Ayodele said:
"I want to tell Tinubu straight. If this election goes to runoff, sincerely, you will not win.
"Three things can happen to this election. The election might go to runoff, that might runoff Tinubu."
Beyond the runoff possibility, Ayodele warned that the election could descend into a deeper crisis.
"The election might cause state of emergency, whereby they wanted to stop this election, and there may not be a result. Then three, Tinubu needs prayers. The family of Tinubu listen to a prophet now," he said.

Ayodele's warning on 'casualties', Shettima
The cleric went further, saying Tinubu's insistence on returning for a second term could lead to serious consequences.
"If Tinubu enforces himself to go for second term, I don't know what will happen. I'm not in the hand of that government. There may be casualty. Honestly. And Shettima may not even be allowed," Ayodele said, suggesting Vice-President Kashim Shettima's continued stay in office was also uncertain.
Despite these warnings, Primate Ayodele did not rule out a Tinubu victory, saying the president could still prevail if he took the right steps.
Ayodele on Atiku's chances
Turning to Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) for the 2027 elections, Ayodele said the opposition figure currently had a slight edge in the race but risked squandering it through his own choices.
"As it is now, if they vote, they will not vote Tinubu. Atiku having a little bit of chances. But Atiku have not seen now," he said.
The cleric argued that Atiku's unwillingness to follow what he called divine guidance could prove costly.
"Protocol will kill Atiku. Careful, Atiku will kill Atiku. And if they now allow Tinubu, I'm saying it, it may establish my prophecy, right? But God loves Atiku, Atiku did not love himself," he said.
Ayodele rounded off his address by appealing to President Tinubu to reflect on the possible consequences of his political ambitions.
He said:
"Honestly, Tinubu could have been the best, but Tinubu did not see that there's always revenge, nemesis.
"For anything we are looking for in this world, let's watch carefully."
