Bandits set to block Lagos‑Ibadan Expressway, warns Primate Ayodele

The leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, warned that bandits could block the Lagos‑Ibadan Expressway in July or August.

Ayodele urged security agencies to remain vigilant.

He made the statement while addressing his congregation on Sunday.

The cleric said, “Lagos‑Ibadan expressway, I don’t know the exact time, but it’s either July or August. Bandits will block the road. Lagos‑Ibadan expressway.”

“They will block the road. So the security agencies need to take this into account.”

The Lagos‑Ibadan Expressway is a major highway that links Lagos to many states in the South‑West and to the northern region of Nigeria.

Ayodele has previously criticized the Federal Government for the country’s security problems, saying it is not living up to its constitutional responsibility of keeping citizens safe.
