The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, on Tuesday, blasted the People Democratic Party, PDP, following the outcome of the governorship elections in Edo State.

Primate Ayodele said the opposition parties in Nigeria were not on ground but active only on digital platforms.

In a statement signed by his Media Aide, Oluwatosin Osho, Primate Ayodele mentioned that PDP’s role as an opposition party had become expired because governors under the platform were dull.

The prophet, who warned the PDP to watch out for electoral malpractices ahead of the Edo election, explained that the 2027 presidential election will not be free of electoral malpractices.

According to Ayodele: ‘’I have been warning Edo PDP and Governor Obaseki about the outcome of the result seven different times but they refused to listen to warnings, they didn’t do what was needed to win the election.

“This is what Nigerians should be expecting in 2027, if care isn’t taken, election malpractice will determine who will win the election.

‘’There is no judiciary to win your rights; Edo is a precedent of what they should expect in 2027. The opposition is weak, PDP governors are all dormant, selfish and confused, the party is dead physically and spiritually.’’

Primate Ayodele described opposition parties as people in bondage that have been reduced to ceremonial politicians.

He mentioned some vibrant opposition members who had clout unlike the new generation of opposition parties.

‘’There is no opposition, the opposition is in bondage, they are just ceremonial governors, they don’t have action.

“Where are the likes of Wike, Saraki, Oshiomhole, Rotimi Amaechi, Fayose in opposition parties, they are all gone. The new generation of opposition parties are too dull, what we have left is digital opposition.’

‘’Especially in PDP, most governors are after their personal interest, they have no clout and will only betray themselves,‘’ he said.
