The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, on Tuesday warned the Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, that President Bola Tinubu wants him out of office.
Ayodele also informed the governor that the All Progressives Congress, APC, wants to perform magic in the poll.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Ayodele said Tinubu is interested in the governorship election scheduled for Saturday.
This is coming after politicians in the state insinuated that Tinubu has no interest in the election following his directive to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to unfreeze Osun State’s accounts.
The cleric urged Adeleke not to listen to those saying the President isn’t involved, further advising him to do everything to ensure he retains his seat.
“Tinubu is fully involved and interested in Osun State. Adeleke shouldn’t allow anybody to deceive him that the president isn’t interested in it. He is closely monitoring the election and wants Adeleke out of power.
“Adeleke must do everything he knows to ensure he stays in power because if he loses, it won’t be an easy journey for him. It will even be difficult to get anything from the court. The APC wants to perform magic, but he must not allow them.
“The APC will use money, influence, power, forces, and the presidency. It won’t be easy at all; it will be very serious,” he said.
