The family of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has warned clerics and prophets, particularly the leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, to focus on serving God and stop disparaging their son in the name of prophesy.
The warning is coming on the heels of Saturday’s prophesy by Ayodele where he reportedly told Kanu to “beg the Nigerian government or die in jail.”
Kanu’s family spoke as the Association of Igbo Town Unions, ASITU, commended the recent decision by the South East governors to approach President Bola Tinubu to seek the release of Kanu and urged them to put more effort to actualise his freedom.
Primate Ayodele during the launch of his 30th “Warning to the Nations” at his church in Lagos, said: “Kanu should beg the government before he is released or else he will die in jail.”But piqued by the comment credited to the Primate, Kanu’s family asked him to focus on his church and stop making provocative utterances against the IPOB leader under the guise of prophesy.
Kanu’s younger brother, Kanunta Kanu, in a statement yesterday, told the Primate to “stop deceiving gullible minds with purported prophesies that have nothing to do with God.”
He also told the cleric to focus on his calling and stop seeking relevance through misdirected and provocative comments on Kanu.
Kanu’s family warned seers “to keep their visions to themselves” and stop using their son’s name “to seek public attention and draw traffic.”
Kanunta reminded the Primate that “God whose mouthpiece he is claiming to be is a God of justice who does not punish the innocent.”
According to him, Kanu committed no crime but was unjustly incarcerated simply for demanding justice and fair treatment for his oppressed Biafra people.
“Ayodele should be courageous enough to tell the world what God said about the murderous invasion of our family home that resulted in the death of our parents and the murder of 28 other innocent visitors to our home. The righteous God I know cannot count the masterminds of this atrocity guiltless and hold their victim accountable.”
