The leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has issued a stern warning to President Bola Tinubu, cautioning him about potential dangers within the Presidential Villa and urging heightened vigilance against external threats.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele said his warning stems from a spiritual vision and is intended to alert the President rather than cause alarm.
Internal Danger and Security Alert
Primate Ayodele urged President Tinubu to exercise caution with those working closely with him, noting:
“There is danger in the presidential villa. The President must be very careful of the people working closely with him. He needs to watch his steps carefully. I see danger ahead. I am warning as the spirit of God led me, this is not to scare anybody, but to caution the president.”
He also called on the Chief of Defence Staff and other security chiefs to maintain heightened alertness to avert potential threats.
“Nigeria must also be careful of external aggression; let the DSS and the security agencies be careful and be prepared. The military must also work tirelessly to prevent external interference. I don’t know where it is coming from, but they shouldn’t take it for granted,” Ayodele added.
Caution on Foreign Relations
Beyond internal threats, the cleric warned President Tinubu to be wary of the nation’s relationship with the United States, suggesting that some promises or agreements could backfire:
“America isn’t your friend, don’t be desperate about them. They are not ready to work with you. That is the truth. Some people are destroying your work, and you have not identified them. They are only deceiving you,” he said.
Primate Ayodele stressed that the President should carefully consider agreements and alliances to avoid actions that could harm both himself and the country.
