Speaking in an exclusice chat with Sunday Sun,
the founder of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Lagos, Primate Elijah
Babatunde Ayodele, said that the relationship between President
Muhammadu Buhari and the Senate would become more acrimonious adding
that even the national assembly will have serious battle with the
President.
“The Senate will have serious battles with Buhari. The
government will take several decisive steps to rubbish a lot of people
politically. There are a lot of forces working against this government."
The influential cleric also dosclosed that the present
administration is not finding solutions to the challenges facing the
country because there are a lot of hidden forces working against the
government.
"The government wants to do well but it is hindered by hidden
forces working against it. That is why the government must take good
care to neutralize the problem. Until they do it, the administration
cannot move forward.
"That is why the government is not getting solutions to many
things. There are forces working against it. They have to properly
identify the forces, otherwise...”
Speaking further, Primate Ayodele, said that Nigerians should not
have been shocked by the Gestapo-style crackdown on justices of the
Supreme Court and judges of the Federal High Court and some state High
Courts by the Department of State Services (DSS), as what happened was
foretold.
The cleric recalled his predictions on 2016 made in December 2015,
when he said that the judiciary would face a travail following the
indictment of some judges. Back then, the primate had said: “Let’s hope and pray that we do not lose any judge or that lawyers don’t go on strike. Some judges will be indicted.”
In what can easily be interpreted as a fulfillment of the
prediction, the DSS on October of 7 and 8, this year, raided the homes
of some judges in a brazen manner and arrested nine of them on
allegation of taking shocking sums of money, in both local and foreign
currencies as bribe and other related misconduct.
But what has happened so far, is just a tip of the iceberg as
Ayodele emphatically said that judicial officers should expect more
stormy seas ahead of them: “There will continue to be trouble in the
judiciary. A lot of what will come out of the judiciary will not
promote the image of the country.”
