Osun 2026: You’ll Win, but APC will attempt to snatch your victory, Ayodele tells Adeleke

The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has warned the Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, to be on alert regarding the upcoming Osun State governorship election, saying he would win but the All Progressives Congress (APC) will attempt to snatch his victory.

The Lagos State-based man of God said this in a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, on Sunday.

Primate Ayodele revealed that Adeleke has been anointed to win the election, but the APC will make moves to snatch victory from him.

The man of God, who had always maintained that the governor will win his second term, warned him not to relent because there are plans to pressure the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Joash Amupitan, to compromise.

He said: “In Osun election, God has already anointed Ademola Adeleke to secure a second term in office. 

“He will win the election, but the APC are working towards the aftermath of the win. 

“They will attempt to snatch victory from Adeleke if he isn’t careful enough.

“The governor must follow them closely and ensure he has eyes on the ground because they have already concluded their plans to go beyond the election polls to get victory by all means. 

“Adeleke must stay with his win till the very end.”

Furthermore, Primate Ayodele warned the INEC chairman against allowing himself to be used by the opposition party in Osun State, stating that he will be made to suffer for it if he doesn’t allow things to go the way they should.

He urged him not to play games with the election to avoid being used as a “scapegoat” by God, the people of Osun State, and Nigerians.

He said: “If the election is rigged, the INEC chairman will be made to suffer for it and those who pushed him into it will not stand by him. 

“It’s better he allows things to go the way they should to avoid any issues after the election. 

“He shouldn’t allow himself to be used by politicians in the state; if not, God will be angry with him, and the people of Nigeria will not take it easy with him.”
