PEPT: Atiku, Peter Obi Suffering Unnecessarily For Ignoring Primate Ayodele’s Warnings
PEPT: Atiku, Peter Obi Suffering Unnecessarily For Ignoring Primate Ayodele’s Warnings
By John Akinpelu
The presidential election tribunal that held yesterday affirmed the victory of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the election which has been described as fraudulent by the opposition.
The opposing parties, PDP’s Abubakar Atiku and LP’s Peter Obi had expressed hope and expected the court to disqualify Tinubu or order a rerun of the election but they were greatly embarrassed when the Judge struck out every petition they submitted against the victory of the APC candidate.
The court held that their statements were not factual but generic and of course, the court will not entertain any form of generic statements that lacked substance to form a judgment. In the end, they were fined a huge amount of money for presenting an embarrassing case.
Sadly, they both brought this woe upon themselves intentionally for choosing to ignore the prophetic warning of Primate Elijah Ayodele, a Nigerian prophet who warned them against going into the polls divided.
Primate Ayodele has been talking about the 2023 presidential election since 2021 and has maintained that God doesn’t want another APC government in power but if the opposition fail to come together, they will lose the election to the ruling party.
When Peter Obi became a force to reckon with and even when men of God like Pastor Paul Eneche and Bishop David Oyedepo openly endorsed his candidacy and went as far as praying for him on their exalted alters, Primate Ayodele was that prophet who stood firmly and described the politician as a noise maker. The prophet stated in July 2022 that Peter Obi is only making noise and that those supporting him will leave hjm at the end because he won’t be able to get anything tangible from the election.
These were his words
“Peter Obi is a noise maker; he can’t make a single difference. Saying Obi will win the election is zero”. (https://dailypost.ng/2022/07/09/2023-youre-noisemakers-cant-win-presidency-primate-ayodele-tells-peter-obi-kwankwaso/)
This statement featured on several digital platforms but instead of listening, Peter Obi’s followers started lashing out at Primate Ayodele, calling him a fake prophet and saying that they will win the presidential election. Where has that gotten them now?
At a later date, Primate Ayodele warned Peter Obi again asking him not to rely on the crowd he sees but work seriously on the election technicality. The prophet advised Obi to work on results and not reports if he wants to win the election.
These were his words
‘’Obi should not work on the crowd alone, he should work on the election technicality. He doesn’t really need to work on reports but results. He should be more diplomatic and technical. He will understand what I am saying.’’
“If he wants to win, he must take his focus from the crowd and work seriously on the election technically.” (https://punchng.com/how-obi-can-win-presidential-election-primate-ayodele/)
Unfortunately for Peter Obi and the Labour party movement, they allowed the crowd to get into their head and make them believe that’s all they needed for election victory but they were disappointed and came third in the election. Also, the court dismissed their petitions on TECHNICALITY grounds yesterday, this echoes the prophetic warning of Primate Ayodele.
Till January 2023, Primate Ayodele still warned Peter Obi not to be carried away by the support of the youths because they won’t come out to vote for him. He requested that he work well especially in the northern parts of the country if he wants to win.
These were his words
“Majority of the youths clamouring for him will not come out to vote; he should still work very well on those that have PVC and can vote for him. Let him sensitize them well on the PVC, otherwise, not all the youths following him will vote for him.” (https://dailypost.ng/2023/01/29/primate-ayodele-tells-tinubu-atiku-peter-obi-what-to-do/)
Just as the man of God warned, the youths failed Peter Obi because they didn’t come out as expected. The total number of voters isn’t up 50% of the youth population across the country. As Primate Ayodele feared for him, they only clamoured for Obi’s victory but didn’t vote for him.
For the presidential candidate of PDP, Abubakar Atiku, although Primate Ayodele mentioned that He was God’s choice for the country but he gave him some instructions to follow but just like his counterpart, He failed to listen.
Primate Ayodele’s prophetic warnings to Atiku dates back to the days Wike’s issue started in the party. He warned the presidential candidate not to allow the former Rivers state governor drop his support for the party because it will jeopardize his chances at victory.
