In a recent Facebook video, Primate Elijah Ayodele, the Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, delivered a prophetic warning concerning Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of Kogi Central, highlighting potential challenges she may face in the National Assembly.
The cleric’s message, which has since circulated widely on social media, suggested that some of these obstacles might originate from Akpoti herself rather than from Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
Speaking earnestly to his congregation, Ayodele said, "Natasha, you will face another challenge in the house; it may not be due to Akpabio, but rather because of you."
The statement underscores a recurring theme in Ayodele’s prophecies, where public figures are cautioned to navigate their paths with prudence and awareness of potential self-inflicted difficulties.
The spiritual leader emphasized the importance of self-restraint, urging Senator Akpoti to exercise caution in her political engagements.
He advised, "You are warned, Natasha, calm down, watch out, take a little step." According to Ayodele, such vigilance is critical to preventing the emergence of conflicts that could impede her legislative effectiveness or political standing.
Ayodele’s prophecy comes at a time when the Kogi lawmaker has been under intense scrutiny following her suspension from the Senate earlier this year.
While her suspension was reportedly linked to violations of Senate rules, her recent attempts to resume duties have been met with administrative hurdles, fueling speculation about underlying tensions within the upper chamber.
The cleric clarified that the challenges Akpoti might face do not necessarily stem from external opposition or direct interference from Senate President Akpabio. Instead, he stressed that her own decisions and actions could inadvertently create obstacles.
By highlighting personal accountability, Ayodele’s warning places the responsibility squarely on the lawmaker to navigate the political landscape with prudence and care.
Political analysts note that such internal challenges are not uncommon in Nigeria’s National Assembly, where legislative duties often intersect with intricate party politics, personal ambitions, and procedural intricacies.
Ayodele’s cautionary words suggest that a proactive approach, rather than reactive measures, may help Akpoti mitigate potential conflicts and enhance her effectiveness as a legislator.
In addition to his warnings, the cleric called on the senator to maintain composure amid political turbulence.
According to him, overreactions or hasty decisions could escalate minor disagreements into major confrontations, potentially damaging both her career and her party’s cohesion.
Observers have also pointed out that Ayodele’s message reflects a broader narrative within Nigerian politics, where legislators must balance personal ambitions with institutional expectations.
The emphasis on self-awareness and measured action resonates with the experiences of many lawmakers who have navigated complex political terrains in the past he said.
