"They're Going to Kill You": Primate Ayodele Sends Spiritual Warning to Gov Adeleke
- Osun Governor Ademola Adeleke has been warned of being killed like his brother and former Governor Isiaka Adeleke
- Primate Elijah Ayodele gave the warning to the governor as he prepares for his re-election in August 2026
- Ayodele alleged that President Bola Tinubu was very interested in Osun and the best bet for Adeleke was to dump the PDP for the APC, the president's party
Primate Elijah Ayodele, the spiritual leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has claimed that it was revealed to him that Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun could be killed, as his brother, Isiaka Adeleke, was allegedly killed by his political opposition.
The cleric, in a trending video, urged the supporters of the governor to go into a three-day fast and prayer for the successful re-election of Adeleke, which has been scheduled to hold on Saturday, August 8, 2026.

Tinubu eager to have Osun, Ayodele alleges
Primate Ayodele, in a trending video on his social media, alleged that President Bola Tinubu was desperate to have Osun under his ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), adding that it would only be wise if the governor dumps the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and joins the ruling party.
Ayodele alleged that it was revealed to him that there would be advanced technological election malpractice in the 2026 governorship election in Osun if Adeleke decides to remain in his party, and he could be defeated using federal might.
The cleric's warning came amid the political permutations taking place across the country, particularly ahead of the 2027 general election. Meanwhile, the Osun governorship election is one of the off-season polls in Nigeria, and Governor Adeleke would be seeking re-election in 2026.

Governor Adeleke visits Tinubu in Lagos
Recently, Governor Adeleke, his nephew and Afrobeats singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, along with his elder brother, Adedeji Adeleke, have visited President Tinubu at his residence in Lagos.
The Adelekes' visit to the president came amid the report that the governor was planning to dump the PDP for the APC to secure his second term in office in the forthcoming governorship election in Osun.
Why Adeleke visited Tinubu in Lagos
Another major political crisis rocking the state is the allocation of local government. The federal government was accused of implementing the Supreme Court judgment to seize the state council's allocation arbitrarily.
The governor has refused to recognise the reinstated local government chairmen of the APC by the Court of Appeal, insisting that those elected on the platform of the PDP were the authentic chairmen. Adeleke's claim contradicted the position of the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi.
The governor has also reportedly been threatened by a report that former Governor Rauf Aregbesola, who contributed much to his administration, would not be supporting his second term bid in office.
