The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has called for the sack of Nigeria’s Minister of Power, Bayo Adelebu, over his inefficiency in dealing with the electricity issues facing the country.
Primate Ayodele made this known in a statement signed by his media aide, Oluwatosin Osho, on Tuesday in Lagos.
He stated that Adelabu has not in any way helped the situation of the country in his capacity.

The prophet explained that a stable electricity supply will help reduce the impact of economic hardship on the citizens but the minister has done nothing to make the sector better.
He said: “Tinubu should sack the Minister of Power, Bayo Adelabu, if he wants to reform the power sector.
“State of emergency should be declared in that sector because nothing is happening.
“If there’s power supply, this hardship will be minimal.”
Also, while reacting to the proposal of state policing across the country, Primate Ayodele advised President Tinubu to increase the salaries of soldiers and police before embarking on state policing if he wants it to work.
He said: “You should also increase the salaries of our soldiers, police officers before we embark on state policing if we want it to work.
“It’s a good initiative and indeed, what is needed in the country but we need to go through the normal process to avoid failure of a good initiative like this.”
Furthermore, Primate Ayodele urged every state in the country to assist the federal government by supporting agriculture across the country.
“He made it known that solving the issue of hunger will help reduce so much burden on the federal government.
“Every state should look for ways to help the federal government by supporting agriculture nationwide. Let us solve the issue of hunger before dollars kills us.
“The resources we have in every state should be adequately used for the people.”
