The leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Elijah Ayodele, has raised concerns over what he described as growing public dissatisfaction with the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Northern Nigeria.
According to a report by Leadership on Sunday, April 12, 2026, Ayodele warned that opposition to the ruling party could intensify significantly in the coming months, as public sentiment continues to shift across the region.
He predicted that within the next two months, many residents in the North may openly reject the APC, distancing themselves from its activities, symbols, and campaign materials. The cleric added that such discontent could manifest in acts of hostility toward party property, including the destruction of banners and posters.
Ayodele further cautioned that individuals seen wearing APC-branded items, such as T-shirts and caps, might face backlash from members of the public who are increasingly disillusioned with the party.
He said the situation reflects a deeper level of frustration among residents, noting that dissatisfaction has been building and could soon become more evident in everyday interactions and political engagement.
The cleric also warned that if not properly managed, the rising tension could affect political campaigns and heighten unrest during public activities in the region. He stressed the need for stakeholders to address the concerns of the people to prevent further escalation.
