  • Primate Elijah Ayodele criticized Nigeria's First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, for her response to the abduction of schoolchildren.
  • Ayodele warned that the First Lady's actions, including donating cars to APC women leaders, could cause President Tinubu to lose the election.
  • The cleric also issued prophecies regarding President Tinubu's potential anger with service chiefs and international concerns about Nigeria's security system.

Primate Elijah Ayodele, leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has strongly criticized Nigeria's First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, accusing her of a lack of response to the abduction of schoolchildren in Oyo State. Ayodele specifically pointed to the First Lady's recent donation of cars to women leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in five opposition-controlled states as a misplaced priority.

I donโ€™t know why Mummy Tinubu is doing this. You gathered women. You didnโ€™t do what Jonathanโ€™s wife did. Why canโ€™t you pretend to? You didnโ€™t campaign for these children to be brought back. Instead, you are only talking about vehicles for states.

โ€” Primate Elijah AyodeleCriticizing the First Lady's priorities in response to the abduction of schoolchildren.

During a series of prophecies, Ayodele warned that Mrs. Tinubu's actions could jeopardize President Tinubu's chances in the upcoming election. "Mama Tinubu, you will make Tinubu lose. You will lose this election if you are not careful, because you donโ€™t care for these children," the cleric stated in a video posted on Facebook. He expressed disappointment that the First Lady focused on vehicles for states rather than campaigning for the children's return, suggesting Nigerians are unhappy with this approach.

Ayodele also delivered other prophecies concerning President Tinubu. He warned the president about the international community's intention to plant listening devices on his phone. Furthermore, he indicated that some high-profile figures within the security community are unhappy with the newly established Homeland Security office, appointed by the president. Ayodele suggested that President Tinubu is displeased with his service chiefs and may replace them soon, citing international dissatisfaction with Nigeria's security system as a contributing factor.

Mama Tinubu, you will make Tinubu lose. You will lose this election if you are not careful, because you donโ€™t care for these children. Be careful. Nigerians are not happy, and you are campaigning.

โ€” Primate Elijah AyodeleWarning the First Lady that her actions could cost President Tinubu the election.

Primate Ayodele is known for his often bold and controversial prophecies concerning political and public figures in Nigeria and globally. His latest pronouncements add a layer of spiritual and political commentary to the ongoing national security challenges and electoral considerations in Nigeria.

He may change them anytime. He will soon give them the shock of their lives. The service chiefs will soon go. Tinubu will pack them away because the international community is not happy with Nigeria's security system.

โ€” Primate Elijah AyodeleProphesying potential changes among President Tinubu's service chiefs due to international dissatisfaction.
