The Lagos-based Man of God said this in a statement by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, and issued to the media on Tuesday.
Primate Ayodele warned Governor Makinde not to allow his state to burn because the proposal has the ability to throw the state into turmoil and a long-lasting religious crisis.
The man of God made it known that Sharia law isn’t appropriate in Yorubaland and it is only going to rubbish the government of Makinde because he won’t be able to sustain it.
He noted that it won’t be relevant or make any sensible impact in the country.
Ayodele said: “The proposed establishment of Sharia law isn’t appropriate in Yorubaland and this is going to cause nuisance to the government.
“Seyi Makinde should be careful not to ruin Oyo State because they won’t be able to sustain it.
“This will lead to a religious crisis and doesn’t have any relevance.
“Our leaders just start on a good note and end it badly.
“It is not in people’s interest, it’s a means to cause division.
“It will be a disaster for the state and country.
“The governor needs to address it urgently; it’s not reasonable and sensible.”
Primate Ayodele stated that Nigerian leaders need to understand the instruments of development and that Sharia law isn’t one of them, rather it’s an instrument of division.
He added: “Sharia law will make no sensible impact on the country; we don’t have leaders that understand the instrument that will bring development.
“Sharia law will bring no development into the country, just like the reliance on crude oil too that won’t create any significant improvement.
“All we should be thinking about is development but instead of the government of Oyo to think of development, they are dragging religion into the system.”
