'Some APC govs, cabinet members will work with Atiku' – Primate Ayodele warns Tinubu
The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has warned President Bola Ahmed Tinubu against betrayal from some of his cabinet members and some governors within the ruling party.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele made it known that some of the governors in the ruling party are planning to work with former Vice President Abubakar Atiku towards the 2027 presidential election.
He made it known that some top members of the President’s cabinet will also work with the former Vice President.
He also said that Atiku is working with United States politicians.
Primate Ayodele said: “Atiku is planning seriously with the support of America to get victory. He will do a lot of things, and Tinubu shouldn’t be surprised that some governors he believes will work with Atiku secretly. Some members of his cabinet will work with Atiku secretly.”
Furthermore, Primate Ayodele revealed that INEC isn’t ready to conduct a credible election. But according to him, the date of the election isn’t good enough for a credible poll to hold in Nigeria.
Primate Ayodele said the election will be marred by violence and disappointment.
The cleric said that there will be consequences if the election is held on the said date.
He said: “INEC isn’t ready to do credible election, it can be marred with violence and disappointment. The day isn’t yet properly in order for an election that will bring a right president. There will be serious violence and inconclusive results in some states.
"The date isn’t too certain and there will be consequences if it is done. There will be fake ballot papers, and rigging will be the order of the day. INEC will also play their own part.”
Continuing, Primate Ayodele asked the President to do something urgently about the economic situation of the country because it will affect a lot of things.
“The economy hardship will fight harder, and the strategy to fight it isn’t sustainable. Tinubu cannot do this alone; his ministers ought to do something about it, and I see inflation will start rising significantly, and people will not be happy with this. Tinubu should quickly do something about it. They may feel it is not necessary but time will tell," he added.

The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, in Borno State has dismissed its House of Assembly candidate, Mohammed Bunu, over alleged involvement in campaign activities linked to the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
The decision was communicated in a letter dated October 25, 2026, signed by the NDC state Deputy Chairman, Umar Fema.
The letter said the allegations stemmed from campaign materials bearing the ADC logo, the slogan “SABON TAFIYA, SABON SALO,” and the names and photographs of Atiku and Bunu.
According to the letter, the disciplinary process began at the Hausari Ward level before the matter was referred to the Maiduguri Metropolitan Council, MMC, party leadership for investigation.
Fema said the ward executive invited Bunu to respond to the allegations on October 23, but he did not attend.
He was invited again on October 24 to appear before an investigation committee but allegedly failed to attend.
The MMC party chairman, Adamu Ibrahim, subsequently endorsed the recommendation for disciplinary action and forwarded it to the state leadership.
The NDC said it decided to dismiss Bunu after considering the allegations and reports submitted through its disciplinary process.

A video has surfaced online showing some members of the Agaji volunteer group of Jama’atu Izalatil Bid’ah Wa Iqamatus Sunnah, JIBWIS, popularly known as Izala, chanting lyrics that appear to call for armed attacks on citizens in Enugu and Jos.
The footage, which gained attention on social media, particularly X on Sunday, shows a group of uniformed young men wearing brown attire and blue berets, reportedly associated with the Agaji volunteer wing of the Islamic organization.
In the video, one of the men leads a morale song containing references to obtaining an AK-47 rifle to attack people described as “infidels” in Enugu and Jos.
The chant includes the lyrics: “He should be given AK47. He would then go to Enugu, the land of the infidels. On Sunday when they are worshiping and clapping, he would then open fire, so that he can kill the infidels.”
The singer subsequently repeats the call for an AK-47, this time referencing Jos, and chants about killing more people he describes as infidels, before referring to the act as “the training.”
“He asked to be given AK-47 again. So that he can go to Jos and kill more infidels. That is the training.”
The exact date and location where the video was recorded have not been verified.
The footage, which has sparked reactions online, raised concerns over the possibility of attacks on Christians in Nigeria.
