WHY PRIMATE AYODELE CAN’T BE FRIENDS WITH OTHER TOP MEN OF GOD
WHY PRIMATE AYODELE CAN’T BE FRIENDS WITH OTHER TOP MEN OF GOD
A lot has been written about Primate Ayodele Elijah, the founder and leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church. A lot has been said about him. If truth be told, there is probably no man of God who has made the headlines in recent times as much as Primate Ayodele did. He is always in the news, releasing astonishing prophecies or showing claims of prophecies that have just come to fulfillment. And at other times, the man is speaking truth to power, telling our leaders what they’re doing wrong and the consequences of their actions or inactions on the populace. Whenever the government has taken action or implemented a policy that he fears may be unfavourable to the citizenry,
WHY PRIMATE AYODELE CAN’T BE FRIENDS WITH OTHER TOP MEN OF GOD
Primate Ayodele is one of the first few people to speak out against such policies or action. Most times, while trying to fight for the masses, Primate Ayodele often critcizes the government with such intensity and passion that sometimes make you wonder if he is not taking things a little personal with our leaders. He gets emotional about these issues sometimes and says out of anger things that make you afraid for his own safety. But the truth is it’s nothing personal, that’s simply how deeply concerned and worried Primate Ayodele is about the plight of the less privileged.
Many may have been wondering why Primate Ayodele has not been seen in company of some prominent men of God like himself. Many wonder why he has not joined the long list of prophets and men of God who, for years running, have been making regular visits to Aso Rock to wine and dine with our leaders when the Nigerian masses that depend on them to speak truth to power are languishing in penury. The answer is obvious – Primate Ayodele does not frolick with men of God who do not have the interest of the masses at heart. If, as a man of God, you want to really annoy Primate Ayodele, just begin to flaunt your wealth at your congregation or the general public and you will instantly incur the wrath of this great man of God. He dislikes with a passion men of God who do not use their wealth and God given resources to help the needy around them and the society at large. Indeed, some of these men of God who run massive churches and boast of humongous congregations actually bully their church members with their wealth, flaunting before them their multi million naira exotic cars and expensive gold wrist watches and designer outfits. This is exactly what Primate Ayodele despises and one of the reasons why he cannot be seen in any form of fraternity with these flambuoyant men of God who have been consumed by all the vanities of life. While Primate Ayodele is driven more by his love for the masses as evident in his phenomenal philanthropy, most of these other prominent men of God are driven more by love for money and hunger for recognition by the government. Let us call a spade a spade, Primate Ayodele and these so called men of God have nothing in common, they cannot be friends. They cannot understand the depth of Primate Ayodele’s compassion when it comes to showing concern about the plight of the man on the street.
In the last few weeks alone, starting from the month of February, Primate Ayodele, embarked on what can only be described as super mega philanthropy. It is something unprecedented in Christendom. No Pastor, no man of God has ever done this before. Many will recall that this extremely humble and unassuming man of God had a palliative market late last year that shook the entire nation. Many women from far and near thronged Oke-Afa where Primate Ayodele’s Church, INRI Evangelical Spiritual church is located to benefit from the large heart of this incredible man of God who took it upon himself to help the needy cushion the biting effect of the economic hardship that was triggered by the removal of the fuel subsidy. There were hundreds of different food items in large volumes on sale at incredibly low prices. Primate Ayodele slashed down the prices of many expensive food items such as rice which was selling at N70,000 at the time but sold at N20,000 per bag. The women couldn’t believe their luck. They were all full of prayers for the renowned man of God. But the second Palliative market held last month February 14 was even bigger and more astonishing. Women who had heard of the first Palliative market stormed the venue of the second edition of the Palliative market. And this time, the prices were slashed beyond imagination. Imagine a bag of rice sold in the market at N80,000 was sold for N20,000, a bag of beans was sold for N2,000, tubers of yam were sold for N1,500, a bag of Semovita was sold for N1,500, garri was sold for N3,000, a carton of Indomie sold for N1,500, wheat was sold for N2,000 and many more.
Not done yet, Primate Ayodele gave out monetry gifts to different people to empower them. He handed a cheque of N700,000 to support a young growing ministry. Others got N500,000 to support their businesses while several others got endowment funds to support their education. JAMB and WAEC forms were paid for to support less privileged children who are desirous of going to school, while the aged and the widows too were not left out of empowerment support of various kinds. But the high point of the day was when Primate Ayodele gave about five cars to different people including this writer. Indeed, after giving out the 5 cars, he gave out more cars in the days that followed. It is needless to remind anyone of the price of the smallest brand of cars in the market in this inflation driven economy.
He has also commissioned a healthcare facility where medical care will be given to the. Community at very little cost. It is expected to be an ultra modern health care facility. The prominent man of God also commissioned a bakery where bread of different sizes will be sold at unbelievably cheap prices.
