The leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has warned Rivers state governor Nyesome Wike not to dump the opposition Peoples Democratic Party for the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC), saying that the move could end his political career.
The cleric also said that the Igbos should take advantage of 2023 and produce a Nigerian president of South-East extraction.
Primate Ayodele warned that the future generations of the Igbos would suffer if they fail to produce Nigeria’s President in 2023.
However, Ayodele insists that Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi can’t win the 2023 elections.
The Lagos-based cleric, made this statement in his church on Sunday, he said 2022 is not the turn of the Yoruba race, but the Igbos.
“2023 is the turn of the Igbos not even Yoruba, and if they miss it now, their great-grandchildren will be angry with them. Peter Obi can only make effort but won’t win.”
The cleric, further explained that the Igbo candidate who can win in 2023 was not given the ticket to contest.
He urged the Igbos not to be deterred if they miss it and that they should prepare for the 2027 general elections.
“The person who could have won the 2023 presidential election for the Igbos was not given the ticket, so the Igbos should go back and realign ahead of 2027.
“I support Yoruba’s agenda but it’s not their turn, 2023 is the turn of the Igbos, and if they miss it now, their next generation will suffer for it.”
The cleric further made clarifications on Wike’s body movement to join the APC, saying he should learn from his Ebonyi and Rivers state counterparts Umahi and Ayade.
According to the cleric both of them were warned but didn’t listen.
H said “Wike leaving PDP to APC is the end of his political career. When we warned Umahi and Ayade they felt we were making noise, now they know. Wike should not take the wrong step.
“APC and PDP are no longer good for Nigeria, they are not a glorious party that will take Nigeria to the next level even with their Chairmen. They picked the wrong people as Chairmen,” he added.
