An Open Letter Of Apology To Nigerian Prophet, Primate Elijah Ayodele

 By Mutairu Zanu

I would have loved to go into details but now isn’t the time for plenty of talk but a moment of reflection for me because I have to swallow the many words I spoke about Nigerian prophet, Primate Elijah Ayodele.

I’m not someone who has a soft spot for prophets and prophecy but I am wide-read and love knowledge, there is virtually no prophet in the country that I don’t watch and read their prophecies. My reason for doing this isn’t out of my love for them but spotting the bad ones as I know the good book said and I quote ‘Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, When the Lord commandeth it not?’ which means any prophet who says a thing that doesn’t come to pass didn’t hear from God, therefore, He or she is fake; that was my mission.

In my quest, I discovered several prophets but one of the most popular names that appear regularly on my radar is Primate Elijah Ayodele of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church. Let me confess that I literally disliked this man because he prophesies almost everyday, talks on almost everything including football. He caused me great stress because I was always on his matter, searching every journal to know if God is truly interested in all these things Primate Ayodele talks about and out of my disdain for his ministry, I insulted him severally.

Among other prophets, I didn’t like mentioning or sharing his name on the social media because he appears to have a lot of followers online and offline and at the mention of his name for criticism, I face great opposition; some of my loyal followers defend him like they are his family members. They remind me of the things he has said that came to pass and his current prophecies, I cringe when I hear those things.

When he mentioned last year that the Naira will exchange for N1,400  against $1, I laughed it off because I believed in President Tinubu’s administration to save the economy but it has happened. When he mentioned that there will be insecurity in Abuja and that Kidnapping would be on the rise, I felt like eating him up because I know how secure the FCT is but now, the FCT is gradually becoming the hub of insecurity.

The height of it all was when he said former Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike and his successor, Sim Fubara would fight, it was never going to happen so I just know this man didn’t know what he was talking about till it finally happened before my very eyes. The election in Liberia too where he said George Weah will lose his second term bid and even went as far as saying the election will lead to a run-off, I was amazed at the accuracy. In Senegal, He had said that the ruling party will make sure opposition doesn’t exist and this was confirmed through the removal of the opposition leader, Ousmane Sonko from the candidates list.

I have written articles against Primate Ayodele several times and accused him of getting information from some people in high places but this accuracy is second to none, and it’s obvious that flesh and blood didn’t reveal all of these things to the man of God. There are more than 50 of his prophecies I can mention that have come to pass this year alone to my greatest surprise.

I disagreed with his prophecies but I realize I was wrong but now, I am willing to retrace my steps. I openly apologize to Primate Ayodele and would love to visit him personally to personally apologize and receive his blessings.
