Primate Elijah Ayodele, the Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has issued a fresh warning about political and economic developments in Nigeria, predicting a looming clash between National Security Adviser (NSA) Nuhu Ribadu and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike.
Speaking during a prophetic session at his church, Ayodele described the forthcoming disagreement between the two political figures as “serious, very serious,” hinting that the dispute could have significant implications for governance and stability.
“However, Nuhu Ribadu and Wike will have serious misunderstanding. Serious one. Very serious misunderstanding,” Ayodele declared. He did not specify the cause of the clash but emphasized the intensity of the rift, warning that it could disrupt political alignments within President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
The cleric, who has a history of making political predictions that spark national debate, said Nigerians should expect turbulence in the coming months as political interests collide. Analysts suggest that a fallout between Ribadu and Wike could strain the delicate balance of power in Abuja, given their influential roles in security management and capital administration.
In addition to his political prophecy, Ayodele also touched on the telecommunications sector, foreseeing the entry of new and powerful players that will challenge the dominance of existing networks. According to him, three major telecom companies will emerge to reshape competition, suppressing established operators.
“I see at a time that all this telecommunication like GLOW, ETL, Glom Ethel. Three powerful telecommunications are coming that will suppress them. I don’t know when, but it will suppress them,” he stated.
Though Ayodele did not provide names or a timeline, his prophecy suggests a radical shift in Nigeria’s communications industry, which has long been dominated by providers such as MTN, Airtel, Globacom, and 9mobile. The sector has witnessed steady growth in mobile penetration and internet access, but consumers have frequently complained about poor service delivery and high tariffs.
Industry watchers believe that the entry of new competitors could intensify competition, force down prices, and improve service quality for millions of Nigerians. However, they also caution that regulatory hurdles and infrastructural challenges remain formidable barriers for new entrants.
Ayodele’s predictions come amid heightened uncertainty in Nigeria’s political and economic landscape. Wike, a former Rivers State governor, has been embroiled in controversies over his combative style of politics and his tussles with allies and rivals alike. Ribadu, on the other hand, has been tasked with overseeing Nigeria’s complex security architecture, a role that demands both firmness and collaboration. A clash between the two, as Ayodele foresees, could test President Tinubu’s capacity to manage competing egos within his administration.
While Ayodele’s prophecies are often met with mixed reactions—drawing both supporters who believe in his spiritual insights and skeptics who dismiss them as speculation—they continue to shape public discourse by raising questions about the country’s direction.
