The leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has released a fresh prophecy concerning the upcoming 2027 presidential election.

According to the popular cleric, incumbent President Bola Tinubu can only win the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, through rigging.

Ayodele, in a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, said support for Tinubu was waning in the North, urging the president to take the necessary steps to address the situation.

He added that God had given the North the power to decide who rules the country and that any candidate without its support risked losing the election.

“The North hates Tinubu’s candidacy, and even with Yari as DG, they are adamant about voting for Tinubu because what is happening now is just nemesis. God has given the North the power to decide who rules Nigeria.

“It is wherever they decide that the pendulum will switch to. Tinubu will have problems in some northern states, including Adamawa, Katsina, Jigawa, Zamfara, Sokoto and Bauchi. Abuja, too, is shaking, and it can only be gotten through rigging. Yobe, Gombe and Kebbi are divided.

“It can still change if the president knows what to do, but they are shaking already. Yari cannot do the mending. It’s all about time, and the date for the election is not a victory date for Tinubu,” he said.

Primate Ayodele also predicted that Nigeria would change its name, explaining that the country’s name was spiritually contaminated which has negatively affected its governance.

“The name Nigeria is affecting the leadership of this great nation. It will eventually be changed when God opens the eyes of some leaders. The name is contaminated and has serious spiritual implications for the nation.

“It will not make the government know what to do when they get to power, even if they have good intentions. The name doesn’t have a good aura and will cause setbacks. You may not understand, but when it’s time, people will know better,” he said.
