Prophecy Sparks Controversy: Cleric Advises Peter Obi to Rethink Northern Nigeria Investments



A bold prophecy by Primate Elijah Ayodele, leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church (IESC Worldwide), has ignited controversy in Nigeria's political landscape. Ayodele has urged Labour Party's Peter Obi to reconsider his political investments in Northern Nigeria, citing the region's reluctance to support a Christian president. In a live Facebook message to his congregation, Ayodele emphatically stated, "Obi, don't waste your money to the North. The North doesn't want a Christian as president. That money you are putting in the North is a waste."


The pronouncement has sparked sharp reactions across Nigeria's political divide, with many viewing it as a direct challenge to Obi's efforts to expand his influence ahead of the 2027 elections. Obi has been strengthening his presence across all six geopolitical zones, including Northern states where he has faced both enthusiasm and resistance. His supporters argue that his message transcends religious and ethnic lines, appealing to Nigerians from all walks of life.


Ayodele's remarks highlight the enduring complexities of identity, faith, and power in Nigerian elections. As a cleric renowned for his politically charged prophecies, Ayodele warned that deep-rooted religious sentiments remain a formidable barrier in Northern politics. This sentiment is not new, as Nigeria's political landscape has long been shaped by the complex interplay of religion, ethnicity, and regional identity.


The controversy surrounding Ayodele's prophecy underscores the challenges faced by politicians in Nigeria's diverse and complex electoral landscape. As the 2027 elections approach, Obi's strategy and response to Ayodele's prophecy will be closely watched by supporters, critics, and neutral observers alike. Will Obi heed Ayodele's warning, or will he continue to push forward with his current strategy? Only time will tell.