These were his words
“PDP should not allow Wike to leave because if he leaves, the chances of the party in the presidential election will be jeopardized. What Wike is dragging can cause PDP so much that Atiku should try to adjust, and this is not about dominating.
“He should try and make peace work in the party. Only peace and the presence of some important people can give the party victory. Wike leaving PDP will dent the victory of Atiku because other important members of the party will leave with him, and it will make the election tougher for the party.
‘’If PDP does not settle its crisis, the party will go into oblivion after 2023; Atiku should consult God, technocrats, and those that love him; otherwise, this Wike’s crisis can sink PDP. (https://dailypost.ng/2022/09/04/atiku-vs-wike-pdpll-lose-presidency-sink-into-oblivion-if-rivers-gov-leaves-primate-ayodele/)
He warned Atiku again later to settle with the G-5 governors in order to win at the presidential election but the politician never listened, rather, he reinforced the battle between him and the governors.
“He can turn whatever is bad in Wike to good. He shouldn’t ignore these five governors because their annoyance can jeopardize his victory.
“He needs to re-strategize. He should ignore whoever asks him to neglect the governors.’’ (https://dailypost.ng/2022/11/27/2023-humble-yourself-settle-with-g-5-govs-primate-ayodele-warns-atiku/)
Pitifully, Atiku’s chances were jeopardized in states controlled by the aggrieved governors. Several states that were traditionally won by the PDP were lost to Labour Party and APC for the first time. If Atiku had these states, he could have won the election but unfortunately, his obstinacy led to him losing gallantly.
Apart from individually, Primate Ayodele warned the opposition parties collectively towards the election. He warned them of the gimmicks the ruling party will employ and stressed the need for them to be united and stay prepared. One of the things he told them was that APC was ready to win the election by every legal and illegal means and it will only take a prepared and united opposition to defeat the ruling party.
’’APC wants to win the 2023 presidential election by all means; technically, spiritually, financially, legally, illegally, psychologically, religiously and everything possible in order to get victory. They are ready to spend whatever it will cost to get the victory, they are very desperate to win the election. They don’t care whatever happens, they want to win at all costs.
‘’The party has gone into agreement with the metaphysical, if Peter Obi and Atiku sleep, they will just take it and if that happens, it will be a tougher time for Nigeria. Another APC government is equals to economic kwashiorkor, this is what I have seen. (https://independent.ng/2023-election-apc-desperate-to-win-at-any-cost-primate-ayodele-warns-obi-atiku/#google_vignette)
Primate Ayodele went as far as telling the opposition that Tinubu’s famous word ‘Emilokan’ has a spiritual backing and that if they want to stop the word from coming to pass, they should attack it but nothing was done.
‘’The word ‘Emilokan’ is very spiritual, don’t take Tinubu for a joke with this word. ‘Emilokan’ should wake up the PDP and Labour party from sleeping. The word is more spiritual than physical. If you don’t want Tinubu to win, attack ‘Emilokan.’’
‘’PDP and Labour party should seek for the spiritual meaning of Emilokan, it’s a mysterious statement that Nigerians are joking with, it is not a joke, it is not proverbial.’’ (https://dailypost.ng/2023/01/31/emilokan-has-spiritual-meaning-dont-joke-with-tinubu-primate-ayodele/)
With these warnings unattended to, Atiku and Peter Obi felt they can remove President Tinubu at the court but their hopes were dashed yesterday. Primate Ayodele had already said nothing much will come out from the election petition, it didn’t come as a surprise that it happened.
The warnings were there but they failed to listen. If they had listened, it wouldn’t have gotten to this stage for the opposition parties. It’s unfortunate but they are suffering unnecessarily for ignoring the prophecies of God’s servant, Primate Ayodele.

APC Group Endorses Fubara for 2027, Calls on Tinubu and APC to Prioritise Performance Over Politics in Backing Governor’s Second Term Ambition
*APC Group Endorses Fubara for 2027, Calls on Tinubu and APC to Prioritise Performance Over Politics in Backing Governor’s Second Term Ambition*
The APC National Vanguard has appealed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to support a second term in office for Siminalayi Fubara, citing what it described as “impressive and verifiable developmental strides” across Rivers State.
