Oliver Okpala, Senior Special Assistant on Public Enlightenment to APC National Chairman Abdullahi Ganduje, has issued a strong rebuttal to Primate Elijah Ayodele’s recent prophecy claiming Ganduje’s tenure is nearing its end. Okpala condemned Ayodele’s statements, urging the clergyman to cease making negative predictions designed to instill fear.
In a statement, Okpala emphasized that true religious leaders promote peace, unity, love, and happiness. He criticized Ayodele’s approach, suggesting it is more akin to political maneuvering than genuine spiritual guidance. Okpala cited Jeremiah 23:16, cautioning against prophets who speak from their own hearts rather than from divine inspiration.
“Dr. Ganduje knows too well that no religion preaches or authors confusion. He remains focused working closely with our amiable leader, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” Okpala stated. He assured that despite prophecies of doom, Ganduje will not be swayed by politics of bad blood, noting his enduring commitment to his people and the nation.
