Primate Ayodele has offered opposition leaders a divine strategy to defeat Tinubu and APC in 2027.
NewsOnline Nigeria reports that popular Nigerian Cleric and Spiritual Leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has declared that Labour Party’s Peter Obi alone does not have what it takes to stop President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
Speaking in a statement issued by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, the prophet said it would take more than Obi or the current opposition coalition to unseat Tinubu, who, according to him, has done relatively better than his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari.

“Peter Obi alone cannot weaken President Tinubu’s ambition,” Ayodele said. “He can’t win the presidency by himself, and the opposition doesn’t yet have the people it needs to truly challenge Tinubu.”
While Ayodele didn’t reveal names, he claimed there are three individuals who could significantly alter the political equation if they decide to run or join the opposition movement.
“If any of these three key figures enter the race or align with the coalition, Tinubu should forget about 2027,” he warned. “Their involvement would shift everything.”
The cleric acknowledged Tinubu’s performance so far, saying the president has shown more effort than Buhari and has the potential to do better in a second term—if Nigerians give him the chance.
However, he advised that Tinubu must tread carefully, particularly in northern Nigeria, where betrayal could come from unexpected quarters.
“He must work on the North,” Ayodele cautioned. “If he doesn’t put the right people in key positions, his ambition could be cut short. There are people around him who might betray that trust when it matters most.”
The prophet added that the president would need to take three specific actions—though he did not disclose what they are—to secure a second term.
“2027 will be nothing like what we’ve seen before,” he said. “It won’t be a walk in the park. The presence or absence of these three mysterious figures will make all the difference.”
