Insecurity: How President Tinubu Is Following Primate Ayodele’s Directives Back-to-Back
When a strange event happens once or twice, one can describe it as a coincidence, but when it happens more than three times, it’s beyond a coincidence; it has become a habit or reality.
This is what best describes the decisions taken by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in ending insecurity in Nigeria and the spiritual directives that have been given by Primate Elijah Ayodele at different times about ending insecurity in the country.
It is no news that the security system of the country has deteriorated due to the influx of kidnapping events and bandit activities across the nation. For weeks, there have been several confirmed reports of kidnappings and killings, most especially in the northern part of the nation.
Among these activities are attacks on churches during service, abduction of pastors, students, and even military personnel. It’s been tough for the country of Nigeria.
Meanwhile, before the whole issue began, Primate Ayodele had said in the early days of Tinubu’s government that insecurity and ethnicity would be his major challenges. He also mentioned that kidnapping will be a major issue for the president. He had also revealed that America would be one of Tinubu’s major opponents, and right before our eyes, everything the prophet said is happening like a movie.
When the insecurity crisis began fully months ago, Primate Ayodele advised the president to change his service chiefs because it would put his government into crisis as they weren’t doing their jobs well. The prophet mentioned that the president has to let go of some of them.
These were his words:
“If they begin to kill soldiers, it means the Chief of Army Staff isn’t active. He should go and relax and allow an active person to take over. Even the CDS, too, isn’t active.
“Insecurity can vacate state governors from their positions, and I am seeing a state of emergency in some states already. In places like Benue, Abuja, Ondo, Adamawa, Kogi, Yobe, Plateau, Bauchi and some others, we need very active service chiefs to curb this crisis.”
Nigeria needs ‘active’ service chiefs – Primate Ayodele asks CDS, CAS, others to resign
In acknowledgement of the prophet’s directives, President Tinubu reshuffled his service chiefs at a time when nobody expected, dismissing the Chief Defence Staff, removing the Chief of Army Staff from his position and bringing in someone else to fill the position.
When the situation got more serious, Primate Ayodele advised the president to order the Nigerian Navy to carry out 24-hour surveillance in affected areas, just like it’s done during the election period. He encouraged the president to make the move to curb insecurity in the country.
These were his words:
“When there is insecurity everywhere will be in disarray; let the air run their aircraft in areas where we have problems. During elections, we see planes flying around; this should be done in those areas. The IGP, COAS, should relocate to these areas where we have problems….”
Resign if you you can’t secure Nigerians – Primate Ayodele hits Tinubu
Just a few days after he gave the directive, President Tinubu declared a national security emergency and ordered the Navy to ensure surveillance of the affected areas in the country.
Again, Primate Ayodele advised Tinubu to allow the creation of state, regional and local government police to help the security agencies with fighting banditry in the nation. Even though the government had not shown support for state policing, the prophet listed it as one of the solutions to bring insecurity to an end.
These were his words:
“President Tinubu should approve the creation of state police, federal police, and regional police; it will help to cushion the effect of insecurity in the country.
Security agencies should rise and focus more on security and the economy now. They need to take efforts to bring down bushes across Nigeria because that’s where they are hiding.”
Just within a few days after the prophet gave this advice, President Tinubu approved the creation of state police, while calling on the DSS to deploy forest guards to the bushes to send terrorists packing.
The prophet’s most recent statement, which was shared last week during a live service in his church, was regarding the minister of defence and the security situation of the country. Primate Ayodele called on Tinubu to change the defence minister because it is only a military person who deserves to be there.
He then asked the president to call back former generals and specifically mentioned Musa Christopher, the former CDS, to form part of his security advisers, and let go of politicians from such sensitive positions
“Call Musa Christopher to form a team of ex-generals that will be giving advice. Those who have been in the service before have met with them, drawn from their advice, and will help your government. Make a military person the minister of defence, don’t put someone who doesn’t understand the terrain, don’t make a politician the minister of defence, put an ex-general there.”

Just as Primate Ayodele said, the Minister of Defence announced his resignation yesterday due to ‘health grounds’ even though reports have it that he was asked to resign by the president. In the same breath, the former CDS, Christopher Musa, met with President Tinubu yesterday and has now been nominated as the new minister of defence, as Primate Ayodele advised.
These events have highlighted the importance of having prophets like Primate Elijah Ayodele and listening to their advice because God speaks through them. It’s commendable that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu listens to God’s servant, and we can tell by all indications that if everything the prophet advises is followed to the end, insecurity will be forgotten in the nation.

We, the Royal Families and Indigenous Egba Settlers of Abule Egba, wish to state clearly and unequivocally that we do not want any crisis or unrest in Abule Egba, Lagos.
Our community has enjoyed peace for centuries, and we are committed to preserving that legacy.
It has come to our attention that Mr. Aliu Abiodun Abdul-Salam has been parading himself as the Baale of Abule Egba and falsely presenting Abule Egba as Awori land.
We strongly emphasize that there is nothing like “Awori land” in Abule Egba, and we urge the general public to disregard such misleading claims.
AUTHENTIC TRADITIONAL LEADERSHIP
The legitimate and recognized Baale of Abule Egba remains Chief Gabriel Sunday Omotosho, who is alive, active, and performing his duties.
Any attempt by any individual to usurp this respected traditional stool is unlawful, misleading, and capable of causing community unrest.
HISTORICAL FACTS AND ROYAL LINEAGE
Abule Egba is historically an Egba settlement, with the Baaki Adedipe Royal Family among the first settlers who have lived peacefully for centuries alongside other ruling houses and customary tenants.
We restate that:
There is nothing like an Osunbiyi Royal Family in Abule Egba.
Abule Egba is Egba land, fully backed by historical records and archival evidence.
Awori land claims in Abule Egba are false, misleading, and historically inaccurate.
As stated by Kazeem Adedipe of the Baaki Adedipe Royal House,
“We do not want what has happened in other places concerning chieftaincy and land issues to happen in Abule Egba.”
CALL TO GOVERNMENT AND SECURITY AGENCIES
We hereby call the attention of:
The Executive Chairman of Agbado/Oke-Odo LCDA, Hon. Abiodun Ejigbadero
The Governor of Lagos State, His Excellency Babajide Sanwo-Olu
The Lagos State Commissioner of Police
The Area Commander, Area P
The DPO, Oke Odo Division to urgently intervene and call Mr. Aliu Abiodun Abdul-Salam to order.
He should immediately stop parading himself as the Baale of Abule Egba and desist from issuing or planning any chieftaincy titles within the community.
If he desires to become a Baale, he should return to his own village, not attempt to impose himself on our land.
CONCLUSION
For peace to continue to reign in Abule Egba:
Traditional structures must be respected.
False claims must stop.
The community must remain to united under its legitimate traditional leadership.
We remain committed to protecting the heritage of Egba people, the ruling families, and the historical truth of Abule Egba.
