The several kidnappings that we see happening today across the country had been foretold by Primate Ayodele as far back as December 2024 during a press conference. The prophet had mentioned that kidnapping will take a new dimension in Nigeria, alerting the security operatives to curb it.These were his words:“Kidnap: I foresee that a Commissioner and an aide in a Governor’s convoy will be kidnapped. The spirit of God says kidnapping will take another dimension. Let us pray for all governors in Nigeria that none of them will be bedridden.’’From that moment till today, the level of kidnap attacks has never been seen before in the country. It used to be in the north alone, but today, even the south is seriously feeling the heat.The president must also remember that early in 2025, Primate Ayodele mentioned six things that will be used against his government.These were his words:“They want to use six things to destroy Tinubu’s Gov: Security, Economy, Ethnicity, Energy, Creation of states, Employment, and Youth development.“….there is no doubt that every one of these things is being used to measure the effectiveness of the current government.On the school kidnapping happening across the country, President Tinubu must know that Primate Ayodele has been creating awareness about this since March 2024. He revealed that a new syndicate is coming that would be kidnapping students and pupils from schools. He mentioned that it won’t be just in the north, but across the country.These were his words:“It is no longer Boko Haram or any existing group that is behind these kidnappings; it is a new group, and they will soon name it. It’s a new terrorism syndicate that must be defeated. We should commit our military in prayers to defeat terrorism; we must not allow terrorists to ruin this government.’These terrorists want to scare people from going to school; they want to destroy the future of this country, but Tinubu shouldn’t agree. He should cooperate with the security outfits to defeat terrorism.‘’If the government doesn’t act on this, they are ready to move to other states. The government must wake up and curb this now; if not, school children will be kidnapped in other states apart from the north.’’https://dailypost.ng/2024/03/12/new-terrorism-syndicate-behind-sokoto-kaduna-school-kidnaps-primate-ayodele-warns-tinubu/This is 2026, two years after this prophetic revelation, and now, we are dealing with the kidnapping of about 39 students in Oyo State; they have been in captivity for almost one month now, yet no tangible updates have been given. Schools have also been shut across the state as a result; has this not come to pass? It has absolutely been fulfilled.Now, imagine the government had listened to all these warnings and blocked every loophole; Nigeria would have become the most peaceful country in Africa, but the opposite is what the country is experiencing.There are records to prove the credibility of Primate Ayodele’s divine intelligence; we don’t have to be reactive all the time; it costs the nation more when insecurity is approached in that way. We can be proactive, and so far, only Primate Ayodele proves to have such intelligence that can give this kind of approach.Personally, I would suggest the president humble himself and reach out to the man of God for solutions. Many Nigeria be great again. Amen.

Primate Ayodele Fires Back at Liberia’s President Boakai Over Complaint Letter to FG, Predicts Second-Term Defeat
Primate Ayodele Responds To Liberia’s President, Joseph Boakai Over Letter To FG
Founder and Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has reacted to reports that the Liberian government raised concerns with Nigerian authorities over his prophecies concerning Liberia and its leadership.
The cleric insisted that Liberian President Joseph Nyuma Boakai should focus on addressing the challenges facing his country rather than criticising prophetic messages. He also declared that the President would not secure a second term in office.
Primate Ayodele’s response followed reports that the Government of Liberia allegedly sent a letter to the Nigerian government expressing dissatisfaction with what it described as recurring negative prophecies about President Boakai, his administration, and the Liberian people.
According to the reported complaint, the prophecies, circulated through publications and videos, allegedly fuel anti-Nigerian sentiments among some Liberians and could threaten peace and stability in the country.
The Liberian government also reportedly accused the cleric of involving himself in the country’s political affairs during the 2023 presidential election by publicly supporting one of the candidates.
While acknowledging Nigeria’s commitment to freedom of expression and religious liberty, Liberia reportedly urged Nigerian authorities to exercise caution regarding statements made about friendly nations and to take appropriate action where necessary.
However, reports indicated that Nigeria’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs distanced itself from the matter. The ministry reportedly maintained that the issue falls outside its constitutional and diplomatic responsibilities.
The ministry also emphasised that the Nigerian government does not censor citizens’ views provided such expressions do not violate the law.
Furthermore, it reportedly described the complaint as a private matter and reaffirmed Nigeria’s commitment to its longstanding bilateral relationship with Liberia.
Reacting to the development, Ayodele defended his prophetic record and recalled his prediction of the defeat of former Liberian President George Weah during the 2023 election.
“I warned George Weah and told him that if the election went into a second round, he would lose. That prophecy came to pass,” he said.
The cleric argued that his prophecies are not politically motivated. Instead, he described them as divine messages intended to guide leaders and nations.
Ayodele also questioned President Boakai’s decision to focus attention on his prophecies rather than on governance and national development.
“You are talking when your country has serious issues to deal with. Instead of concentrating on Liberia’s problems, you are analysing my prophecies,” he stated.
Despite the controversy, the cleric maintained that he would continue to speak on developments concerning Liberia whenever he receives divine revealations from the throne of God.
He also issued a fresh prediction regarding President Boakai’s political future.
“Don’t worry yourself about a second term because you have already lost it,” Ayodele declared.
The cleric reiterated that his prophecies serve as warnings and guidance. According to him, leaders who pay attention to divine counsel often avoid looming challenges, while those who ignore such warnings risk facing the consequences.
