An Explainer Of Primate Ayodele’s Prophecies On US Presidential Election

 

Following the emergence of Donald Trump as winner of the US Presidential election, many have shown their misunderstanding of Primate Ayodele’s prophecies hereby saying he missed the mark with his prophecy regarding the election.

An Explainer Of Primate Ayodele’s Prophecies On US Presidential Election

The prophecy which is being described as a miss was shared by Primate Ayodele on September 29. The prophet said Trump would lose if election was conducted on that day.

These were his words

”If there is an election today, Trump will not win, he will lose. Kamala Harris will shock the world, her policies will be better than Trump’s.

“Trump will be another disaster for the world and if there is an election today, he will fail. If he loses this election, he would want to create a kind of protest to instigate people, he must be careful.’’

Grammatically, this statement isn’t so ambiguous that it would be misunderstood by anyone who has primary knowledge of the English language. The simple explanation is that if an election was held on September 29, Trump would lose the election. It didn’t mean that if an election was held later after that date, it would remain the same; it’s not difficult to understand at all.

It would have been different if Primate Ayodele hadn’t given further updates and clarifications about this prophecy. He had shared prophecies before and after that statement regarding the US presidential election but probably due to laziness or an intentional move to smear the name of the prophet, the writer became blind towards other prophecies and dwelt more on the one he didn’t even understand.

In a video shared at a later date before the election, Primate Ayodele specifically warned Kamala Harris to be careful of Donald Trump and mentioned five states she should work on if she wanted to win the election.

“Kamala Harris listen to me now, you will lose this election if you are not careful enough, you are not doing well in your strongholds, they will knock you out at the electoral college. If you don’t want to lose, you have to work very well on your strongholds. If you are waiting to take from where Trump has, it may be difficult for you. Work very well to have a landslide in your strongholds. Don’t think that the way Trump is doing they won’t vote for him, don’t say that. For you to win this election, you must work very well on your strongholds and these five states; Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and California. If you don’t, it will be very difficult for you.”

Meanwhile, Primate Ayodele, in a prophecy before Kamala Harris became the candidate of the Democratic party, shared that she would have problems in some states he mentioned, and advised her on what to do to win the election.

“Kamala Harris will be nominated as the Democratic candidate, which will change the face of politics in America. During the general election, she will face challenges in states such as Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Ohio, and Michigan. Just as I advised Hillary Clinton to concentrate on these states, Kamala Harris should do the same if she wants to win.”

From the foregoing, it’s important to note that picking just one prophecy out of about five prophecies Primate Ayodele made on the US Presidential election to push an agenda that the prophet missed is wrong and uncalled for. God knows for how long the writer has been waiting for Primate Ayodele to make a prophetic mistake but even this isn’t a mistake, it’s purely an intentional misunderstanding from the writer, and, sadly, journalism has been reduced to a propaganda tool in the hands of some practitioners.

By now, people should have gotten used to how prophecy works and how Primate Ayodele shares his prophecies. Primate Ayodele won’t say someone would lose and another would win without talking about how it will happen, either loss or victory. We need to understand that God loves everyone and it is not his wish that any negative thing happens to a candidate, however, he can warn both candidates and whoever follows ends up winning. It’s that simple.

Primate Ayodele said Kamala Harris would win the election if she could secure her strongholds and win five states which he mentioned but she lost some of her strongholds and out of the five states he mentioned, Harris won only one. What magic should have happened?

For Donald Trump, Primate Ayodele said he would lose if the election was held in September and this may have even inspired him to do more before the election finally held. We all saw the last-minute trick Donald Trump pulled; going to meet people personally, driving a garbage truck, going to McDonalds to serve fries, and several other gimmicks he employed to strengthen his base, what was Kamala Harris expecting?

Even in the bible, the blessing that was supposed to be gotten by Esau went to Jacob by strategy and gimmick. Esau was Isaac’s favourite and when he was about to die wanted to bless his favourite son but Jacob ‘stole’ that significant moment to receive the blessing instead. Hence, victory isn’t reserved for anyone, faith without work is death, Kamala Harris failed in the states Primate Ayodele warned her to work seriously and she lost, it’s simple.

Taking further clues from the bible, God sent Prophet Jonah to Nineveh to tell them the city would be destroyed in 40 days but after seeing their efforts at making things right, God himself told Jonah that he wouldn’t destroy the city any longer. As at the first time Jonah spoke, the city was to be destroyed but later on, the city was rescued. Would we now say Jonah missed it because what he initially said didn’t happen?

