The Primate Elijah Ayodele, who leads the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has issued a new prophecy concerning the political landscape of Nigeria, specifically with respect to the upcoming Senate presidency position.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that in a statement released on Monday and signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, the Primate declared that should Orji Kalu fail to become the next Senate President, the Igbo people would suffer dire consequences.
The statement also warned that the opposition parties within the Senate could pose a significant challenge to the race for the Senate presidency, but would ultimately be hindered by financial disagreements and divisions.
‘’I still maintain that the best candidate for senate president is Orji Uzor Kalu. If he loses it Igbo will be in trouble.
“The Igbos in the house will make it difficult for him but to balance the situation, an Igbo person and a Christian is better. A Muslim emerging the next senate president will lead to crisis, there will be so much rowdy session and disagreement in the house,’’ he said.
He also said the best candidate to become the next House of Representatives speaker is Ahmed Wase, the current deputy speaker.
‘’If the opposition parties put themselves together as expected, they will shake the speakership race but there will be division among them because money will separate them.
“Money will make them not come together to produce a good candidate. The proposed coalition among opposition parties in the House of Representatives will not work. The deputy speaker, Ahmed Idris Wase is the best candidate. He will stabilize the house,” he added.
