Primate Ayodele releases prophecies on Cameroon, Uganda, Côte d’Ivoire, others

Published

on

The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has released prophecies regarding the elections in some countries, including Cameroon, Uganda, Côte d’Ivoire, Malawi, and Tanzania.

In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, he revealed some events that will unfold before, during, and after the election.

In Cote D’ivoire, the prophet stated that the president will do everything within his power to return as the president.

He stated that the opposition will eventually shy away from contesting.

Primate Ayodele said: “The President of Côte d’Ivoire, Ouattara, will do everything legally and constitutionally possible to be elected. Those who can defeat him will be delisted, and in the end, some will get angry and fail to contest.

“This is where the opposition will fail and not get it right. This is where the opposition will be misinformed and give the man another chance. The opposition will only protest; the president is ready for anything. He is a stooge for France, and they will back him up. A lot of things will go wrong in the election; there will be violence, and people will be praying for a coup.”

In Uganda, Primate Ayodele stated that it is only God who can remove Museveni and his family from power because he has positioned himself to be in power for life.

“Uganda: Museveni will hold Bobi Wine to ransom. He will contest again but won’t win. Museveni will still win no matter what; he will do all that is needed to win the election. Uganda wants to run a one-party system, and only God can remove the family of Museveni from power because he has positioned himself to be a life president,” he said.

In Cameroon, Primate Ayodele stated that the opposition will shun the election and give Paul Biya a landslide victory. However, he made it known that the president would not complete his tenure.

“Cameroon: What is happening in Côte d’Ivoire will happen in Cameroon. The opposition will want to shun the election and give Paul Biya power to win a landslide victory. Biya will go all out to win, but he will not finish his tenure.

“He will be another president to die on the throne. Notwithstanding, these old presidents—if they continue to rule—some of them will start dying. Biya has mortgaged Cameroon, and the Anglophone areas will continue to suffer until they pull out.”

In Malawi, Primate Ayodele foresees massive protest against the government, while stating that the current vice president will pull out at some point to contest for the position of a president. He also foresees a new vice president coming up.

“Malawi: There is going to be a protest against the Malawian government. There will be a lot of crises and problems in the country. The country will be unstable and fluctuating. They will rise against the president; he needs a lot of prayers for good health.

“There is a need for the country to be stable economically and politically. They need a lot of prayers to succeed and actualize their vision. The current vice president will pull out from the government to contest for the position of president, as I see another vice president coming up. However, the incoming vice president will have issues with the president.”

Likewise, in Tanzania, Primate Ayodele foresees clashes between the opposition and the current president. He also warned against the Ebola crisis in the country.

“Tanzania: The opposition will do a lot to fight the Tanzanian president. The woman will go all out to fight the opposition, and I see her frustrating the opposition. She is desperate to win the election and believes she’s being cheated because of her gender.

“She will deal with the opposition regardless of who they may be or what they want to achieve. I see disaster and Ebola recurring in the country. There will be mass protests against the president.”

Trump administration cuts energy projects, freezes New York funding

Published

on

The Trump administration has announced plans to terminate dozens of clean energy projects and freeze billions of dollars for major projects in New York, intensifying a stand-off with Democrats over a US government shutdown.

US media outlets described the moves announced by the energy and transportation departments as part of the administration’s efforts to pressure Democrats in Congress to agree on a deal to end the shutdown.

US President Donald Trump had raced to enact hard-right policies even before the shutdown began after midnight on Tuesday, threatening mass firings and to slash government departments, and blaming Democrats for Congress’ failure to resolve a funding stand-off.

The Department of Energy announced on Thursday “the termination of 321 financial awards supporting 223 projects, resulting in a savings of approximately $7.56 billion for American taxpayers.”

It said in a statement that those projects — overseen by the Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations, the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy and other bodies — “did not adequately advance the nation’s energy needs… and would not provide a positive return on investment of taxpayer dollars.”

However, recipients of federal funding have 30 days to appeal against a termination decision, and some have already begun the process, the statement said.

It did not list the projects in question.

In a post on social media platform X, Russell Vought, who heads the powerful Office of Management and Budget, called the slashed projects “Green New Scam funding” that was used to advance “the Left’s climate agenda”.

