2027 Elections: There’ll be fake polling booths stationed for rigging –Primate Ayodele warns

The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has warned that the upcoming 2027 Nigerian elections will feature fake polling units and booths, designed to facilitate rigging. In a statement, Ayodele claimed that these fraudulent polling stations will be set up across the country, targeting unsuspecting voters.

Ayodele's media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, reported that the fake polling units will be created to weaken the votes of certain individuals and rig the election in their favor. He urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to take the matter seriously, stating that a lack of preparedness could have a negative impact on the election.

According to Ayodele, the plans for rigging the election have already been made, with fake polling booths and electoral materials being part of the implementation. He emphasized that INEC must address this issue urgently, as it could have severe consequences for the election's credibility.

The man of God also warned that the presidential election will be particularly challenging, and INEC has not shown the necessary readiness for the upcoming vote. He called on the INEC chairman to take action and ensure a credible election, or he will face personal repercussions. Ayodele expressed his belief that the election will be tough, unlike previous ones, due to the presence of these fraudulent polling units.
