Oyo Group Accuses Primate Ayodele of Using Prophecies to Manipulate Politicians for Money
The Oyo State Voluntary Campaigners (OSVC) have accused Primate Elijah Ayodele of using his so-called prophecies to manipulate politicians for personal financial gain. The group was reacting to Ayodele’s latest prophecy, where he claimed that Minister of Power Adebayo Adelabu would not succeed in becoming the Governor of Oyo State in 2027 due to political challenges and rising tension in the state.
According to Ayodele, unrest is building in Oyo, with Muslims preparing for a major political shift and the Oke-Ogun region set to push back against Ibadan’s dominance—making it difficult for Adelabu to win. But OSVC isn’t buying it. In a statement signed by its chairman, Dr. Dele Atiba, the group described the Lagos-based cleric as a spiritual gambler who targets politicians in power with the hope of profiting from them.
They warned that Ayodele’s messages are nothing more than calculated attempts to get the attention of political figures and milk them financially. The group also pointed out inconsistencies in his past prophecies, such as claiming in 2022 that Bola Tinubu would lose the election, only to later endorse him for 2027.
Atiba said if Ayodele continues to spread what they described as blackmail disguised as prophecy, the group would not hesitate to take legal action and expose what they call evidence of manipulation and deceit. He urged the public to be cautious and not fall for what he termed “tricks” disguised as divine messages.
Catholics across Benue State came together on Thursday in a heartfelt prayer walk, seeking God’s help for peace to return to the troubled region. The walk, which drew large crowds from different parishes, was marked by hymns, placards, and quiet reflection. Priests, religious groups, and lay faithful joined in solidarity as they moved through the streets.
They also prayed for the victims of the recent violence, including those killed in the attack on Yelwata, Guma Local Government Area, where many lives were lost. Those who took part in the procession spoke out about the rising insecurity and called for healing, unity, and a renewed sense of justice in the state.
The recent surprise visit to Benue State by President Bola Tinubu has stirred many reactions from the public.
It was reported that some school children who were outside were urged to welcome the president under the rain.
It was also noted that what started as a simple welcome turned into a political rally for the President and the Governor of the state.
This gained many criticisms from the public, especially online, as they shared their thoughts on the visit and the welcome. Many highlighted the fact that it was meant to be a condolence visit and not a celebratory event.
It has been reported that President Bola Tinubu just arrived to Benue State amid the violence attacks happening.
It can be recalled that the state recently through a massacre as 200 lives were lost due to the violence attacks by armed people.
No solutions has been addresses to what will happen in Benue state, till now. President Tinubu arrives to Benue state, the people now hope for a solution to be given and justice to be served.
