The brutal killing of Nigeria’s former head of state Tafawa Balewa, according to Primate Elijah Ayodele of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, is to blame for the unrest in the nation.
According to Primate Ayodele, Tafawa Balewa’s murder placed a curse on the nation that will always have an impact on its political stability.
He revealed this while discussing the origins of Nigeria’s security issues.
The clergyman claimed that if Nigeria is to remain united and experience stability, the curse must be broken in a statement made by his media assistant, Oluwatosin Osho.
He mentioned that praying to God can break the curse.
According to Ayodele: “The murder of Tafawa Balewa has placed a curse on Nigeria which is affecting the political activities of the country.
“If the country doesn’t address this, we will continue to have crisis and our political progress will be affected.
“We will still be having several problems on our political arrangement.
“If we don’t want Nigeria to break in the nearest future, let us reverse Tafawa Balewa’s curse.
“It’s time for the government to address the real issue for Nigeria to be united again. We need prayers to reverse the curse otherwise it will continue to threaten the future of Nigeria.”
