FOUNDER and spiritual head, INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Babatunde Elijah Ayodele held to his gun on his prophecy that All Progressives Congress (APC) will lose Lagos State in the 2015 governorship election if the party fields Akinwunmi Ambode, former Accountant General of the state and winner of the Thursday, December 4, 2014 governorship primary election held at Onikan Stadium, Lagos.
Speaking with ENCOMIUM Weekly on Saturday, December 6, 2014, the popular seer who claims most of his predictions have come to pass said he wouldn’t like to delve on the issue since he is not a politician, instead he would rather allow God to justify His words.
“I have no further comment on that. Let the Lord justify His words for He exalts His words above His name. Oro Oluwa ede ni” (God’s pronouncements are instant).
Meanwhile, in an interview the Ekiti born preacher of the Word granted ENCOMIUM Weekly a couple of weeks ago, he came out point blank that the ruling APC in the state will lose the forthcoming guber election if the party fields Ambode, among his other predictions in the interview.
This was, however, swiftly replied by Ambode, via his media aide, Mr. Idowu Ajanaku who insisted that the accountant turned politician’s victory is sure as that has been predicted earlier by the revered preacher of the Word and General Overseer, The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye.
“Pastor Adeboye has assured me of victory,” he said.
The forecast of the renowned prophet has left some political watchers within and outside the state in doubt as to whether APC will still remain in power in the state after 2015 governorship election based on the credibility of Ayodele’s predictions over the years.