How many men of God can do this for those around them? How many of them do actually feel the pain of the masses like Primate Ayodele does? How many do share in his spirit of giving and can show compassion the way he does? It must be very few, and we are yet to see those few. Just like they say, you cannot give what you don’t have. And once you don’t have this passion for philanthropy burning in you as a man of God, then you cannot be Primate Ayodele’s friend. The minute he discovers you’re a vain man of God who does nothing but bully people with his wealth, he will move far away from you. As far as he is concerned, there is no meeting point between both of you. You are extremely stingy, he is an incurable giver. You are an oppressor, he is a fighter of the masses. You are darkness, he is light. So, how can these two different individuals with totally contrasting personalities be friends? This is also one of the reasons why Primate Ayodele has chosen to stay away fron CAN and PFN. He believes they do not share in his ideologies and he does not agree with theirs either.
Clearly, for those wondering why Primate Ayodele does not frolick with other men of God, let us be honest, can a man like this have the time to be frivolous with his resources like his other colleagues in the vineyard of God? Certainly not Primate Ayodele. The man is a lone ranger. A one man riot squad. He needs no friends to operate. He chooses his friends, his friends don’t choose him. But the last person Primate Ayodele will choose as a friend is a man of God who does nothing but flaunt his flmbuoyant lifestyle in the faces of the poor and hungry!

E‑Money’s Grand Gesture: A Closer Look at the SUV Gift to Chinedu “Aki” Ikedieze
E‑Money’s Grand Gesture: A Closer Look at the SUV Gift to Chinedu “Aki” Ikedieze
By George Omagbemi Sylvester | Published by SaharaWeeklyNG
“Public Generosity, Celebrity Loyalty and the Symbolism of Wealth in Nigeria’s Entertainment Elite.”
On Tuesday, February 17, 2026, Nigerian billionaire and entrepreneur Emeka Okonkwo, widely known as E‑Money, once again captured national attention with a lavish and highly publicised act of generosity, gifting a brand‑new 2024/2025 Ford SUV to veteran Nollywood actor Chinedu Ikedieze, affectionately called Aki, during his high‑profile birthday celebration.
The event, held in Lagos amidst a constellation of entertainers, business figures and socialites, was itself part of an annual tradition in which E‑Money marks his birthday (on February 18) with large‑scale giveaways and spectacular shows of material philanthropy. This year, he announced the gift of over 30 cars to friends, staff and family, a gesture that quickly went viral as videos and images circulated across social media platforms.
In the case of Ikedieze, E‑Money’s gift appeared to be deeply personal. During the festivities, E‑Money stood beside his elder brother, Grammy‑nominated musician KCee and recounted how Ikedieze stood by him at his 2007 wedding. The billionaire explained that the SUV was a “token of appreciation” for the enduring support the actor had shown over the years which is a narrative that blends friendship with public celebration.
Ikedieze, a Nollywood staple with a career spanning more than two decades and over 150 film credits, including the iconic Aki na Ukwa franchise, visibly reacted with humble surprise as he received the vehicle, bowing his head in respect and gratitude. The actor later shared the moment on his Instagram account with a caption celebrating the gift, further fuelling online engagement around the event.
Beyond the spectacle, this incident underscores evolving dynamics in Nigerian celebrity culture and the intersection of wealth, influence and reciprocity. Sociologist Dr. Chinedum Uche of the University of Lagos, speaking on the broader implications of such high‑profile gifts, notes: “Philanthropy that is highly publicised can reinforce social bonds, but it also reflects a culture where generosity is intertwined with reputation economy; where giving becomes as much a social signal as it is an act of kindness.” The quote highlights how public acts of wealth transfer among elites serve layered social functions that extend beyond pure altruism.
Critics of such displays argue that ostentatious giveaways, particularly in a country with stark economic disparities, risk amplifying social envy and exacerbating perceptions of inequality. Economist Dr. Ifunanya Nwosu from the Lagos Business School observes: “In societies marked by economic stratification, celebrity largesse may inspire admiration, but it can also inadvertently highlight structural inequities; prompting questions about systemic investment in public welfare versus individual generosity.”
Still, supporters maintain that E‑Money’s annual tradition (which has in past years included cash gifts to his brother KCee, comedians and even domestic staff) reflects genuine gratitude and a commitment to uplifting his immediate circle, albeit within the private sphere.
For Ikedieze, the SUV stands both as a heartfelt gesture from a longtime friend and a public affirmation of their enduring relationship. As the video of the moment continues to circulate, the broader narrative has ignited discussions about the role of private wealth in public life, celebrity culture and how acts of giving are interpreted in contemporary Nigerian society.
In a landscape where influence and generosity often play out in equal measure on public stages, E‑Money’s gift to Aki is more than a headline, it is a flashpoint in ongoing debates about wealth, friendship and visibility in Nigeria’s entertainment and entrepreneurial ecosystem.

Spiritual Reality: Wicked People Are Possessed by Wicked Spirits — Dr. Christian Okafor
Spiritual Reality: Wicked People Are
Possessed by Wicked Spirits — Dr. Christian Okafor
…..“You don’t need to offend them before they attack you.”
