The leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has issued a strong warning to several Nigerian governors ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Speaking on Tuesday through a statement released by his media aide, Oluwatosin Osho, Primate Ayodele cautioned the governors not to underestimate the emerging coalition platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC). He claimed that the party has the potential to dethrone incumbent governors if proactive steps are not taken.
“Some Nigerian governors will be removed from power by ADC if care isn’t taken,” Ayodele said. “They will find it difficult to get re-elected in their respective offices. On a free and fair election, they won’t win; they can only rig.”
He further warned that the ADC-led coalition, though currently underestimated, could pose a real threat in the 2027 elections, stressing the need for governors to take the warning seriously.
“They should not underestimate the coalition platform; they may not see it now, but they must be very careful.”
Re-election Uncertain for Some Governors
The prophet, known for his frequent political prophecies, had earlier warned that some state governors are facing an uncertain re-election path unless they combine hard work with prayer.
In a previous message released just two days earlier, Ayodele listed the governors of Akwa Ibom, Delta, Enugu, Cross River, Kaduna, Zamfara, and Ondo as those who must intensify their efforts if they hope to secure a second term.
“It’s not certain for them except they work hard and pray,” he stated. “This is a hint of what they should expect. They need to work very well so that they won’t lose their second-term ambition.”
Political Forecasts Stir Conversation
Primate Ayodele is widely recognized for his controversial prophecies on political affairs, often attracting national attention. His latest forecast adds to the growing political discourse ahead of Nigeria’s 2027 general elections, especially as opposition alliances continue to take shape.
