Primate Ayodele Releases Prophecies On Anambra, Ekiti, Osun Governorship Elections
The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has released fresh prophecies concerning the governorship elections coming up in Anambra, Ekiti and Osun states.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, the prophet revealed the fate of political parties participating in the election.
For Anambra, he stated that it is only God that can help the APC candidate win because the only person who could have unseated Charles Soludo as governor is Ifeanyi Ubah, who is now late.
The prophet stated that the only way Ifeanyi Ubah can be defeated is if the opponents come together against him; otherwise, he will return to office for his second term in office.
However, he warned Soludo to be careful and watch against attempts to rig him out of the election through the back door.
“Anambra: Only God can help the APC candidate, maybe if he seeks the face of God, but without that, give it to Soludo. It is only God who can remove Soludo. The opponents should have formed a coalition, but because they are self-centred, they will lose.
“If Ifeanyi Ubah were alive, he would have been the one to unseat Soludo, but the current APC candidate doesn’t know what to do to win. Soludo can be defeated if the candidates can take a strong step, but they can’t. Soludo will return whether anyone likes it or not.
“The Labour party candidate doesn’t know how to go about it, and the PDP candidate will not make any impact. I would advise all of them to come together and give it to Soludo. The man who can do it better is no longer alive. However, they will rock Soludo’s government with insecurity; he should brace up and must not sleep otherwise, they can rig him.”
In Ekiti, the prophet states that Oyebanji will be favoured to return to power, but he must watch his back against internal crisis, court issues, and evil elements in his government. The prophet noted that he needs to put things in order for his victory to be certain.
“Ekiti: There are a lot of people who hate the Ekiti governor, but the point is Oyebanji is favoured to return for his second term. However, he must watch his back because there are evil elements who want him to lose.
“The crisis in Ekiti has not started yet, but God will help him to survive. They will also use a court matter against him after the election. He must not sleep; he must do more security checks to know who to put into position, though they are looking at fighting him from the federal level, he must wake up. He should put so many things in order for his victory to be certain.”
In Osun, Primate Ayodele warned Governor Adeleke to be ready for fighting because the opposition will not take it easy with him. He advised him to spread his political tentacles to all local governments and focus more on the grassroots.
The prophet commended the governor for the works he has done, while revealing that opposition is ready to blackmail him and sponsor a tribal crisis to destabilise his government. He advised the governor to be ready for anything towards, during and after the election.
“Osun: APC will fight Adeleke big time and try everything to destabilise him. He needs to wake up and restrategize, and spread his political tentacles to all the local governments. He needs more grassroots support from the kings, youths, farmers, and artisans.
“The APC is adamant to set his camp ablaze. They are ready to blackmail him and are ready for negative propaganda. He must be very careful with his policies, and they want to use his assembly to fight him. He has worked and done better than his predecessors, but the APC is ready to rig him out by any means necessary. He needs to work on his security and avoid border crisis and tribal crisis in Osun because the opposition wants to sponsor a crisis in Osun.”
The Senate has asked President Bola Tinubu to immediately remove the Registrar General of the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), Hussaini Ishaq Magaji (SAN), from his office.
As reported by Nigerian Tribune, the Senate committee on finance, while passing a resolution in Abuja on Thursday, February 26, accused Magaji of failing to honour the upper legislative chamber’s invitations to account for the finances of his agency.
Senator Sani Musa, the chairman of the committee, said:
“He (Magaji) refused on so many occasions to honour our invitation to appear before this committee.
“We have issues with the reconciliation of the revenue of CAC.
“Each time we invite him, he gives us excuses.
” Magaji was appointed to this position by President Tinubu on October 13, 2023.
As the registrar-general of the CAC, Magaji is expected to work for the development and regulation of corporate affairs in Nigeria.
Meanwhile, President Tinubu on Wednesday night, February 25, formally urged the Senate to begin the process of amending the 1999 constitution to provide for the establishment of state police, declaring that Nigeria must urgently restructure its security architecture to confront terrorism, banditry and insurgency.
Speaking at an interfaith breaking of fast with the leadership and members of the Senate at the State House, Abuja, the president stated that the time had come for lawmakers to “start thinking” about embedding state policing in the constitution to enable governments at subnational levels better secure their territories.
The Nation quoted President Tinubu as saying:
“Nigeria is extremely challenged, we are facing terrorism, banditry, insurgency, but you never failed to make a right response to these calls.
“What I will ask for tonight is for you to start thinking how best to amend the Constitution to incorporate the state police for us to secure our country, take over our forests from marauders, free our children from fear.”
Leaders of the African Democratic Congress and the New Nigeria Peoples Party have called on the National Assembly to commence a fresh process to amend the Electoral Act.
Speaking on behalf of the opposition at a press conference in Abuja on Thursday, NNPP National Chairman, Ajuji Ahmed, urged federal lawmakers to expunge all objectionable provisions contained in the Act.
Prominent opposition figures at the meeting included former Senate President David Mark; NNPP chieftain Buba Galadima; former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar; and the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi.
Also in attendance at the Lagos/Osun Hall of Transcorp Hilton, Abuja, were the ADC National Secretary, Rauf Aregbesola; former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi; and the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, alongside other stakeholders.
Others present included Senator Dino Melaye, former ADC National Chairman Ralph Nwosu, and former Cross River State Governor Liyel Imoke, among several dignitaries.
The Bayelsa state house of assembly has approved the appointment of Peter Akpe as the deputy governor of the state.
Akpe, a pastor, served as chief of staff to Douye Diri, governor of Bayelsa, prior to his nomination.
Ordained clergy by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Akpe has had a career spanning the civil service and politics.
He served in the Rivers and Bayelsa state civil services before transitioning fully into politics.
Akpe was a two-term member of the Bayelsa state house of assembly from 2011 to 2019, serving as majority leader throughout his stint in the legislature.
He also served as commissioner between 2008 and 2011 under the Seriake Dickson administration.
The approval clears the way for his swearing-in as deputy governor.
Akpe’s appointment follows the death of Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo, the former deputy governor, who passed on last December.
