The spiritual leader and founder of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has issued a new prophetic warning regarding the political future of Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde. The respected cleric, known for his accurate prophecies on national and international affairs, revealed that the governor risks facing rejection, betrayal, and political humiliation in the next election if urgent spiritual and strategic steps are not taken.
Speaking during a live service at his Lagos church, Primate Ayodele stated that Governor Makinde’s political journey is heading toward turbulence due to spiritual neglect, internal disloyalty, and leadership missteps. He cautioned that despite the governor’s achievements in governance, the coming political season may turn against him.
“Seyi Makinde will be disgraced in the coming election. He will be rejected by the same people who once celebrated him,” Primate Ayodele declared. “He needs to seek God sincerely and make the right political decisions, or the storm that is coming will overwhelm him.”
The man of God explained that the challenges surrounding Makinde’s future are not purely political but also spiritual, warning that unseen forces and internal betrayal could play a key role in his possible downfall. According to Ayodele, some individuals within Makinde’s circle are already plotting against him, and if not handled wisely, it may cost him his political standing.
While acknowledging the governor’s commendable record in areas like infrastructure, education, and social development, the prophet maintained that performance alone cannot sustain leadership without spiritual alignment and humility.
“Good works alone will not save him,” Primate Ayodele emphasized. “He must not rely on popularity or power; he needs divine direction. Pride and overconfidence will lead to his political destruction.”
He urged the governor to stay connected to the people who gave him the mandate and avoid political isolation or arrogance, which often leads to estrangement from loyal supporters. The prophet further advised him to rebuild trust, remain prayerful, and realign his political strategy ahead of the next election.
This revelation comes amid growing political tension and internal discontent within the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State. Analysts suggest that Primate Ayodele’s prophecy mirrors the uncertainty already brewing within the governor’s political base, as different factions position themselves for future contests.
Primate Ayodele’s track record of accurate prophecies ranging from national elections to international political shifts has made his messages subjects of intense public debate. Many Nigerians recall his earlier prophecies that came to pass regarding Nigeria’s leadership changes, global conflicts, and economic developments.
As Oyo State heads toward another crucial election cycle, the prophecy has reignited conversations about the fragile nature of political power and the need for leaders to stay spiritually and morally grounded.
The coming months will reveal whether Governor Makinde takes heed of the divine warning or continues on his current path as political uncertainty looms over his administration.
