Seek God’s face over refinery, storm not over – Primate Ayodele to Dangote
Primate Elijah Ayodele, leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, advised Aliko Dangote to seek divine guidance due to ongoing crises. Primate Ayodele emphasized the need for Dangote to turn to God for the continuity of his refinery business.
In a statement by his media aide, Oluwatosin Osho, Ayodele cautioned that adversaries would challenge Dangote in unexpected ways.
The prophet highlighted that while the refinery could significantly benefit Nigeria’s economy, powerful individuals would oppose its success.
He said: ‘’Before the incident of Dangote, I sent a very prominent northern traditional ruler to tell him that the government will fight him.
“I also made a video about it, it has come to pass and I want to advise that people don’t take prophecy with levity.
“It is to warn you against an impending danger and maybe it’s because I am not a Muslim, that’s why he ignored my warning. The same way I warned against a gang-up regarding Glo.
‘’The storm isn’t over for Dangote, they don’t want that refinery to succeed, there are people behind it in order to frustrate his effort.
“Let him seek the face of the Lord so that he can have continuity in the refinery, there are still challenges ahead. Despite the fact that the refinery will boost the economy, some people will not want it to stand.’’
‘’If the government starts fighting indigenous companies, how do we expect to grow? We have to encourage indigenous companies and having Dangote refinery will create more labour in the market.
“I don’t know why they are trying to sabotage the refinery because it’s a blessing to Nigeria. The government should support these people. We also have Innoson motors and instead of supporting foreign countries, why not give Innoson the full support?
‘’These are the people who can make the economy smile, I see no reason Dangote should not be licensed or joking with this multi-billion naira project. It is time to put ethnicity aside and focus.
‘’Although Dangote is a businessman and his fuel may not make any serious difference, there won’t be scarcity anymore and it will create more jobs for Nigerians,‘’ he added.
