The Super Eagles of Nigeria have made the country proud with their excellent performance at the ongoing African Cup Of Nations (AFCON) in Cote d’ivoire. They started their tournament on a rocky note but unexpectedly, the underdogs have now become the favorite to win the AFCON 2023 tournament.
Apart from the skills and tactics the players put into their games, the support received from prominent Nigerians have been a major source of motivation for the players to always go for the goal no matter how difficult it gets.
Especially during the ‘Let’s Do It Again’ campaign before the AFCON tournament, several individuals supported the team across various sectors but prominent among them was Primate Elijah Ayodele, the Leader Of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church who chose to invest his prophetic strength on the Super Eagles team.
Primate Ayodele is one person who has unapologetically supported the Super Eagles team even though sometimes, those at the helm of affairs don’t listen to his counsels but he never stopped for once. During the last AFCON tournament, He said in a press conference that Nigeria will crash out early after the coach didn’t listen to his instructions and truly, they did crash out very early. The coach then thought Primate Ayodele wasn’t patriotic but little did he know that the prophet was showing the team massive support with his advise which are borne out of divine encounter.
