From Femi Oyelola. Kaduna

Former National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Adebisi Akande on Thursday said that there were serious spiritual threats and political maneuvering to stop the inauguration of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as Nigeria’s President ahead of May 29, 2023.
Speaking in Kaduna as the Chairman of a One-Day Lecture organized by Arewa Think Tank, to celebrate one year of achievements of the administration of President Tinubu, the Elder statesman, however, said, the tension and threats generated in the country by the opposition with the view to deny Tinubu the Presidential victory in the Presidential election were not surprising.
Chief Akande said this was because the opposition had even before independence never wanted a united country, pointing out that, “Since 1953, when a motion for Independence was first moved in Parliament by Chief Tony Enahoro, our polity has been moving from tensions of one threat to another that Nigeria must not be allowed to continue as one and united country”.
According to Akande, “Towards the last elections, the prophecy was thick that Bola Ahmed Tinubu would not become the APC candidate, he did become! Religious clerics of one belief and the other became sleepless for him not to win the presidential elections, he won!
“Thereafter, spiritual threats and political maneuvering began that he would not be inaugurated as a Nigerian president, he assumed the presidency! The battle then shifted to the judicial sword-crossing that he should be removed from the presidency, and his presidency was upheld! Other predictions were that he would have no health to manage the office, but he remained divinely healthy.”
