You have been exposed, stop deceiving Nigerians – MASSOB hits Primate Ayodele
The Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has accused the leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, of allegedly deceiving Nigerians under the guise of divine revelation.
In a statement issued by its National Director of Information, Comrade Edeson Samuel, the group said Primate Ayodele’s alleged “anti-Igbo and tribalized posture” has been exposed.
MASSOB claimed the cleric’s criticisms of Mr Peter Obi of the Labour Party and his support for President Bola Tinubu were part of a sponsored campaign to discredit the former Anambra governor.
The statement accused Ayodele of ignoring the “hardship and insecurity” in the country while defending the Tinubu administration. It said:
“In your support bid for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, you have turned blind eyes to the huge evils his administration has caused Nigerians, including your kinsmen. You have also ignored the ongoing genocide against Christians in Nigeria.”
MASSOB expressed support for former US President Donald Trump’s recent stance against the Nigerian government, saying his intervention aims to expose “foreign and local-backed Fulani jihadists” responsible for attacks on Christians.
The group rejected Ayodele’s claim that Trump’s position was part of a plot to destabilize the Tinubu administration, insisting that the president was responsible for his government’s instability.
“Tinubu is the one destabilizing his administration by appointing his kinsmen to occupy almost all strategic positions and running the government like a family business,” MASSOB stated.
The pro-Biafra group further alleged that Tinubu’s presidency lacks legitimacy, claiming he “connived with INEC and the judiciary to steal the presidential mandate.”
MASSOB also dismissed Ayodele’s call for Tinubu to seek God’s face, saying such advice was “deceitful,” as, according to the group, “God did not install him as Nigeria’s president.”
It said Tinubu should instead seek forgiveness from former INEC Chairman Mahmood Yakubu and former Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola.
