The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has warned President Bola Tinubu to urgently find ways to unite Nigeria across tribal lines to avoid a revolution in the country.
In a statement by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, he said disunity has eaten deep into the country and almost every sector has no unity.
Ayodele stated the government has a responsibility to ensure the country stays together by tackling the causes of disunity politically, religiously, and tribally, because Nigeria’s peace is threatened by gross disunity featuring in every sector.
He explained that the only thing bringing Nigerians together is football, but the Super Eagles have not been performing excellently, further contributing to disunity across the country
He said: “Something needs to be done about Nigeria.
“Many may not tell the president about this, but Nigeria isn’t united in terms of geopolitical zones, religion, tribalism, and politics.
“We are very disturbed in this country, tribes dislike themselves, and this threatens the unity of this country.
“Nigeria needs to be very prayerful, the government needs to watch on the causes of these things, the ethnic crisis is very imminent if the government doesn’t take it seriously.
“Religion cannot even bring us together because issues still arise from there. I think the only thing that brings us together is football, but even our Super Eagles are not doing well.”
The prophet made it known that the government must collapse the system and conduct a form of referendum to reset the whole thing.
Ayodele stated that even if Igbos get to power, there will still be disunity if the main issues have not been tackled.
He added: “The government will need to collapse the system and re-arrange.
“They will need to do a kind of referendum to reset the whole thing.

“Even if Igbos get to power tomorrow, there will still be issues, our unity is seriously threatened.
“We need to really get united and this is everywhere, even among those working for the president, civil service, just everywhere.”
Ayodele blamed disunity for the numerous deaths recorded in the country, stating that it is a disease that seems to be incurable.
He urged the government to look at the issue spiritually to avoid a revolution.
He added: “This is why people are being killed daily, why votes will always be one-sided, why some people who rise to get to a certain level in life will find it difficult to agree on one thing, it’s a disease that seems to be incurable.
“We need to look at this spiritually because this can cause revolution; it’s affecting our economy, the country spiritually and morally.
“There is no love in this country; even those working with Tinubu don’t love him.”
