- Primate Elijah Ayodele has predicted that mosquitoes will disappear from Nigeria by 2033, a prediction that has gone viral on social media and sparked widespread reactions.
Nigeria’s popular cleric primate Elijah Ayodele has left Nigerians both amused and confused with his bold predictions about the country’s future.
Mosquitoes in Nigeria will be completely gone by 2033, according to the controversial prophet.
“By 2033, Nigeria will be mosquito-free. Don’t believe it, just write it down and hold it. If you are alive by then, you will see it,” Ayodele declared.
The prediction quickly went viral on social media, with users debating its plausibility and joking that malaria might disappear along with mosquitoes.
Some commentators expressed humor at the statement, with one writing, “Not just mosquitoes, but malaria. Nigerian pastors and yay prophecies.” While another added, “We will have this prophecy bookmarked until 2033.”
Archbishop Ayodele, known for his controversial predictions, recently warned President Bola Tinubu against appointing governors who defected to the ruling party, especially from the northern region, warning that such a move could trigger a serious backlash.
In other news… The Federal High Court in Abuja has granted bail to Nollywood actress Angela Okorie in the sum of £5 million over cyberbullying allegations against actress Mercy Johnson-Okojie.
Judge Emeka Nwite ruled on Friday, granting a bail application by Okorie’s lawyer, Ernest Nwoye, over the objections of the prosecution. The judge said prosecutors had failed to provide convincing evidence that the defendant would avoid trial if released.
Judge Newitt noted that the decision to grant bail was subject to the court’s discretion, which must be exercised fairly and in the interests of justice. Based on this, he ruled in favor of the actress.
The court ordered that Okorie be released on bail conditions, which include providing a surety, also in the amount of £5 million. The sponsor must be a civil servant with a grade not lower than Grade 13 and must submit an affidavit of means.
Additionally, the sponsor will need to produce their letter of appointment and recent promotion letter. Both Okorie and her sponsor will be required to submit two passport photos to the court registrar, who will also verify the sponsor’s residential address.
Judge Nwite adjourned the case to March 23 and directed that Okorie be detained at Suleja Correctional Center until all bail conditions are fully satisfied.
