The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has warned the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, against proceeding with their planned campaign commencement on October 31, 2026.
The cleric, in a video shared on his Facebook page on Thursday, urged the party to change the date and move its campaign kickoff to any day in November.
According to Ayodele, going ahead with the October 31 date could lead to setbacks for the party, warning that the date was not spiritually favourable for its political ambition.
He said the warning was based on what he described as a spiritual revelation and advised the ADC leadership not to disregard it.
"Change the date of your campaign commencement from 31 October to any date in November," Ayodele said.
The cleric further claimed that the party could encounter difficulties if it ignored his advice, insisting that moving the event to November would give it a smoother start.
"I am seeing a setback if you start on October 31. The date is not good. Move it to any date in November, then you can have a smooth sail," he added.
Ayodele urged Atiku and the ADC leadership to take the warning seriously, explaining that he had no personal interest in the matter but was speaking in his capacity as a spiritual father who wanted to guide them.
Primate Ayodele is known for making prophecies concerning political developments and other major events in Nigeria. His predictions frequently attract reactions and discussions, particularly on social media.
The warning comes as political activities and preparations gather momentum ahead of the 2027 general elections.
