The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Elijah Ayodele, has cautioned President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to tread carefully in his approach to opposition politics, warning that it could generate more resentment among Nigerians.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele said the current strategy of confronting opposition figures carries significant risks for the ruling party.
He added that such an approach could trigger further crises for the government, noting that some individuals around the President may not remain loyal when challenges arise.
“I must also caution the ruling party; fighting the opposition is a risky game because of their support, and the Nigerian government will not be able to fight the crisis because those with Tinubu are fake; they are deceiving him. Tinubu must apply caution because the more he fights, the more Nigerians hate him.”
The cleric also urged opposition figures to brace for more challenges, alleging that the ruling party has additional strategies to counter them.
“Opposition should get prepared for more vices from the ruling party because they will fight them with litigation, so they can lose focus. Malami, El Rufai shouldn’t think it is over till they finish the election, they have several strategies.”
He further advised the President to be fully prepared if he intends to continue engaging the opposition, stressing that it would not be an easy battle.
“Tinubu must add more feet to his legs if he wants to fight opposition because they won’t take it easy with him, either.
“We will start seeing several scenes and dramas coming up in the country. In two months time, we will start seeing them, and it will be very serious,” he added.
