The leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has said the illness affecting their governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, needs a spiritual solution.
In a statement issued by his spokesman, Oluwatosin Osho, Primate Ayodele revealed that Governor Akeredolu’s illness is more spiritual than physical and urged for prayers for his restoration.
“Governor Akeredolu needs prayers for him to come back to office and to return to power. His family needs to seek the face of God concerning his illness,” the statement said.
He further stated that “the illness is determined to make him completely incapacitated if they don’t seek the face of God on time so that he can finish his term.”
Primate Ayodele warned that the governor’s health should not be used for any political gains. “His family and well-wishers should seek God’s face. They shouldn’t use Akeredolu’s life for political interest, what he needs now is prayers of restoration.”
The Primate’s statements come amidst growing concerns about Governor Akeredolu’s health, which has forced him to stay away from the state.
