Why Primate Ayodele’s Prophecies On Anambra Governorship Election Stand Out
Written By Osho Oluwatosin
A true prophet is rare in this dispensation, what we have most of the times are prophets who give ‘prophecies’ when there is a situation on ground that already looks like what they are prophesying about.
Biblically, it doesn’t look like prophecy but an opinion or guesswork after studying the underlying situation.
I would love to borrow the word of a popular man of God that says a true prophet is one prophesies when there is no situation on ground. A true prophet is one who speaks into the future, he talks on issues people never believe but eventually comes to pass.
We have several prophets in Nigeria and the Anambra gubernatorial election which will be happening in seven-day time seem to have separated the shaft from the wheat.
As we speak, we have about three prominent prophets that have spoken about the coming election at different times.
They include Primate Elijah Ayodele, Prophet Odumeje and Rev Fr Mbaka. Until recently, Primate Ayodele has been the only one giving several prophecies about this election before Prophet Odumeje and Rev Fr Mbaka joined last week.
Amongst these prophets, Primate Elijah Ayodele who is the leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual church is different and distinct in his prophecies on the election.
As a matter of fact, there is no election in Nigeria and the world at large that he doesn’t prophecy what the outcome would be and one interesting part about him is the uniqueness.
His style is giving prophetic advice to political parties on candidates they should choose, after then he talks about what will define the election, then the chances of the candidates in the election, then the winner of the election.
He follows that consistent pattern to give these prophecies and it is one of the reasons his prophecies are always referenced in any election in Nigeria and the world.
Infact, many politicians end up misrepresenting his prophecies and use it for their campaigns, which shows how powerful and distinct his prophecies have become over the years.
We earlier mentioned three prophets who have given prophecies on the November 6 election.
It is important to state in clear terms what they said exactly about the election.
Prophet Odumeje revealed that he doesn’t see an election holding, he said it will be an election of guns and violence.
‘“The future I am looking at, everybody will be shocked because there will massive death. I am seeing a massive death. And it shall be gun to gun.”
He added: “I am looking at an election that will come in Anambra State. Be praying. I don’t see elections, I see deaths. I see deaths of guns[sic].”
“I don’t see the election holding. I have been praying and telling God. Because I am seeing where people kill people. Don’t say I did not said [sic] it.”
Rev Fr Mbaka didn’t come out straight but he stylishly endorsed the candidate of Accord party, Godwin Maduka and revealed that he is the best candidate Anambra can have as a governor during his visit to Mbaka’s church.
These were said earlier this week, few days to the election.
The prophecies of Primate Ayodele on Anambra election dates back to December 2019.
He had clearly stated that APC will not win the governorship election in the state 11 months before the election.
In March again, Primate Ayodele released another prophecy where he talked about candidates that won’t win election even if they get chosen by their party.
‘’ “On Anambra 2021, I want to advice Paul Orajiaka, Andy Uba from APC, Uche Ekwunife, Godwin Ezeemo from APGA not to bother about governing the state.
“They don’t have God’s backing.
“Instead of wasting money to campaign, they should channel their money into humanitarian activities like giving the less privileged and widows in the society.”

This particular prophesy caused tension as some who were aspirants then tackled the prophet for giving such a prophesy against their ambition.
In May, Primate Ayodele gave prophetic advise to political parties on candidates they should choose if at all they want to have a chance in the election.
For APGA, he mentioned three names that include Charles Soludo and Chukwma Umeoji.
He further went to say the party will kick against Soludo and his emergence will cause crisis within the party, we all can see what is happening in APGA now. Soludo’s candidacy brought faction and till now, they are yet to settled.
‘’ In APGA, It is between Charles Soludo, Chukwuma Umeoji, and Akachukwu Nwankpo but Soludo has an upper hand.
“He should be on alert as his emergence as the party candidate will cause crisis in the party, He shouldn’t underestimate his counterparts.
‘’Some in the party will kick against the victory of Charles Soludo in the party, If the other aspirants can form a coalition and work very hard, they can outshine Charles Soludo in the party primaries but he is the one that party stakeholders want.
For PDP, Primate Ayodele said the candidacy is between Valentine Ozigbo, Godwin Maduka, Tony Nwoye.
He advised the party to be free and fair in the primary election because of emergence of the candidates.
We all saw how PDP almost killed their chances in the election, INEC didn’t recognize any candidate until recently due to the fact that they were not free and fair enough.
‘’ ‘’In PDP, it is between, Godwin Maduka, Tony Nwoye, and Mr Valentine Ozigbo but the interest of the party is on Godwin Maduka, he must not also underestimate any of these aspirants, if he plays his way well, He can emerge as the candidate of the party.
PDP must play a free and fair primary as some factors will influence Godwin Maduka against others’’
In YPP, He mentioned Ifeanyi Uba and in APC, he mentioned about four people who can help APC have a chance in the election but warned that they should work on aggrieved parties as it may cause mass exodus in the party.
Though Andy Uba emerged in the APC but one of the aspirants, George Moghalu is currently in court to claim candidacy.
He has a very good case and may eventually be declared as the right candidate of the party.
‘’In YPP, Ifeanyi Uba will scale through as the candidate of the party. His challenger, Chief Emma Nkwocha should collapse his structure for Ifeanyi Uba because he won’t be able to make bold statements for the party.
‘’In APC, it is between George Moghalu, Ben Atiaba, Andy Uba. APC must play it cleverly so that it will not cause mass exodus on the party, they should also settle aggrieved party members.’’
After releasing these prophecies to parties, Primate Ayodele then revealed that he sees violence, killings before the main election and during the main election.
This was when no situation was on ground in Anambra but as prophet that he is, he foresaw it and the result is very visible as we speak.
‘‘I want to urge every politician in Anambra to desist from violence, shun thuggery and destruction of properties, rather embrace peace and the spirit of sportsmanship. I see violence and killings during the primaries and the main election,’’

