The leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has given a final warning to the political gladiators in Edo State ahead of the gubernatorial election slated to take place on September 19, 2020.

Primate Ayodele, who is a prominent seer, had given several warnings to the All Progressive Congress and Peoples Democratic Party and their candidates over the last few month.

Recall that he had prophesied that the candidate of the PDP, Godwin Obaseki, will emerge winner of the poll without any form of manipulation.

However, he has given a further warning and advice to Obaseki on his fate in the election.

In a statement on Monday, Primate Ayodele called on the attention of the Edo State Governor to the fight against every form of manipulation and for him to ensure he wins during the election because any court case after the election won’t give him victory.

While urging him not to be carried away by the crowd, he made it known that his only chance is the election and that he needs to unleash his arsenal to fight against manipulation and disenfranchisement.

Ayodele said: “People are supporting Obaseki but those people might not be allowed to vote.

“He needs to be rugged, else he will be eased out, if he takes any simplicity method, he will lose out.

“There will be manipulations in the election.

“If he isn’t careful, his victory will be given to someone else.

“Even if he appeals the case, he won’t be given.

“He must not allow manipulations in the election.

“If he loses, he will be forever irrelevant in politics.

“They have already prepared the manipulation process to ease him out.

“He shouldn’t be carried away by the crowd he sees at the moment.

“He needs to work against the manipulation technically and pack his arsenal together to battle against APC and (Pastor Osagie)Ize-Iyamu.

“They will want to steal of ballot boxes.

“They want to disenfranchise people.

“He must have committed people in polling units.

“He shouldn’t accept anything inconclusive.

“If he allows Ize-Iyamu to win, he is gone politically and jail is waiting for him.

“He should ensure he wins because if he thinks the court will later rule in his favour after the election, it won’t work.

“It’s better he wins right from the election than taking Ize-Iyamu to court.

“The election will be violent, thugs will be used, different methods will be used, the election will not be peaceful as expected.

“Obaseki should work against manipulation.

“That is the only thing that will give him victory.

“If he wins, he will become a hero and send away godfatherism in Nigeria.

“He needs to listen to advice, either the one he feels is useful or not.

“Ize-Iyamu cannot win Edo election, except through serious manipulation.”

Primate Ayodele’s prophecies and warnings have proven to be valid countless times, with the confirmation of his many prophecies.

In Edo State, he predicted the easing out of Obaseki from the APC primaries, removal of Adams Oshiomhole as the APC National Chairman, and fall out of Obaseki and Oshiomhole among others.

Two Nigerians, Anthony Ibekie and Samuel Aniukwu, have been sentenced by a United States federal jury to a combined 30 years in prison for defrauding US citizens of $3.5 million.

The sentencing was announced in a press release made available on the US Department of Justice website on Monday.

According to the statement, Ibekie and Aniukwu deceived their victims by claiming they had received substantial inheritances that required money to be claimed. The duo would then ask the victims to send money with the promise of reimbursement once the inheritances were secured.

The statement also highlighted that the pair carried out romance scams, building online relationships with their victims to gain their trust, only to later demand money.

It read, “An undercover law enforcement investigation has resulted in federal prison sentences for two Nigerian nationals residing in the Chicago suburbs who conducted online inheritance scams and other fraud schemes.

“Using aliases, Anthony Emeka Ibekie and Samuel Aniukwu communicated with victims throughout the United States, convincing them they had received substantial inheritances and needed to send money to individuals associated with the defendants in order to claim it.

“In addition to the inheritance scam, the pair carried out an online romance scam that involved communicating with victims via social media and dating websites, building trust with the victims through a purported online romance, and convincing them to send money to a predetermined recipient. Aniukwu and Ibekie also orchestrated a ‘business email compromise’ scam that targeted corporate email accounts.

“The fraud schemes were uncovered by a covert law enforcement investigation. The scams resulted in losses to victims of at least $3.5 million.”

The statement further noted that after facing at least 14 charges, Ibekie and Aniukwu pleaded guilty to the accusations. As a result, Ibekie was sentenced to 20 years in prison on Thursday, while Aniukwu received a 10-year sentence on November 8.

The statement continued, “A federal jury earlier this year convicted Ibekie, 59, of Oswego, Ill., on all 14 counts of wire fraud, mail fraud, money laundering, making false statements to a bank, and passport fraud. U.S. District Judge Steven C. Seeger on Thursday sentenced Ibekie to 20 years in federal prison.

“Aniukwu, 50, of Romeoville, Ill., pleaded guilty last year to wire fraud and money laundering charges. Judge Seeger on Nov. 8, 2024, sentenced Aniukwu to 10 years in prison.”

Meanwhile, an accomplice of Ibekie and Aniukwu, US citizen Jennifer Gosha, is set to be sentenced on December 18 following her guilty plea.

“A third defendant, Jennifer Gosha, 52, a U.S. citizen from Oak Park, Ill., pleaded guilty earlier this year to charges of wire fraud and making false statements to a federal agent. Gosha is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Seeger on December 18, 2024,” the statement concluded.

The Governor of Ebonyi State, Francis Nwifuru, has suspended the state Commissioner for Health, Dr. Moses Ekuma, and his counterpart in Housing and Urban Development, Francis Ori.

The suspensions occurred on Monday during the State Executive Council meeting in Abakaliki, the state capital.

A statement issued by the Commissioner for Information and State Orientation, Jude Okpor, on Tuesday morning, read, “Following cases of gross misconduct and dereliction of duties by some government officials and matters related thereto, the Chairman of Council directed the indefinite suspension of the Honourable Commissioner for Housing and Urban Development and three months suspension of the Honourable Commissioner for Health respectively.”

Reports suggest that the suspensions may be linked to the alleged theft of government property by officials in the Ministry of Health and the reported underperformance of the Housing and Urban Development commissioner, particularly regarding his poor management of the Amaeze Housing Scheme in the Ishielu Local Government Area.

It is also recalled that the governor visited the health ministry’s premises on Saturday night, where six officials were allegedly caught diverting government materials. He subsequently ordered their arrest and prosecution.
