You Are My Boy, I Won’t Pray Against You – Primate Ayodele Replies Femi Adesina

The leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has declared that he won’t join issues with presidential spokesperson, Femi Adesina over his position on the recent prophecy about Nigeria’s break up.

Describing Adesina as his boy who is only trying to defend his paymasters, Primate Ayodele told the special adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on media and publicity to do more investigations before labelling his prophecies as fake.

Naija News recalls the clergyman in a recent prophecy among other things, predicted that Nigeria will break up between 2035 and 2040.

But in a sharp and quick reply, Mr. Adesina in an article titled ‘some prophets see nothing’ told the clergy that Nigeria won’t break up, adding that in the past, he had released many fake prophecies that didn’t come to pass.

However, the prophet during a live service today said he can’t join issues with Adesina, telling him to wait for the time announced before categorizing his prophecy as fake.

He also denounced making prophecies that didn’t come to reality in the past adding that he won’t act or pray against the presidential media aide.

The primate said: ‘’Femi Adesina is my son, I can’t join issues with him, I understand he is only trying to defend his paymasters, I am not angry with him. I’m not bothered by his claims against my prophecies but there is a need to lecture him with facts. Femi Adesina failed journalism by not doing proper investigation before describing my prophecies as fake.’’

‘’He claimed that I said Goodluck Jonathan was going to win in 2015, PDP will win some state which they didn’t later win, the death of Buhari which didn’t happen, and many others. Unfortunately, all Femi Adesina said were pure lies, it is on record that I prophesied the victory of President Buhari, prayed for Buhari’s return from his long medical vacation, loss of PDP in those states he mentioned, these can be found in national newspapers’’

‘’If Femi Adesina saw anything contrary to this, it simply means He didn’t do his investigations properly and paid attention to hearsays instead of going after facts. Well, He is now a big boy and can’t go through the stress of investigating properly’’

‘’He claimed all my prophecies are negative but where was he when I prophesied the death of Abubakar Shekau earlier this year?’’

‘’On my prophecy about Nigeria’s break up before 2040, Femi Adesina should wait till then before describing this prophecy as false, I didn’t prophesy out of my intelligence or knowledge but according to the spirit of God’’

‘’Femi has been in the team of pulling down men of God for so long but He is my boy, He can’t pull me down at all, this ministry is built on prayers. He has interviewed me before, we have met and I even prayed for him some years back’’

‘’Before Buhari became president, I told him personally that He would someday become President when he was in ANPP, Femi was not even there but he can verify this from the President. Femi is one of the people I have prayed for to become great in life, I don’t even see his criticism against me as an Insult, it only means the Presidency are paying attention to the warnings of God, just that they are going about it the wrong way’’

‘’Femi is not the one to say who a prophet is, I don’t want to join issues with him, He is my boy, he is just being used by his paymasters and I am not bothered about it. He should apologize to his masters and to God for lying against me’’

‘’Nobody can keep my mouth shut, I will continue saying whatever God asks me to say, he claims prophets see nothing, He should leave the prophets alone and wait if their prophecies will come to pass or not.’’

‘’I will not say what they want to hear, I will tell them what God says I should say, I am not angry with Femi, I won’t pray against him, like I said, Femi is my son, my friend and my reporter. He only wrote what he feels, not what he knows, I’m not angry with him. Prophecies can only be understood by those in the spirit, not an honorary deacon like Femi’’

‘’It’s not a new thing that a prophet gets criticized, prophets of old were hated, thrown to prison because their word of prophecy didn’t favour the leaders but we all know the end of it’’

‘’I can’t join issues with Femi Adesina, He is my son, He is only defending his paymasters but I will implore him to do proper investigation before laying further claims.’’

Meanwhile, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Osita Okechukwu, said reacted to a purported agreement signed between President Muhammadu Buhari and Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Former pioneer National Chairman of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Senator Rufai Hanga, had said that there was an agreement that President Buhari would hand over power to Tinubu in 2023.

In an interview with Daily Trust, Hanga claimed that the implied agreement signed in 2014, was the reason why Tinubu remained in APC after Buhari’s first term.

Reacting, Okechukwu stated that President Buhari hardly entered into any written agreement with people, expressing doubt over the claim made by Hanga.
