The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, on Friday claimed that some Nigerian bishops who recently endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for a second term were motivated by hunger.

In a statement issued by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele alleged that the bishops’ decision was driven by personal interests rather than divine instruction.

The cleric criticised the bishops while advising President Bola Ahmed Tinubu against becoming too excited by the endorsements, which he described as fake.

“Bishops endorsing President Tinubu are hungry and looking for what to eat. They didn’t do that endorsement because they love Tinubu but because they need some things from him. They just want to secure their next meal, and that is why they are singing the praises of the president. The president must exercise caution before expressing joy over the endorsement because it is totally fake.”

He further alleged that the endorsements were not based on divine direction, accusing the bishops of invoking God’s name for personal gain.

“They are not doing it based on divine orders or God’s direction; there is no way God would give such direction. They are only lying on God’s name because of food; it’s such a bad thing that these bishops reduced the name of God to this level.”

Primate Ayodele also addressed politicians who have endorsed President Tinubu for another term, saying they were similarly motivated by personal interests.

“Even politicians who are singing the praises of President Tinubu and endorsing him for a second term are not doing it for the love of the president; they are all doing it for selfish interests. They are not different from these bishops.

“If President Tinubu doesn’t give them what they want, they will be the first people to turn against him and endorse another person.”

The cleric further advised President Tinubu not to rely on the endorsements, stressing that they would not guarantee his return to office for a second term.

He said the president’s performance and actions in office would ultimately determine whether Nigerians would support him for another term.

“President Tinubu must know that endorsements cannot get him anywhere near a second term if he doesn’t perform well for the people. Endorsements mean nothing; it is only his activities that can either secure or make him lose a second term in office. It would be better if he buckled up and put his house in order instead of allowing these endorsements to get into his head.”
