Primate Elijah Ayodele, the spiritual leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, had earlier prophesied that the Super Eagles of Nigeria would not make significant progress in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). According to the cleric, the team would face difficulties and possibly crash out early due to internal issues and poor preparation.
However, this prophecy came under heavy scrutiny and online discussion following Nigeria's recent 2–1 victory, with Ademola Lookman scoring the decisive winning goal. The match, seen as a turning point for the team, contradicted the spiritual leader’s earlier message and sparked reactions across social media platforms.
Many Nigerians questioned the authenticity and reliability of such spiritual predictions in sports, while others defended the cleric, saying prophecies can be reversed through prayer or change in circumstances.
As the tournament continues, the public remains keenly observant of both the team’s performance and the accuracy of high-profile predictions.
