Primate Ayodele’s Fulfilled Prophecies On Attacks In Abuja, Ekiti State (VIDEOS)

Primate Ayodele Never Said Seyi Makinde Would Become President’’ – Media Aide Clarifies*

Primate Ayodele’s Fulfilled Prophecies On Attacks In Abuja, Ekiti State (VIDEOS)

 

The DSS, Nigerian military, police and every security formation in Nigeria have failed the citizens in carrying out their duties. We keep on hearing of kidnap attacks and the death of kidnap victims, yet there has been nothing tangible to curb their influx.

In most cases, these attacks happen because there is little or no information before the attacks, but in this case, our security operatives had enough information made available by Nigerian prophet, Primate Elijah Ayodele, which they chose to ignore.

The reason Primate Ayodele is always vocal about these attacks and ensures he shares them beforehand is so they can have ample time to tackle the danger that lies ahead, but these security operatives largely ignore the warnings at the detriment of the lives of Nigerian citizens.

In Ekiti, the Vice Chairman of Ilejemeje Local Government Area of Ekiti State, Grace Ogunleye, has reportedly been abducted by gunmen.

Sources said Ogunleye was kidnapped along the Ipere–Iludun Ekiti road while returning from official duties on Wednesday.

Confirming the development in a statement, Director of Information and Civic Orientation for Ilejemeje local government, Falade Sunday, said security agencies had been alerted, and efforts were ongoing to rescue her.

Although she has been rescued by security operatives, the fact that the incident happened means these operatives don’t take note of prophetic warnings.

Primate Ayodele, in a prophetic warning just two days ago, revealed that kidnappers will start operations very soon in certain states, including Ekiti state.

“I had warned that there are kidnappers in Oyo, Ekiti, Osun, Ondo, and part of Lagos. They will start operation soon. Our security operatives don’t know what divinity is, and this is why Tinubu will be angry with security chiefs and may remove them.” This has been fulfilled.

Likewise, there is fear among residents of the Kuntun Bokun area of the Paze axis of Kubwa, Bwari Area Council, Abuja, following a kidnapping incident.

DAILY POST gathered on Wednesday that the gunmen had, on May 5, invaded the community, shooting sporadically to scare residents before carrying out the attack.

Residents, who spoke with our correspondent, said the incident started around 11:40 pm after several gunshots suddenly echoed across the area.

During the attack, a man was taken away by the gunmen, while a young man who sustained gunshot injuries is still receiving treatment.

Residents said the attackers moved through the area on foot without motorcycles or vehicles.

In a separate prophecy, Primate Ayodele warned that bandits will invade some states,s including Abuja.

These were his words:

“Bandits will invade Ondo state, Kano, Taraba, and even Abuja and Sokoto. Bandits want to take over certain places, and even churches will not escape. Fromm Palm Sunday to June, let them watch these places.”

Today, we proudly stand as beneficiaries of your labour, prayers, and sacrifices. The values of integrity, hard work, honesty, and fear of God which you instilled in us remain the solid foundation upon which our lives are built.

At 86, your legacy speaks louder than words. You have touched lives, nurtured souls, strengthened the church, and inspired many with your wisdom and steadfast commitment to righteousness. Your devotion to God and humanity remains worthy of emulation.
On this special occasion, we — Dr. Olufemi Amodu, Mr. Oluwole Amodu (Rtd DSA), and Barr. Olukunle Amodu — celebrate you with deep love, honour, and appreciation. We thank God for preserving you in sound health, grace, and peace.
