Popular Nigerian seer and Leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has taken a swipe at President Bola Tinubu for granting presidential pardons to certain individuals he described as criminals.

Primate Ayodele in a statement by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin said:

“Why must he pardon criminals, cocaine pushers? It’s just like wasting the efforts of these security operatives to arrest these criminals. These criminals will continue to cause issues in society; you can’t separate them from crime.”

“Now, since he released these people, why then is Nnamdi Kanu in detention for several years? If these people can be pardoned despite some of their crimes, Nnamdi Kanu should be pardoned too.”

“Release Nnamdi Kanu as you have pardoned other people that have even been sentenced to death and life imprisonment. It’s absolutely wrong and will affect your government.”

“Tinubu should do away with bad advisers, both on the economy and security. They are disappointing and don’t mean well for him. He needs to be very proactive.”
