In April 2025, when Primate Elijah Ayodele told President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to be more concerned about international opposition, especially from the US, than Nigerian opposition parties, many didn’t know what he meant.
Even then, the government probably didn’t understand what the prophet meant until now, when it appears there are signs of Primate Ayodele’s prophecy coming to pass.
The prophet categorically told Tinubu that his greatest opposition would be the United States of America and that if he wasn’t careful, the US was desperate to remove him from power.
These were his words:
“The only thing President Tinubu should work on is preventing opposition parties from getting international backing from foreign political actors like the US government. Tinubu needs to work very hard to prevent it; otherwise, his second term is under attack.”
“In fact, President Tinubu should be more worried about foreign political actors rather than Nigerian opposition parties. The opposition candidates are not serious about taking over power; they are only doing what they like out of selfish interests. They can’t come up with any reasonable coalition that can win the presidency in 2027.”
Apart from April, the prophet spoke about it again in August, saying that the US was more than desperate to remove Tinubu from power. Still, the presidency probably ignored the warnings of God’s prophet, forgetting that he never says whatever God has not shown him.
These were his words:
“Also, make sure you sort out the issue of international communities. Like I said, America isn’t your friend. America is desperate to remove you; they will do everything to see you out of power.”
Bringing this to fruition, the last one month has witnessed several attacks and accusations from top US politicians, accusing the Nigerian government of genocide and killings of Christians. While Donald Trump hasn’t officially said anything about it, high-ranking senators in the US parliament have openly criticized the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, signaling the fulfilment of Primate Ayodele’s warnings.
United States Senator Ted Cruz claimed that Nigerian officials were ignoring or facilitating the mass killing of Christians by Islamist jihadists.
Cruz, in a post on his X handle on Friday, alleged that Christians were facing systematic persecution in Nigeria.
“Officials in Nigeria are ignoring and even facilitating the mass murder of Christians by Islamist jihadists. It’s time to hold those responsible accountable. My Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act would target these officials with powerful sanctions and other tools,” the Texas senator wrote.
A few hours ago, another top politician, Riley Moore, tagged Nigeria as the deadliest country for Christians due to killings he claimed have been happening in the country. He went as far as recommending Nigeria be added to the list of Countries of Particular Concern, while accusing the federal government of being hostile to Christians.
“Nigeria is the deadliest country in the world for Christians and the world stands by silently. That’s why I’m urging @SecRubio to designate Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern to unlock diplomatic levers to protect our brothers and sisters in Christ.
In addition to concerning reports of cells of the Nigerian government’s potential involvement in these attacks, officials at both state and federal levels are also often hostile to Christians. This includes forcing the closure of Christian orphanages and forced conversions.
Both federal and some state governments enforce anti-blasphemy laws. One individual was sentenced to 24 years in prison for ‘insulting the Prophet Mohammed.’ Others face the death penalty for similar reasons.”
Some presidential officials have now started responding to the claims of the US politicians, now that they have seen signs of Primate Ayodele’s prophecies coming to pass. The call is now to President Tinubu to either listen and adjust or ignore. Either way, the message has been delivered, and it is already coming to pass.