In a statement issued on Thursday by its National President, Dr Gbenga Salam (JP), the group said its position followed an extensive assessment tour of key infrastructure and public service projects executed under the Fubara administration.
The APC National Vanguard said the appeal was based strictly on performance, arguing that governance outcomes should outweigh partisan considerations, particularly in a state as economically significant as Rivers.
“We respectfully urge President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the leadership of the All Progressives Congress to support the continuity of Governor Siminalayi Fubara beyond his current tenure, in recognition of his commitment to development, prudent resource management, and people-focused governance,” the statement read.
According to the group, its delegation visited multiple project sites across the state, observing ongoing and completed works spanning road construction, urban renewal, and public infrastructure upgrades.
It noted that the scale and distribution of these projects reflect a deliberate effort by the state government to extend development beyond traditional urban centres and into underserved communities.
“Our findings from the tour reveal a government that is not only active but intentional in its development agenda. The execution of capital projects across various parts of Rivers State demonstrates a clear understanding of the needs of the people and a commitment to addressing them,” Dr Salam said.
The group particularly commended what it described as prudent financial management by the administration, noting that the projects reviewed showed evidence of careful planning and efficient allocation of resources.
“At a time when economic pressures are evident across the country, it is commendable that the Rivers State government has managed its resources in a way that delivers visible and impactful development without signs of fiscal recklessness,” the statement added.
The APC National Vanguard further observed that despite political tensions in the state, the Fubara administration has maintained focus on governance, ensuring continuity in project execution and service delivery.
The group argued that such stability is critical for sustained development and should be encouraged rather than disrupted.
“Leadership must ultimately be judged by results. In Rivers State, there is clear evidence of progress—projects that are not only announced but executed, and policies that translate into real benefits for citizens,” Dr Salam noted.
The group warned that discontinuity in leadership could stall ongoing projects and reverse gains already recorded, stressing the importance of allowing a performing administration to consolidate its achievements.
“Rivers State is at a pivotal stage where continuity will allow for the completion of ongoing initiatives and the deepening of development gains. Supporting Governor Fubara for a second term is, therefore, a decision in the best interest of the people,” the statement said.
In addition to its call on the APC leadership, the group reaffirmed its support for President Tinubu, expressing confidence in his administration’s broader economic and governance reforms.
The APC group urged Nigerians to remain supportive of efforts aimed at stabilising the economy and strengthening public institutions.
“We reiterate our endorsement of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for a second term in office, in recognition of his leadership and commitment to national development. With sustained support, the administration can consolidate its reform agenda for the benefit of all Nigerians,” Dr Salam added.
The APC National Vanguard concluded by calling on political actors to prioritise development and public interest over partisan divides, insisting that governance should always be guided by performance and accountability.
“Where leadership demonstrates prudence, delivers development, and remains focused on the welfare of the people, it deserves continuity. This is the position we have reached after a careful and independent assessment of Rivers State,” the statement added.
*Renewed Hope Ambassadors Step Into the Next Phase
Fresh from the successful APC 2026 National Convention, the Renewed Hope Ambassadors National, Zonal, and State leadership gathered in Abuja over the weekend, for its fourth strategic meeting, setting the tone for nationwide grassroots activation ahead of 2027.
Chaired by Governor Hope Uzodinma (Imo State) the Director General and National Coordinator of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors, alongside Deputy Director-General, Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State, and Governor Inuwa Yahaya of Gombe State as Secretary, the session reinforced one clear direction: One Party. One Message. One Mobilization whilst also laying out a strategic roadmap for the activation of the network across all communities in Nigeria.
Backed by the strength of 31 APC-led states, the Renewed Hope Agenda is taking Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s message of progress and reform to every corner of Nigeria.
From bold economic restructuring to initiatives like NELFUND, the increase in the national minimum wage from ₦30,000 to ₦70,000, and strategic investments in critical sectors, including PNiCGI, the mission remains clear: helping Nigerians understand both the purpose and the progress of the Renewed Hope vision.
This is coordination at scale. This is grassroots engagement with purpose. This is the next phase of Renewed Hope with One Party, One Message, and One Mobilisation framework
