Primate Elijah Ayodele of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Oke Afa, Isolo, Lagos, has predicted that it will be difficult for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to defeat President Muhammadu Buhari at February 2019 polls because they failed to do the right thing from the beginning.
The Primate made the pronouncement while giving out 2019 prophesies during his end of year interactive session with journalists at his church premises.
He reiterated his earlier stand that PDP will lose the presidential seat because it failed to make Senate President, Bukola Saraki, its flag bearer.
Predicting what will happen in the states, the man of God noted that the All Progressives Congress, APC, will retain Lagos, though it would not be easy. For River State, he said though it would be a do or die affair, Wike would still return to office.
“I said it the other time and I still maintain it, if PDP had given the ticket to Bukola Saraki, they will win because it’s only Saraki that can unseat Buhari but PDP has not done what they are supposed to do. I said it in 2015 that Jonathan may be the last president from PDP. I’m still standing on it unless they take a quick step and that is for Atiku and Saraki to do the right thing. If only they will do the right thing, that is only when PDP can win. For now, I’m only seeing Atiku and Saraki playing.”
Asked to elaborate on the right thing the duo ought to do, Ayodele said he will not speak further on that but insisted; “PDP will find it difficult to wrestle power from President Buhari come February 2019 election because they refused to do the right thing from the beginning. Unless they put heads together and do the right thing, APC will still come back.”
For the states, the Primate pronounced thus: “For Lagos State, it won’t be business as usual but APC will still win. In Oyo State, it’s going to be tough.
“The PDP man there has missed it; it’s still going back to APC. Ogun State is a troubled state. The election should’ve favoured APC, but APC may not have it in Ogun State. Don’t underestimate Amosun’s candidate, or the candidate from GNI but PDP will never get the ticket in Ogun.
“For Delta State, PDP will take the state. For Rivers, though it’s a do or die affair; Wike will still come back. Kano and Kaduna is for APC. Then for Imo State, if the PDP man is serious, he can take the state but unfortunately, I don’t see him to be serious and if APC puts their house in order in that state, then they can win that state. APC may win Anambra State for the presidency.

Ebonyi and Cross River States may go to APC if PDP is not careful in those states. This is because PDP has not done what they are supposed to do.”
Pointing out that his prophecies may not be 100 per cent accurate because prayers can change things, he said 95 percent of his prophecies have come to pass.
He warned that there will be more bloodletting and tension in the forthcoming election than was seen in 2015 when Goodluck Jonathan was president.
“Buhari is not Jonathan who went for peace instead of war,” he said.
