Religious leader Primate Elijah Ayodele of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church warns that bandits may attempt to block the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway in July or August. The warning is issued during a Sunday service at the church’s headquarters, and video of his remarks is shared publicly. Ayodele does not give an exact date, but says the incident could occur in “July/August” and urges security agencies to increase vigilance. The Lagos–Ibadan Expressway is described by the outlets as one of Nigeria’s busiest transport routes, linking Lagos with South-West states and connecting further to northern parts of the country. One outlet notes that, as of the time of reporting, neither the Nigeria Police Force nor the Federal Government has released an official response or security advisory based on the prophecy. The warning is presented against a backdrop of heightened concerns about banditry and kidnapping moving into parts of the South-West, including worries linked to attacks on schools in Oyo State.