Subsequently in October, Primate Ayodele spoke about the main election and how the outcome will look like.
In his prophecy, He mentioned that the APC and APGA are bent on taking power by force through rigging in the state but YPP and PDP have a better chance in the election. He then advised them on how to win the election.
‘’PDP has what it takes, they have the resources but except their candidate, Valentine Ozigbo does the necessary things, he won’t win.
A coalition will help PDP more to get their chances. If they do what is right, they will get it.
Unless PDP wakes up, gets a coalition, and puts their house in proper order, they will not be victorious, they should manage things properly. Three days to the election, things will start changing, PDP should prepare well’’
‘’YPP candidate, Ifeanyi Ubah is not ready to take victory, victory is surrounding him but he isn’t ready for it.
They will ease him out technically, he is getting some things wrong except he does the needful.
He has what it takes but he isn’t managing it, he is playing around the victory and people are not seeing him as well prepared for the election victory. The victory is close to him but he doesn’t know how to claim it.’’
Going through these prophecies, one can be left with no doubt that the sequence shows the truly, Primate Ayodele didn’t talk based on opinion or what he has heard before, It was a result of divine encounter with God on the election.
He didn’t just speak without explaining in details what his prophecies meant.
Meanwhile, this is not the first time Primate Ayodele will be churning out prophecies this way, he did same with US election, Ghana election, Edo state election, Ondo state election, to mention a few.
With this, Primate Ayodele keeps on raising the standard in the prophetic ministry.

I Have Delivered On Yahaya Bello Prosecution Promise — EFCC Chairman Olukoyede
EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyede has declared that he has fulfilled his 2024 promise to oversee the prosecution of former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello.
Addressing public questions regarding his previous vow to resign if Bello was not prosecuted, Olukoyede stated during an interview on Sunday Politics aired by Channels Television that his mandate to investigate and bring the matter to court has been achieved.
“A sitting governor, because he knew he was about to leave office, moved money directly from government to a bureau de change and used it to pay his child’s school fees in advance $720,000,” Olukoyede said.
He described the alleged action as disturbing, particularly in view of the economic condition of Kogi State.
“In a poor state like Kogi, you want me to close my eyes to that under the excuse that I am being used? Being used by who at this stage of my life?” he asked.
Olukoyede also recalled a public statement he made in April 2024, when he vowed to resign if Bello was not prosecuted.
“If I do not personally oversee the completion of the investigation regarding Yahaya Bello, I will tender my resignation as the chairman of the EFCC,” he had said.
Addressing public concerns over the pace of the case, the EFCC chairman said the commission had fulfilled its responsibility and that the matter is now before the courts.
“Have I not fulfilled that promise? Is Yahaya Bello not being prosecuted? The case is in court,” he said.
He stressed that the EFCC’s role is to investigate and prosecute, not to determine guilt or secure convictions.
“I have three cases against Yahaya Bello. Am I the judge who will decide conviction? I have done my work and fulfilled my mandate,” Olukoyede added.
Bello is currently facing multiple charges before different courts. He is standing trial on a 16-count charge involving alleged property fraud amounting to N110 billion, alongside Umar Oricha and Abdulsalami Hudu.
In a separate case before the Federal High Court, the former governor is also facing a 19-count charge bordering on alleged fraud and money laundering involving N80.2 billion.
The EFCC had earlier declared Bello wanted in April 2024 over alleged financial crimes estimated at about N80 billion, a development that sparked widespread political debate.