God sent a prophet to Hezekiah to inform him that he was going to die, and the prophet obeyed and delivered his message. However, after Hezekiah prayed to God, the prophet returned to say God had added 15 more years to his age. Did the prophet miss it?

Before we castigate prophets and men of God, there is a need for us to consider so many things and conduct due diligence. In this case, a simple analysis of English language, and the other prophecies of Primate Ayodele would have helped the writer understand better. Anyways, this is another failed attempt to smear Primate Ayodele’s name.

Receiving the award personally at his residence in Abeokuta, Senator Amosun emphasized that legacy and service should outweigh the pursuit of recognition. He commended the organizers for promoting local achievements but noted that true leadership lies in quiet, impactful service rather than self-promotion.

 

 

 

“I’ve never been the type to chase awards or honors,” he said. “If you’re in a position of authority or leadership, just do your work. That’s what you’re there for. Let the impact speak for itself.”

 

 

 

Referencing historical figures such as Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Sir Ahmadu Bello, and Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, Amosun remarked that their legacies endure not because of awards, but because of the depth of their contributions. While he acknowledged the motivational power of recognition, he reiterated that real reward lies in meaningful impact.

 

 

 

Senator Amosun praised the Abeokuta Film Festival as a vital cultural platform and called for its expansion across Ogun State and the Southwest region. He proposed greater collaboration and suggested a regional brand identity such as “KAARO OJIRE,” which he said could showcase the diversity of languages and stories from the area.

 

 

 

Pledging continued support for the initiative, he assured the organizers of his availability whenever needed. “Even without this award, I’ve always been ready to contribute. Now, with this recognition, I’m even more inspired to do more,” he stated.

 

 

 

In conclusion, he dedicated the award to the pioneers and legends of Nigeria’s film industry, including Hubert Ogunde and Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, whose timeless contributions, he said, continue to inspire generations.

 

 

 

Among those who were on the entourage to do the honour was the National President, Association of Nigerian Theatre Practitioners, Popular Nollywood Actor, Dr. Hafiz Oyetoro, Popularly known as Saka, and Convener, Abeokuta Film Festival, Hon. Kehinde Soaga (dgn)

Nigeria Under Siege: The Tyranny of Tinubu, Wike & Akpabio ( Opinion)

Nigeria Under Siege: The Tyranny of Tinubu, Wike & Akpabio (Opinion) 

By George Omagbemi Sylvester | Published by SaharaWeeklyNG.com

Nigeria, once a beacon of federalism and popular sovereignty in post-colonial Africa, is now in the throes of political tyranny dressed in democratic garb. The core ideals upon which the republic was built (separation of powers, representative governance and respect for the people’s mandate) are being dismantled by an unholy trium-virate led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Senate President Godswill Akpabio and FCT Minister Nyesom Wike. These three men have arrogated to themselves the powers of gods over Nigeria’s democratic structures. Their coordinated assaults on constitutional order have turned our democratic institutions into empty vessels echoing only the whims of political overlords.

The suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan is a glaring example of how dissent is punished and whistle-blowers are silenced. A sitting female senator, representing Kogi Central, courageously alleged sexual harassment against Senate President Akpabio; accusing him of making improper advances and suggesting that her legislative motion would only be considered if she “took care” of him. Days later, under the pretense of unrelated “unruly behavior,” she was suspended without pay for six months and stripped of her committee chairmanship. This was no coincidence; it was calculated political retribution. Women’s rights groups across Nigeria (mobilized under the banner “We Are All Natasha”) condemned the Senate’s actions as an assault on gender equity and democratic voice. Her fate was not decided by her peers or due process; it was enforced by Akpabio and his loyalists to send a message: dissent will be punished.

That same authoritarian template unfolded in Rivers State in March 2025. Under a dubious emergency declaration, President Tinubu suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy Ngozi Odu and the entire Rivers State House of Assembly. He then installed a retired naval officer, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas (rtd), as the state’s sole administrator. It was only the third time such a radical measure had been used since 1999 and its timing was suspect. Ostensibly a response to pipeline vandalism and political infighting, it was widely seen as a power grab engineered by Tinubu and Wike to neutralize a defiant governor who refused to become another puppet in Abuja’s gallery.

