In a recent Facebook post, Primate Ayodele issued a strong warning concerning the political future of Lagos State.
He cautioned that careless spending and poor decision-making could shift the political balance in unexpected ways.
According to him, leadership choices will be decisive in determining who governs the state in the near future.
The cleric stated, “You waste money. No. I’m seeing a Muslim governor in Lagos, and if they don’t pick the right person, if they don’t, underline the right person, if it’s directed wrongly, they can lose Lagos State.”
His words underscore the need for careful political calculations, particularly when selecting candidates who will represent the people.
Primate Ayodele suggested that the outcome of future elections in Lagos is not guaranteed, regardless of the ruling party’s current dominance.
He argued that ignoring the warning signs and choosing candidates without proper consideration could cost the state’s ruling structure its grip on power.
His reference to “losing Lagos State” suggests the possibility of a major political upset that could redefine the state’s leadership dynamics.
By emphasizing the phrase, “if they don’t pick the right person,” the cleric highlighted the central role of leadership integrity and public trust in ensuring electoral success.
His prediction further points to the delicate balance between religion, politics, and governance in Lagos, a state that has long been seen as politically strategic in Nigeria.
Primate Ayodele’s message serves as both a prophecy and a caution, urging decision-makers to act wisely.
