Tobi Arayomi, twin brother of the RIG Nation spiritual leader, had alleged that the arrest was politically-motivated, owing to “inciting prophecies” made by his brother during the 2023 elections.

The secret police, however, did not comment on the reason for the arrest at the time.

On a day the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) is delivering its judgment on electoral disputes involving President Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, Prophet Arayomi shared a cryptic social media post.

He published a clip with the accompanying caption on his verified X (formerly Twitter) handle:

“I saw men in Nigeria gathering to tear up the constitution to favour their own wickedness. Nigeria, your setback is a set-up! Nigeria judiciary on trial.”

His words:

“Men shall say 'look what the wicked leaders are doing to the constitution of Nigeria. They are abusing it. These men are wicked'. But I (God) would say, ‘I do a new thing, in a new Nigeria, and you won’t see immediately'. But suddenly, it shall spring forth.’”
