Primate Elijah Ayodele, the Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has called on the people of Taraba State to embrace peace and pray for the success of Governor Agbu Kefas.
This comes in the wake of the governor’s recent appointment of a first-class Chief of Takum, a position that had been vacant for over 28 years.
The appointment has faced opposition from some tribes in the state. In his advice, Primate Ayodele urged the aggrieved tribes not to oppose the new king, emphasizing that the appointment would bring peace, happiness, and joy to the state.
In a statement by his media aide, Oluwatosin Osho, Ayodele said: “The people of Taraba should embrace Governor Agbu Kefas.
The issue of the new king must not cause issues because it will bring peace, happiness, and joy. Anyone who fights about the new king is an enemy of the state. Kefas is God’s project who has come to Taraba to do good for the people.”
Primate Ayodele reiterated that the kingship installation should not lead to a crisis, as the governor’s intentions are to benefit the state.
He called on traditional rulers to reign with the fear of God and to act righteously.
“In the next 10 months, the governor will do so much for the youths, old people, and the vulnerable. Let us wait and see.
The governor hasn’t come to mislead you but to do it better. The kingship isn’t an issue; let there be peace in the state. Everyone should start praying for the governor’s success.
The kings should be careful, do the right thing, and rule with the fear of God,” he said.
