Presidential Election Tribunal: 'I see rerun but forces will fight it' - Primate Ayodele prophesizes

The leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has prophesied that a rerun of the 2023 presidential election may occur, however, forces behind the election results will stand strongly against it.

According to the man of God, there are leakages in the judiciary which are not well packaged, and it would later expose all the ills of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ayodele added that APC has seen that there are no two ways to the election tribunal and is seriously watching the proceedings to make sure nothing goes wrong in favour of the opposition.

He said: “If the tribunal wants to be fair, the best is to call for a rerun but forces behind the case will want the election result to remain as it is.

“The point is the direction of what I see is a rerun of the election but the forces behind the election will want it to remain the same.

"This will knock the judiciary and make them be irrelevant. It will make INEC not to be a body Nigeria can rely on. Of course, Judiciary will pay for it if it doesn’t go for it and INEC will pay for it in the future.

"What I see is a rerun but the power behind it will try to make it remain as it is. The tribunal is supposed to raise the hope of Nigeria and correct all the misconduct of the judiciary but the forces behind it will fight against the right thing."

Ayodele advised the judiciary to raise the hope of Nigerians by delivering a fair judgment though forces will seriously fight against the right judgment.

He stressed that an unfair judgement will reduce the judiciary and the independent national electoral commission (INEC) to irrelevant bodies.

"As Nigerians await the tribunal judgment, there is no way to it, there are leakages in the Tribunal as revealed by the Lord. The Leakages are not well packaged and will expose the ruling party.

“The ruling party has also realised that there are no two ways to it. There are cabals monitoring this tribunal and they are very desperate,” he said.
