Popular cleric Primate Elijah Ayodele has set social media abuzz after issuing a striking prophecy about Nigeria’s future.
The outspoken religious leader claimed that mosquitoes would completely disappear from the country by the year 2033, a declaration that has left many Nigerians amused, puzzled and actively debating its plausibility.
“In 2033, there will be no mosquito in Nigeria,” Ayodele said, urging skeptics to simply take note of the prediction. “Don’t believe it, just write it down and keep it. If you’re alive then, you will see it,” he added.
The remark quickly went viral, prompting a wave of reactions online. While some Nigerians questioned how such an outcome could occur, others responded with humor, asking whether malaria would also vanish along with mosquitoes.
Social media users wasted little time sharing their thoughts, with many describing the statement as one of the cleric’s boldest prophecies yet. One user commented, “No be only mosquito, na malaria. Nigeria pastors and yeye prophecy,” while another wrote, “We’ll bookmark this one till 2033.”
The prophecy comes shortly after Ayodele publicly warned President Bola Tinubu against appointing defecting governors—particularly from the North—into his administration, claiming such decisions could spark serious political backlash.
Whether taken seriously or viewed as lighthearted speculation, the declaration has once again ignited online discussion, with Nigerians marking the year 2033 and waiting to see how the prediction unfolds.
