A dramatic new prophecy from Primate Elijah Ayodele, spiritual leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has jolted Nigeria’s political landscape as he declares that God has revealed the identities of three individuals who could derail President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 re-election bid — should any of them enter the race.
In a wide-ranging and intense interview with Sunday Tribune, the Lagos-based cleric, widely known for past prophecies that have come to pass, warned that the 2027 general elections would not be an ordinary political contest but a high-stakes “war game.” While he once warned Nigerians against electing Tinubu in 2022, citing potential national hardship under his leadership, Ayodele now says that unless one of these three divinely revealed contenders steps into the ring, Tinubu remains the safest political option.
“Let me be clear: if Nigerians vote for Peter Obi, tragedy will strike. If they vote for Atiku Abubakar, Nigeria will collapse. As surprising as it may seem, Tinubu — the same Tinubu — is the one to vote for. That’s the truth,” Ayodele stated.
Yet, the prophecy takes a decisive turn. “There’s a comma — a divine pause,” he added cryptically. “God has revealed three names to me. If any one of them enters the race, Tinubu’s presidency will not go beyond 2027. He won’t return.” When pressed for details, Ayodele declined to identify the trio, declaring, “I will not reveal those names — not even under gunpoint. Once one of them emerges, I’ll boldly tell Nigerians: ‘This is the man.’ And Tinubu will not win.”
This startling declaration adds a spiritual layer to Nigeria’s political forecasting, and it signals that the 2027 elections may be more unpredictable than ever anticipated. According to the prophet, Nigerians must remain spiritually vigilant, as the nation’s political and security paths remain under divine scrutiny.
Ayodele also issued multiple warnings about internal conflicts that could destabilize the ruling party. Tensions are predicted between Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima, though the prophet advised against replacing Shettima. Sanwo-Olu, the Lagos governor, will also find himself at odds with Tinubu. Ayodele further warned that Speaker Mudashiru Obasa’s political future could be derailed by personal indulgences if caution is not exercised.
Beyond the presidency, the cleric outlined state-level upheavals:
-
Imo State: Governor Hope Uzodimma may gain relevance in Abuja but must choose his successor carefully to avoid political disaster.
-
Abia: Governor Alex Otti risks facing false accusations and political betrayal due to his inflexible approach, and his party loyalty remains uncertain.
-
Adamawa: A fierce rift is predicted between Governor Ahmadu Fintiri and Atiku Abubakar, with religious sentiments potentially complicating matters.
-
Delta: Sheriff Oborevwori may face rejection within APC ranks and could mismanage party affairs, leading to disillusionment and threats of violence.
-
Oyo: Political unrest is brewing. Religious groups and regional blocs like Oke-Ogun will challenge Ibadan's dominance, complicating the state’s political equilibrium.
-
Niger State: The governor’s efforts could be overshadowed by internal strife and unacknowledged progress.
On security, the prophet raised grave concerns, claiming President Tinubu’s personal security had been compromised. He warned of threats targeting the First Lady, including a potential poisoning plot, and urged the immediate replacement of domestic staff. He also foresaw an unexpected shooting incident within the Presidential Villa if caution is not taken.
A chilling prediction of a new terrorist group merging with Boko Haram paints a bleak picture for Nigeria’s security outlook. Bombings and insurgent attacks are forecasted for areas such as Borno, Kano, Bauchi, Abuja, and parts of the South-West and South-East. He insists a complete overhaul of the national security architecture, including replacing the Inspector-General of Police, is essential.
Infrastructure and environmental risks were also addressed. Ayodele warned of severe flooding across states like Lagos, Abuja, Benue, Osun, and Kano. Temporary telecommunications outages are also predicted, and major fires could strike prominent commercial hubs, including Shoprite and Eleganza. Airline companies, particularly Air Peace, were advised to conduct thorough technical inspections to prevent accidents.
On the global front, Ayodele issued a stern warning against permitting a French military base in Nigeria, suggesting it would invite disaster. He also predicted threats to religious gatherings in several southern states and hinted at a possible military revolt.
Despite the grave tone of many of his revelations, Ayodele expressed hope for Nigeria’s future, envisioning a time when the nation’s passport will earn global respect, oil revenues will surge, and the country's international image will be redeemed. However, he stressed that this future hinges on leadership that respects divine guidance.
As Nigeria inches toward the 2027 elections, Primate Ayodele’s prophecies offer both a warning and a call to spiritual and political accountability. His message is clear: destiny may already be in motion—but who will rise to meet it remains to be seen.
