BREAKING: Primate Ayodele Reacts To The Throne Power Rivalry Between Ooni And Alaafin
Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has reacted to the supremacy war between two of Yoruba’s foremost traditional rulers, the Ooni of Ife and the Alaafin of Oyo.
In a message posted on his Facebook page on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, Ayodele recalled an earlier prophetic warning in which he cautioned the two monarchs against allowing rivalry or division. According to him, recent developments have begun to confirm that prophecy.
“Some time ago, I released a prophetic caution concerning the revered thrones of the Ooni of Ife and the Alaafin of Oyo. I said clearly: ‘They must not allow misunderstanding or rivalry, because it will weaken the strength of Yoruba land.’ Now, the manifestation of that warning has begun. But even at this moment, God’s message remains a call to peace,” he wrote.

Ayodele stressed that both monarchs occupy thrones that transcend personal interest, describing them as “symbols of Yoruba history, spiritual and cultural custodians, and fathers of the land.” He warned that a rift between the two would threaten the unity and pride of the Yoruba people, with far-reaching consequences for the younger generation.
“Thus says the Lord: ‘If unity is pursued, blessing will flow; if division is allowed, confusion will rise,’” Ayodele declared, before praying for grace and wisdom for both rulers to reconcile and lead as a united front.
