Primate Ayodele celebrates 30 years of ‘Warnings To the Nations’ with new prophecies, empowerments

By BASHIR ADEFAKA

Fiery evangelical and spiritual maestro, Primate Elijah Babatunde Ayodele, JP, made good yet another special day he had set aside to do his usual good work of celebrating goodness and appreciating contributors of progress either to his INRI Evangelical and Spiritual Church or humanity around, as he marked the occasion of his 30 Years Of Warnings To The Nations (WTN) in Lagos, on Saturday July 6, 2024.

At the Achievers’ Cathedral venue of the event in the Oke Afa, Isolo, Lagos, Primate Ayodele, in his usual charisma, started by causing prayers both in Christian and Muslim ways to be offered and then proceeded to addressing the press. Before the press briefing, however, the event witnessed an interlude of INRI children’s choreography on his about to be launched 2024/2025 Warnings To The Nations (WTN) book.

During the children’s performance, they recalled many of past prophecies of the Prophet that came to past including the 2012 prophecy in the WTN that, according to the choreography performers, warned that then Mr. Lamido Sanusi Lamido would not return for second term as Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and that he would become the Emir of Kano but with many challenges lurking ahead for him over the royalty of Kano.

They also recalled the 2022/2023 WTN from which they extracted the prophecy where the CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele was warned to pray hard against being arrested and put on trial.

When it was his time to handle the microphone, the Primate started by first making presentation of cheques in appreciation of some media organizations and personalities he said had been long standing supporter of his church and also gave empowerments to some pastors and members of the church for their dedication to the service of God under his leadership.

The DEFENDER, Global Excellence Magazine, Sun were among media organisations, whose journalists were gifted with cash appreciation of N250,000 each during the programme, after which he moved on to perform the official dedication of the new book on Warnings To The Nations (WTN), while also later going ahead to address the press on his life as Servant of the Most High God in the last 30 years.

Primate Ayodele said, “Warnings To The Nations started from a room. Gradually there were a lot of prophecies from various quarters that this would not last. I give kudos to a prophet, despite the fact that I don’t have any role model but I cherish and I give honour to this man, Primate Olabayo, who had been consistently then giving prophecies. I remember people like Professor Oyewole, Primate Olabayo, Prophet Adewole of CCC, Opo Igbala, something like that. These were the people that we met.

“And we are still alive I give God the glory for keeping me and my charming church. Thirty years journey is not a child’s play. We started from nothing to something to the glory of God Almighty,” he said, recalling how he was introduced to the media in order for him not to deprive his divine gift of prophethood.

According to him, his first prophecy in the media was in February 1994 when “I made a public prophecy in Weekend Times written by Paul Mogua when Foluke Ajayi was the Editor of Weekend Times. I said Nigeria would go to Nation’s Cup but they would not perform in World Cup. They now said ‘we would use this story against you if it doesn’t happen that way’ and I said, ‘okay, fine’. But when it happened in 1995, they now said they should go and give me a full page. That was when Charles Okogene came to interview me and that was when we now talked about Kudirat Abiola.  When it happened, they now started looking for me.”

He continued, “In 1996 we began to gain ground gradually we had Abacha regime then and that was when Mr. Dare Adejuwon encouraged me because at that time if you said anything against the government of Abacha, you will be arrested. When we said Abacha would not transform from military to civilian, there was high tension. My church members were afraid but that time had passed.”

He talked about his 2023 prophecies about APC that made people spoke ills and journalists he called APC journalists stopped to write stories about him and said it bothered him not as he did not need to know anybody to do his job as a man of God.

He added that it was the reason, “Why I don’t belong to CAN, PFN, they are political organisations. They are just doing it for what they will make because they are not ordained. They are working for government,” he said, asking to know how many industries CAN had put in place saying, “We have churches that are very rich” without benefits to their members.

“Church contributes to problem of this country,” he pointed out, saying there is healing but that pastors have turned healing to comedy in Nigeria. He said it is time that they stop.

Tinubu not Messiah

On his new prophecies he said, “I am still saying it again, Tinubu is not Nigeria’s Messiah. He has only come to do one or two things and this is just to strengthen our democracy, nothing much on economy. We are still going to experience another hardship 2025 and confusion in our economy.

Insecurity

“When we talk about insecurity as well, the question is that, is there going to be anything special in terms of insecurity? I have said it loud and clear, he has a good service chiefs from the Chief of Air Staff, Navy and Army, Police. But if they refuse to build three towers, insecurity will continue and bombings here, shooting, kidnapping military personnel will continue. That’s a simple solution to our insecurity.

“And I will still say this: State Police will not help our nation. State Police will even add to the troubles of insecurity and, as a matter of fact, some politicians will use it as a weapon and there will be disorderliness in our security. So, let us suspend anything about State Police for now. It is not the best idea to go about.

Edo election

“Now we talk about Edo election. Sincerely, I am not bothered, call me any name like PDP prophet, we are used to all of these. It doesn’t frighten me. We don’t bother about names. Mind you, every prophet who speaks about a nation is a political prophet. What do you mean by political prophets? These are the people that God reveals to, what is going to happen in the coming years and they have to deliver it the way it is.

“If Obaseki does not negotiate, PDP will lose Edo disgracefully except he can quickly negotiate with the power that be. If he doesn’t negotiate, PDP will lose Edo,” he said.

Anambra election

Speaking further he said the APC will lose Anambra and cede the position back to Soludo.

Ondo election

I have not seen who will win Ondo safe the same party, that is, APC. Ajayi is just wasting his money. Everybody there is just wasting money. It is either they support Aiyedatiwa…..

2027

“Then come 2027 I see dark cloud. The strong killer that can destroy PDP is Wike. If they don’t fight Wike, PDP will die. Wike is the one that will kill PDP. Atiku is just making noise. Atiku should forget 2027 ambition. Let us turn to Peter Obi: Honestly, if Obi becomes Nigeria’s president, Nigeria will scatter. If you handover power to Obi, Nigeria will see triple, four, five times hardship, difficulty, sorrow, calamity.

“Let’s turn to APC, Tinubu will have a very tough time. The point is, Tinubu going for second term will be very challenging. There will be so much pressure on him. He needs to look after his health that is number one. Number two, a lot of things Tinubu cannot do.

“Nigeria will break, not Nnamdi Kanu or Igboho will break Nigeria. Nnamdi Kanu should go and beg the government, hands off and let him be released. If he says he wants to do as….., he will just die in jail. Just hands off. You don’t have the capacity.”
