The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has released a fresh message concerning the future of Nigeria’s opposition parties, particularly the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Speaking during a church session, the cleric made it clear that his words are not rooted in partisanship but in divine instruction. “I’m not going to support anybody, but this is what the Lord said I should tell ADC and PDP,” Ayodele declared, emphasizing that his role is to speak the mind of God, not to endorse political interests.
The prophet explained that both parties must return to the drawing board if they wish to remain relevant in the coming elections. According to him, disunity, selfish ambition, and lack of proper grassroots structures will continue to hinder their progress if urgent steps are not taken.
Ayodele urged ADC to build alliances with stronger opposition blocs, warning that standing alone will only weaken its chances. For the PDP, he stressed the importance of reconciliation and restructuring, pointing out that internal wrangling has been the major reason for its declining influence in national politics.
He further advised that both parties must connect with the real needs of Nigerians—such as food security, job creation, and affordable living—rather than focusing solely on power struggles.
The cleric reiterated that his message is a divine caution rather than political commentary, adding that failure to heed such warnings will leave the opposition space vulnerable to collapse.
