This has confirmed the 2024 prophecy of Primate Ayodele on traditional institutions which he released on Friday, December 22nd, 2023.
In a 90-page prophecies for 2024, Primate Ayodele mentioned some traditional rulers he warned to take care of their health in the new year. Among the list was Olubadan of Ibadan, Oba Olalekan Balogun. He warned them to pray for protection, good health and against bereavement.
These were his words,
OBA’S IN NIGERIA : “Aku Uka of Wukari, Alake of Egbaland, Asagba of Asaba (Delta), Awujale of Ijebuland, Emir of Zazzau, Ewi of Ado Ekiti, Gbom Gbom of Jos (plateau), Lamido of Adamawa, Oba of Lagos, Obi of Agbor (Delta), Obi of Onitsha, Ochi Idoma of Idoma, Olubadan of Ibadan, Olugbo of Ugboland, Owa Obokun of Ijesaland, Owa Ooye of Okemesi, Tor Tiv (Benue) and Shehu of Borno.
“The spirit of God says these Natural Rulers should pray for protection in their Palaces. They must pray for God’s divine guidance, good health and not to be bereaved. The spirit of God says they should pray against any crises. Let us pray so that no Palace of any Oba will be burnt down or attacked. The Traditional Rulers should also pray against any court conviction that will send them to jail. The spirit of God says the Obas in Yorubaland should rebuke what can earn them jail terms or what can cause any of them to be detained. These are God’s divine messages.’’
Also in a video interview conducted in December 2023, Primate Ayodele warned all traditional rulers in Yorubaland to pray against death.