…..“Your only true help comes from God.”
Demons are strategic and calculating. They detect threats quickly and position themselves to resist any power that may expose or overpower them.
According to the Generational Prophet and Senior Pastor of Grace Nation Global, Christian Okafor, spiritual intelligence operates both in light and in darkness—and believers must understand this reality.
Dr. Okafor delivered this message on Thursday, February 19, 2026, during the midweek Prophetic, Healing, Deliverance and Solutions Service (PHDS) held at the international headquarters of Grace Nation Worldwide in Ojodu Berger, Lagos, Nigeria.
The Operations of Demons
Teaching on the subject “Spiritual Reality” with the subtitle “Operations of Demons,” the Man of God explained that when demons possess individuals, their behavior changes. Such people may attack, bully, or resist those sent by God to help them, unknowingly rejecting divine assistance and prolonging their struggles.
“You don’t need to offend a demon before it attacks you,” he said. “What you carry is enough to provoke opposition. The greater your potential, the greater the battle.”
Dr. Okafor noted that many believers misinterpret battles as signs that God has abandoned them. However, he explained that some battles are permitted for growth, training, and divine glorification.
According to him, God may allow certain confrontations so that believers understand spiritual warfare and emerge stronger.
“Some battles are necessary,” he emphasized. “They push you into your turning point.”
He further stated that God does not respond to lies, blackmail, or bullying. He responds to His Word. Therefore, opposition is not proof of God’s absence, but often evidence of destiny at work.
The Weapon Against Demonic Attacks
Addressing solutions, Dr. Okafor described prayer as the strongest weapon against satanic operations.
“Prayer is the license that invites God into your battles,” he declared. “God does not intrude—He responds to invitation.”
According to the Apostle of Altars, understanding the principles and discipline of prayer enables believers to receive divine strategies for overcoming demonic resistance. Without prayer, he warned, spiritual help cannot be activated.
“You cannot receive help without God,” he concluded. “And you cannot engage God without prayer.”
Manifestations at the Service
The midweek gathering was marked by a strong move of the Spirit, with testimonies of deliverance, miracles, restoration, and solutions to various challenges presented before God. Several individuals reportedly committed their lives to Christ during the service.

Kingdom Advancement: God Does Not Confirm Lies or Gossip — He Confirms His Word .” — Dr. Chris Okafor
Kingdom Advancement: God Does Not Confirm Lies or Gossip—He Confirms His Word
“When Doing Business with God,
People’s Opinions Do Not Count.”
— Dr. Christian Okafor
The greatest investment any Christian can make is partnering with God. According to the Generational Prophet of God and Senior Pastor of Grace Nation Global, Christopher Okafor, when a believer commits to serving and advancing God’s kingdom, no barrier, lie, gossip, or blackmail can prevail against them.
This message was delivered during the Prophetic Financial Sunday Service held on February 15, 2026, at the international headquarters of Grace Nation Worldwide in Ojodu Berger, Lagos, Nigeria.
Doing Business with God
Teaching on the theme “Kingdom Advancement” with the subtitle “Doing Business with God,” Dr. Okafor emphasized that when a believer enters into covenant partnership with God, divine backing becomes inevitable.
“God is still in the business of covenant,” he declared. “When you make a covenant with Him, He honors the terms. When you win souls into the kingdom and remain committed to His work, He rewards you with what you could never achieve by your own strength.”
The Man of God stressed that God does not confirm lies, gossip, or negative narratives—He confirms His Word. Therefore, anyone genuinely committed to kingdom business should not be distracted by public opinion.
“No matter the blackmail or falsehood circulating around you, if you are focused on God’s assignment, those attacks will only strengthen you,” he stated.
He further noted that a believer’s understanding of God’s covenant determines their experience. “Your mentality about God’s covenant becomes your reality. When you truly know the God you serve, no devil can move you.”
Biblical Examples of Kingdom Partnership
Dr. Okafor cited several biblical figures who prospered through their partnership with God:
Abel
Abel served God with sincerity and offered his very best. His sacrifice pleased God, demonstrating that when a master is honored, he responds with favor.
David
David’s heart was fully devoted to God, and in return, God’s presence and favor rested upon him throughout his life.
Hannah
Hannah made a covenant with God, promising that if He blessed her with a child, she would dedicate him to His service. After fulfilling her vow, God rewarded her abundantly, blessing her with additional children.
Peter
Peter, a professional fisherman, surrendered his boat at Jesus’ request for kingdom work. Through that act of partnership and obedience, he experienced supernatural provision and divine elevation.
Conclusion
In closing, Dr. Okafor emphasized that one’s approach to God’s covenant determines the level of success and prosperity experienced. Commitment to kingdom advancement secures divine confirmation and supernatural results.
The Prophetic Financial Sunday Service was marked by prophetic declarations, deliverance, healings, miracles, restoration, and solutions to diverse cases presented before Elohim.
