The man of God in charge of Inri Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has said only total obedience to the will of God and strict adherence to divine guidance could guarantee success in every human endeavour.
The popular seer made this remark while reacting to his prophecy on the just concluded Presidential election won by the candidate of the Republican Party, Donald Trump. He described the defeat of the Democratic Party candidate, Harris Kamala as a consequence of disobeying divine guidance and instructions.
The presiding cleric of Inri Evangelical Spiritual Church, Lagos who is renowned for his gift of prophecy is one of the numerous clerics who gave notable predictions on the just concluded American presidential election. Ayodele’s prophecy, as usual, came in the form of warnings and guidance to the leading candidates at the election. In his predictions, the popular seer identified what each of the leading candidates needed to do in order to emerge victorious at the end of the poll.
in a broadcast in September, Primate Ayodele predicted that Donald Trump would lose if the elections were to be held in September. However in a subsequent broadcast, he warned Kamala that unless she worked harder to record landslide victories in notable swing states especially in Michigan, California, Wisconsin, Ohio and Pennsylvania, the Republican candidate would defeat her.
“Kamala Harris, listen to me, you will lose this election if you are not careful enough. You will lose in the sense that you are not doing well in areas considered as strongholds. You will be knocked out at the electoral college. So if you want to win, you must work hard on your strongholds. If you are waiting to take from Trump’s it might be difficult for you. So you must work hard to have a landslide in your strongholds. You must work hard in these five places as I mentioned before- Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, California and Pennsylvania. If you don’t work very well in these places, it will be very difficult for you to succeed. This is a warning from the Lord,” Primate Ayodele declared.
Ayodele’s last prediction on the US Presidential election came at a time when Botswana’s new president, Dumo Boko of Umbrella for Democratic Change, was sworn in, in what turned out to be the fulfilment of his 2023 prediction on the Southern African country’s election.
The cleric had in 2023 warned the immediate past President of Botswana, Mokgweetsi Masisi of Botswana Democratic Party, BDP, about the imminent end of his party’s almost 60-year reign, which indeed came to pass with its defeat at the last poll by Dumo’s UDC.
