Pastor Bakare Makes U-Turn On President Buhari

Pastor Bakare has made a U-turn on President Buhari.

AN24 News reports that Tunde Bakare, the senior pastor of Citadel Global Community Church located in Lagos, has said he did not declare war against President Muhammadu Buhari but against wicked people in Nigeria.

This is coming after Pastor Bakare who had revealed last week that he had visited President Buhari on several occasions to advise him on national issues but the president often failed to heed his advice, said “I’m not interested in meeting you any longer; no more visits. Now, it is war because Nigeria must be set free.”

In his sermon on Sunday, the fiery preacher, however, said he declared war against the wicked in the country not Mr Buhari, his longstanding ally.

Speaking further, Pastor Bakare, who once claimed God told him Mr Buhari was coming to stabilise the country, said “if because of insecurity and corruption, we voted Jonathan out and now insecurity is worse, corruption is much more deadly now, what do you think should happen?

“I’m not pitching you against anybody. I don’t control your PVC. But if the reason for voting PDP out is because of insecurity and corruption, and now it is worse, in fact added to it is banditry, kidnapping.”

AN24 News recalls that Pastor Bakare led a coalition of civil society organisations, Save Nigeria Group, which railed against then-President Goodluck Jonathan and his party, the Peoples Democratic Party, in the run up to the 2015 general elections.

Furthermore, Pastor Bakare said the increasing insecurity and corruption in the country should prod the President to swing to action to preserve his legacy, adding that the war he declared last week was not against President Buhari.

This is why we are crying out so that before it is too late, Muhammadu Buhari can wear his thinking cap and think of his legacy, rise up and say this will not be my legacy. I’m going to flush out every bad eggs. Everyone diverting money meant for arms and ammunitions must be brought to book whether in the past or present,” he said.

“We must wage this war. This is the war we must wage and fight. It is one thing to desire power, it is another thing to know how to use it. Mr President it is not about you. Let no one deceive you. It is about 200 million people whose lives are at risk, who are being kidnapped, whose wives and daughter are being raped daily, who are being devastated. It is not about you. When I declared war last Sunday, it’s about the wicked, those perverting justice in our land. Their days are numbered.”
