The leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has blasted President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over the killings and kidnappings experienced lately in Nigeria.

Primate Ayodele, in a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, described the situation as a shame, especially for the fact that some officials of the government went to the US for a meeting regarding insecurity and the threats issued by Donald Trump.

The prophet stated that the president’s responsibility is to ensure every Nigerian is secured, and that if the president can’t make that happen, he should resign from his position and let someone else who is capable do it.

He made it known that the issue of genocide isn’t just affecting Christians alone, but everyone in the country, regardless of their religion.

“You have to use everything you have within your power to secure the lives of Nigerians. It’s a disgrace that we have to go and report to America, let’s be truthful and honest, Genocide isn’t a particular religion, it’s not only Christians, Muslims are also involved. The killing is general, and it’s really sad.

“Tinubu has a responsibility to protect every Nigerian regardless of religion or tribe, but what we have seen so far doesn’t seem like the president can do it. Sadly, citizens are losing confidence in their president; it’s totally a shame. If the president can’t solve insecurity, he should resign and let someone who can do it replace him.”

The prophet blasted the NSA, Nuhu Ribadu, for always ignoring warnings regarding insecurity in the country, making it known that he is one of those causing issues in Tinubu’s government.

He explained that the NSA hasn’t acted in his capacity to solve insecurity in the country.

“The NSA is always busy when it comes to listening to warnings that can protect the lives and properties of Nigerians. He doesn’t listen to intelligent advice, and this is costing the Tinubu government a lot. The president must call him to order, not for political reasons but for the sake of the innocent Nigerians.”

Furthermore, he advised President Tinubu to do everything within his power to protect Nigerians and ensure he listens to every advice.

“When there is insecurity everywhere will be in disarray; let the air run their aircraft in areas where we have problems. During elections, we see planes flying around; this should be done in those areas. The IGP, COAS, should relocate to these areas where we have problems.

“The DSS is doing well, the officials are proactive to a large extent, but they can’t do it on their own. They should be assisted by other forces to ensure their intelligence doesn’t go to waste.

“It is also not a time for you to ignore any prophecy, either fake or not. These terrorists sleep, they are not spirits, they shouldn’t have mercy on anyone, destroy them.” (Nigerian Tribune)
