The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has raised concerns over the possibility of fraudulent polling arrangements during the 2027 general election.

In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, the cleric alleged that fake polling units and voting booths could be established in different parts of the country as part of attempts to manipulate the electoral process.

Ayodele warned that unsuspecting voters could be affected if such arrangements were allowed to take place.

He therefore urged the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to pay close attention to the alleged development, warning that failure to address it could negatively affect the credibility of the election.

According to the cleric, plans to manipulate the election have already been put in place, with the alleged creation of fake polling units, booths and electoral materials forming part of the strategy.

“For the upcoming election in Nigeria, I am seeing a lot of fake things regarding the election which the INEC must take seriously. I am seeing fake polling units and booths spread across the country to weaken the votes of some individuals and rig some people out.”

“The commission must ensure they take this very seriously because it will have a negative effect on the election. Let the commission work hard in this area and ensure people are well-informed; if not, it will happen successfully.”

Ayodele further predicted that the 2027 presidential election would be highly competitive, while expressing doubts over INEC’s level of preparedness.

He called on the commission’s chairman to strengthen its operations and ensure that the electoral process is credible, warning that failure to do so could have consequences for him.

“INEC hasn’t shown readiness for this coming election. They don’t know what is coming, but I want to urge the chairman to put his house in order and deliver a credible election because there will be issues if he doesn’t. He will be affected personally. The election will be very tough, unlike the ones we have had in the past,” he added.