He listed the states affected by the decision. They include California, New York and 14 others — all blue states where Trump failed to win in the 2024 presidential elections.

California Governor Gavin Newsom said the Trump administration had decided to cancel “up to $1.2 billion” slated for a major hydrogen energy project, threatening tens of thousands of jobs.

“In Trump’s America, energy policy is set by the highest bidder, economics and common sense be damned,” Newsom said in a statement, vowing to keep pursuing a “clean energy strategy… no matter what DC tries to dictate.”

In New York — the home state of top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries — the Department of Transportation announced on Wednesday it was freezing nearly $18 billion in federal funding for two major infrastructure projects, the Second Avenue subway and Hudson Tunnel.

The move takes aim at diversity, equity and inclusion policies, according to the department’s statement, saying that subsidizing projects with “race- and sex-based contracting requirements… is unconstitutional, counter to civil rights laws, and a waste of taxpayer resources.”

The funds would be frozen until a “quick administrative review is complete,” it said.

“Thanks to the Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries shutdown, however, USDOT’s review of New York’s unconstitutional practices will take more time,” it added, saying that the department “has been forced to furlough the civil rights staff responsible for conducting this review.”

New York Governor Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, said in a statement that halting funding for “critical infrastructure projects” was “political payback and an attack on New York.”

“Donald Trump has been clear: he is intent on using his reckless government shutdown to hurt the American people,” she said.

The vice president also showcased Nigeria’s $200 billion energy transition opportunities to global investors and assured members of the Nigerian diaspora of continued engagement in the Tinubu administration’s policies and programmes.

He later proceeded to Germany for further strategic meetings before returning to the country.

Lagos unveils artisan certification to curb building collapse

Published

on

The Lagos State Materials Testing Laboratory has launched a new certification and training programme for artisans in the construction industry as part of efforts to stem the spate of building collapses in the state.

The initiative, known as the Certified Structural Integrated Programme, was unveiled at a stakeholders’ forum held in Ese-Offin and Badagry, where block moulders, bricklayers, concrete mixers, steel fabricators and welders converged to pledge support for safer construction practices.

In a statement on Thursday by the Lagos Government, General Manager of LSMTL, Olayinka Abdul, said the programme marked a decisive step in tackling recurring tragedies linked to substandard construction materials.

“Without artisans, there is no construction. But with you, we have the power to ensure every construction is safe, sound, and secure. We need to earnestly curb episodes of collapse in high-water-prone communities, and we do not want such in your community. It ends today,” he said.

According to the statement, the CSIP is a five-year assessment programme aimed at certifying construction materials as fit-for-purpose.

It will also produce an official directory of approved block moulders, concrete mixers and steel fabricators, to whom developers will be directed for supplies.

“This is not just about enforcement; it is about partnership and empowerment. Together, we can forge an unbreakable alliance that makes Lagos a model for building safety and integrity,” Abdul added.

Technical experts at the forum highlighted the scientific backing for the initiative. Director of the Soil and Geotechnics Unit, Engr. Abimbola Adebayo, stressed the need for mandatory soil tests before construction.

Similarly, Kayode Akinfeleye of the Technical Services Department advised builders to ensure architectural drawings are obtained and preserved, describing them as “a core requirement in the Lagos building process.”

Artisan guild leaders welcomed the initiative. Chairman of the National Association of Block Moulders of Nigeria, Alhaji Fabiyi Oyeleke, described frequent collapses as “disheartening” and commended the forum as a step in the right direction.

On his part, Chairman of the Lagos State Bricklayers Association, Mr. Fashina Aro, noted the peculiarities of Lagos’s swampy terrain and urged all stakeholders to ensure materials and soil tests are completed before bricklayers commence work on any site.

Building collapse has been a persistent challenge in Lagos, with many lives lost and substantial property damage over the years.

In recent incidents, emergency responders have had to rescue workers from collapsed structures.

PUNCH Online reports that rescue teams pulled eight workers from the debris of a collapsed building in September.

Reports by the Building Collapse Prevention Guild show Lagos accounts for about 55% of recorded building collapse incidents in Nigeria over the past several decades.

In response, Lagos has taken steps to strengthen bodies like the Lagos State Building Control Agency, enhancing enforcement, monitoring, and regulation of building standards.
