Primate Ayodele’s Prophetic Declaration And The Success Of Nigeria’s Flying Eagles At U-20 AFCON
The U-20 national team of Nigeria otherwise known as the flying eagles has recorded massive success at the ongoing African Cup Of Nations (AFCON) in Egypt.
Just yesterday, the team defeated Uganda to qualify for the quarter-finals of the tournament. This is definitely a sign of a new dawn in Nigeria’s football after discouraging records in the world cup and AFCON.
This is definitely not unconnected to the prophetic impact of Primate Elijah Ayodele who has publicly declared his love and support for the football federation. Though the man of God has been a lover of the country’s football, he became more vocal about it months before the NFF election that produced Ibrahim Gusau as president.
When asked about his statements on the election, the man of God simply made it known that the NFF cannot afford to have a president that doesn’t have God’s backing and that as a prophet, he has the responsibility to let the people know the right choice.
In all his statements, Primate Ayodele mentioned Gusau as the one God wants for the position and that was exactly what happened. He mentioned then that if Gusau becomes the president, the country’s football will record success and that the flying eagles can lift the ongoing AFCON.
To further prove his love for the football federation, the man of God visited Gusau in his Abuja office in December when he emerged as the president of NFF in order to pray for him and his team for success in their tenure. During his visit, Primate Ayodele told Gusau that it is possible for Nigeria to win AFCON 2023 as long as everything is committed into God’s hands.
“Nigeria must come home with the next AFCON, we are going to Egypt too next year to ensure that we win the cup. Let’s do it with love and fairness. We need to commit our football in the hands of God for us to excel.”
Just as the man of God has declared, the flying eagles are doing greatly in Egypt and are just a few steps away from clinching the cup. Of a truth, the impact of Primate Ayodele’s prophetic declaration on their success cannot be underestimated.