Civil society icon Celestine Akpobari likened the move to “using a sledgehammer to kill a mosquito,” condemning it as unconstitutional and vindictive. The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) joined the chorus of legal voices, stating unequivocally that emergency rule does not justify the removal of elected officials. But the Tinubu government, backed by Akpabio’s Senate, bulldozed ahead; reportedly aided by Wike, who allegedly funneled over $3 million in bribes to senators to support the declaration. Key senators were wined and dined in covert meetings and Iftar sessions, where dollars reportedly flowed in exchange for silence or support. To avoid scrutiny, debate on the President’s emergency letter was delayed until attendance was low; ensuring minimum resistance and maximum control.

Fubara, cornered and politically isolated, was coerced into a Faustian bargain. Tinubu reportedly agreed to reinstate him on the condition that he abandon any plans to run for re¬election in 2027 and hand over control of all 23 local government chairmanships to Wike. It was less a political compromise than a surrender of democratic legitimacy. Wike later bragged publicly, saying: “I wanted the outright removal of Governor Fubara… The president saved Fubara… people should be praising him.” His statement, laced with arrogance, exemplified the disdain this ruling clique has for democratic norms.

The Lagos State Assembly saga added another layer to the crisis. In January 2025, lawmakers impeached Speaker Mudashiru Obasa for alleged abuse of office and replaced him with Mojisola Meranda; Lagos’s first female speaker. Yet, within 49 days, Meranda was forced to resign and Obasa was reinstated, not through legislative consensus but by presidential order. Tinubu summoned the lawmakers to Abuja, overrode a reconciliation panel’s recommendations and reinstalled his loyalist. The president even directed Obasa to drop his lawsuit, showcasing the executive’s total control over supposedly autonomous legislative processes. Even within the APC, members of the Governance Advisory Council expressed discomfort, underscoring the lack of transparency and due process.

In Edo State, the 2024 gubernatorial election was presented to Nigerians as a legitimate victory for Monday Okpebholo of the APC, who defeated PDP’s Asue Ighodalo by roughly 44,000 votes. The result, though legally affirmed by INEC and the Election Tribunal, was tainted by widespread reports of primary coercion, imposed delegates and predetermined outcomes. Local voices decried the election not as a product of popular will but as a coronation engineered in Abuja, with Tinubu and Wike reportedly influencing the internal party process to ensure their loyalist emerged. Edo’s political landscape was shaped not by the people but by the dictates of political godfathers.

When these events are viewed collectively, a clear and disturbing pattern emerges: a SYSTEMIC SUBVERSION of DEMOCRACY through EXECUTIVE OVERREACH, LEGISLATIVE BULLYING, ELECTORAL MANIPULATION and TARGETED INTIMIDATION.

Akpabio’s Senate serves less as a check on the executive and more as an enforcement arm of Tinubu’s whims. Rivers State was effectively under a political siege, reduced to a bargaining chip between a federal president and his power-hungry minister. Lagos lawmakers were reduced to pawns, their votes overridden by a presidential edict. Edo’s democratic future was hijacked at the primary level by a script written far from Benin City.

This is not the vision Nigeria’s constitution upholds. This is not the democracy Nigerians voted for. What we are witnessing is the enthronement of a de facto monarchy; a triumvirate where Tinubu, Wike and Akpabio assume the roles of EMPEROR, ENFORCER and PRIEST. Together, they are eroding the sanctity of our institutions and silencing voices that dare speak truth to power.

The fallout is far-reaching. Prominent voices have raised the alarm. Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan courageously declared: “This was orchestrated to silence my voice… That action is an assault on democracy. I am not apologising for speaking my truth.” Civil society actors have warned that Nigeria is descending into authoritarianism masked by constitutional rhetoric. Dele Olojede, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, aptly captured the crisis: “We are casually getting rid of the entire state government and overriding the will of the electorate.” The Nigerian Bar Association has warned that the misuse of emergency powers could spark a constitutional crisis.

To borrow the unflinching words of Thomas Jefferson: “When the people fear the government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.” Nigerians today are ruled by a political caste that no longer fears accountability. This triumvirate of Tinubu, Wike and Akpabio has made tyranny fashionable by dressing it in agbada and wrapping it in the language of democracy. At this perilous juncture, reclaiming the republic is not merely a political duty; it is a moral and generational imperative. Civil society must RISE. Religious leaders must SPEAK. The youth must ORGANIZE. The opposition must RESIST. We must collectively reject a political order in which the will of three men overrides the voice of 200 million citizens.

Power belongs not to a cabal of self-declared gods but to the people. If democracy is to survive in Nigeria, she must be wrestled back from those who would rule by decree, not by consent. This is not a time for timid appeals or polite protests. This is the time for uncompromising patriotism and unwavering resistance.

The republic is under siege. It is time to reclaim it.
