Primate Babatunde Ayodele Elijah of the Inri Evangelical Mission has predicted that Atiku Abubakar will win the 2019 elections but said he has to align with Senator Bukola Saraki’s glory before he can win.
Vanguard reports that the religious cleric on Sunday, December 23, prophesied that the All Progressives Congress will win in some states particularly Lagos.
He said: “On the 2019 election, it won’t be business as usual but APC will still win Lagos, Oyo, Kano, Kaduna and Kogi while Kwara still belongs to PDP.”
Primate Ayodele called on Atiku to align with Senate President Bukola Saraki, saying, "Atiku cannot win with his old glory. He needs to link up with Saraki glory to win. Atiku and Saraki are still playing. I don’t see any seriousness from them yet. Nigeria will be at peace in 2019."

The cleric said Bola Tinubu should forget about the presidency as it wasn’t meant for him. “No presidency for Tinubu. He should rule it out. PDP has no chance in Ogun. If care is not taken, Amosun candidate might win Ogun. APC will Anambra, Ebonyi, Cross River in Presidential election.”
He said the country’s solution to its problem is to break into smaller nations, regions.
"APC, PDP or any other party isn’t the solution. We are tired of ourselves. It is no longer possible for one man to rule over 180m Nigerians. We don’t have activist just those fighting for themselves. No infrastructure, economy and security.
“Terrorism has come to stay in Nigeria. The Joint Task Force (JTF) might turn into another terror group because government will no longer have time for them. And the JTF guys have received a lot of military training. Nepotism, tribalism and favoritism will make the military weaker," the cleric said.
