Lagos, Nigeria
Primate Elijah Ayodele, leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, says Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) has missed his chance of becoming Nigeria’s President.
The clergy also said the Igbos extraction of the country can’t produce Nigeria’s president in 2027.
Oluwatosin Osho, media aide to Ayodele in a statement said Obi had missed his chance of ruling Nigeria following his loss in the February 25 presidential poll.
“Peter Obi’s matter to the Supreme Court is dead on arrival; he can’t win the case and won’t be President of Nigeria,” the statement reads.
“His case will be thrown out. Obi would have won the election, but he didn’t do the right thing at the appropriate time.
“This is just medicine after death, a waste of money and resources. The people pushing Obi are spiritually blindfolded.
“The person that is on the presidential seat is more powerful than Obi spiritually. Even in 2027, no Igbo will become president; Obi has missed it,” he said.