Atiku Issues Stern Warning To Tinubu Govt Over Detention Of Critic Abubakar Musa
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar demanded the immediate and unconditional release of Abubakar Salim Musa (known as @AM_Saleeeem on X), a prominent critic of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
Atiku’s statement characterized the arrest as part of a “growing crackdown on dissent” and warned that such repression threatens Nigeria’s democratic future as the nation approaches a critical general election period.
Atiku made the call in a statement issued on Monday, following a report by Amnesty International Nigeria on the arrest of the young Nigerian on Sunday, January 11, 2026.
“This case is yet another stark example of the repressive nature of the President Bola Tinubu administration, which continues to bare its fangs against dissent, whether expressed through public protests or online criticism,” Atiku said.
According to him, Musa’s only offence was his persistent criticism of the worsening security situation in Northern Nigeria and across the country.
“Abubakar’s only ‘offense’ was his consistent and legitimate criticism of the deteriorating security situation in Northern Nigeria and across the country,” he stated.
Rather than engage with the concerns raised, Atiku said the government resorted to intimidation and prosecution.
“Instead of addressing these serious concerns, the government’s response has been to arrest him and subject him to what Amnesty International rightly describes as ‘bogus charges and a sham trial,” he added.
The former vice president stressed that Musa’s arrest was not an isolated incident, noting that several Nigerians had suffered similar treatment for expressing dissent.
“Numerous Nigerians, including journalists, schoolchildren, entertainers and even NYSC members, have faced arrest, assault and intimidation simply for criticising the President or members of his family,” Atiku said.
He warned that such actions pose a grave threat to Nigeria’s democratic foundations.
“This dangerous trend undermines the very foundations of democracy, which rest on the protection of fundamental human rights and freedom of expression,” he said.
Atiku further argued that Nigeria’s democratic credentials were being eroded by the continued repression of critics.
“Nigeria cannot claim to be part of the free world while its citizens are routinely arrested, assaulted and intimidated for voicing criticism of their government,” he stated.
With general elections approaching, Atiku cautioned against an atmosphere of fear and repression.
“As the nation approaches a critical general election, neither the people nor the opposition can operate effectively in an atmosphere of fear and repression,” he warned.
He demanded the immediate and unconditional release of Musa and others detained for exercising their constitutional rights.
“I call on the Tinubu administration to immediately and unconditionally release Abubakar Salim Musa and all others detained for exercising their constitutional rights,” Atiku said.
He also urged the government to halt arbitrary arrests and intimidation, while calling on the international community to intervene.
“I urge the international community, particularly countries and organisations that champion democracy and human rights, to hold the Tinubu regime accountable and demand an end to these violations,” he said.
Atiku concluded by calling on Nigerians and civil society groups to resist any further erosion of civil liberties.
“I encourage fellow patriots, civil society groups and all Nigerians of conscience to join this demand and stand firmly against any further erosion of our freedoms,” he added.

Boko Haram Demands $300,000 Ransom For Abducted Borno Ex-LG Chair, Another Victim
A new video has emerged showing two men reportedly kidnapped by Boko Haram insurgents in Borno State, pleading for assistance to secure their release.
One of the captives, former Biu Local Government Area Chairman Hassan Biu Miringa, revealed that their abductors are demanding a $300,000 ransom.
Miringa said he and another individual were taken in December 2025 and have remained in the custody of the militants.
In the video shared by Zagazola Makama, Miringa introduced himself, saying: “I am Hassan Biu Miringa, former Chairman of Biu Local Government from 2020 to 2022. Four years after my tenure, we were kidnapped by the soldiers of Khilafa about two weeks ago. Alhamdulillah, we are still alive, but we urgently need help to save our lives.”
He added that negotiations with the kidnappers had been underway, with some preliminary agreements reportedly reached.
“We have engaged them on four separate occasions and reached an understanding. We appeal to our leaders, especially Borno State Deputy Governor Alhaji Usman Umar Kadafur, the National Assembly representative for Biu, Kwaya, and Shani Hon. Betera Aliyu, as well as our community leaders, to temper justice with mercy and assist us. We are their children and have been working together,” Miringa said.
He confirmed the ransom demand, explaining that each captive is expected to pay $150,000, totaling $300,000 for their freedom, and pleaded for urgent intervention to reunite with their families.
The video highlights ongoing concerns over kidnappings and insecurity in southern Borno State, which have persisted despite government efforts to curb insurgent activity in the region.
