Lead Pastor of Dominion Hall Citadel Global, Tunde Bakare, has asked those scheming against the National leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to stop doing so.

The pastor, whose church was formerly called the Latter Rain Assembly believes such people are demonising and scheming against Tinubu because of his past. Like Tinubu, Bakare is known to be interested in the future leadership of Nigeria.

In a recent sermon monitored by POLITICS NIGERIA, he tackled issues that many exploit to criticise Tinubu, including the claim that he eats billions from taxation in Lagos. According to Bakare, the APC could not have won the 2015 and 2019 election without Tinubu.

He added that no other person had achieved for the South-West what Tinubu had, especially what he did between 1999 and 2007. He told those he called Tinubu’s traducers to eat their humble pie and work with him.

Making references to some instances in the Bible, the pastor also noted that fighting Tinubu because of his alleged Iragbiji ancestry was mundane. In a video bearing the sermon, Bakare said: "Accept your humble pie. Eat it. When you were sleeping, Asiwaju was working day and night. He secured Lagos. He secured Ogun. He secured Osun. He secured Ondo. He secured Edo, and you say he is nobody. You are ode (a fool). You think he laboured that much to say, ‘Çome and take.’ No, he is not a fool."

"Stop all this nonsense about ancestry. You will kill your heroes and those who can deliver you and nothing will happen. All of these sakabula leaders, they don’t have machine guns. By sakabula, I mean dane guns. I am not a friend of anybody. Ojo o b’enikan sota, eni eji ri leji pa. (I am like the rain that has no enemy, thus drenching whoever it encounters.)".

Bakare noted that some Yoruba elders were plotting some alternative political re-engineering which, he argued, would not work without Tinubu. According to him, the former Governor of Lagos State’s structure will swallow such because he had worked ahead.

Bakare added, "Stop plotting, scheming against someone. He has his past, you have yours. Even Pope has a past. Don’t let me expose your men of God o, because they all have a past. And before I expose them I should look inward too, because I have my past and you too do. If you have no past, you have no future."

"I will defend the right of even my enemy when they have that right. Has he done something with power? Yes. Has he done all things right? No, but he did his best. You can’t give more than what you have. Therefore, let’s sit around the table and say: These are the challenges. Do you know how long ago I told the Yoruba elders to do this? Over 10 years ago. They are now going around. Milling around him. We are going to fix this country, and nobody has the monopoly of wisdom to do it."

"I know what I am saying. Today we create a lot of backlash on social media. Call me names. I know my names. Say what you like about me, but let’s fix it."

According to Bakare, there were many who even did evils as recorded by the Bible, whom God used because they turned around. He gave their examples, including David.

"He said, ‘Oh, you don’t know what Asiwaju has done? Oh, he is making money from taxation. Why don’t you make yours? If the system allows it, and he exploited that system to his own advantage."

Tinubu is one of the most influential and controversial politicians in the current era. Although he emerged from the private sector, he moved relatively fast on the political ladder, arguably helped by the prominent role he played during the June 12 struggles.

To be honest, I really think Tinubu is the only southern politician that can hold this country together. In as much as no politician is perfect, I strongly believe he has the political toughness to be independent in thought and action.

I agree with Bakare on this one..

We will do #endsars for INEC and National Assembly before them go that electoral reform bill before them. Before the last National Election them be do as if na BUBU de delay the age of that bill. Now see them.

Nigerians are tired of these old sets of politicians. We need something different.

Tinubu we dont want you. That's all

Pastor Tunde don collect brown envelope.

Really

Ok

Money has changed hands. This Kontri sef. Truly everyone has a price.

They are regrouping again.

Tinubu has done is own part..

If the ticket is coming to the south in 2023, then it’s all up to all southern political leaders to work together or slack make another dummy from North grab the ticket..

The interesting thing about this video is that Bakare is never a fan of Tinubu. He's just saying what is obvious.

One Of the reasonS NIGERIANS ARE AGAINST HIM (TINUBU) IS BECAUSE HE WAS ONE OF THOSE WHO BROUGHT THIS PRESENT EVIL ISTRATION ON NIGERIANS,


NIGERIANS ARE NOW IN SO MUCH HARDSHIP ,INSECURERITY HAS INCREASED AND HERE YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT 2023,


NIGERIANS ARE AFTER THIER SURVIVAL.





I THANK JESUS FOR WEALTH AND LIFE

Am tiired of this country abeg.AJE

look at who is talking , chameleon

Call me names, I know my name - Tunde Bakare

Endsars and those who led the attack on Tinubu will be so disappointed.

As you can see, there is a grand plan to silence him, not for any fault of his, but out of envy and jealousy

Thunder of 2021 will fire you there. Idiot! Do you think this one is the one you did against GEJ and now look at where it landed us. I lost regards for u Long time ago regardless of who you re or position you occupy. Be warn!

All these deceivers parading as men of God, hmm

Go and create your own na

Tinubu will make a good President but APC should have mercy on Igbos and give us the Presidency.

he has been a deceiver since, and he is still one, not genuine, he changes his colors to fit well

You are pained

Tinubu has his faults, yes, but he's worked ahead of all he's enjoying today. Bakare, who's known as anti-tinubu, singing his praises now means he's seen how far tinubu has went and he couldn't hide the truths anymore. I would suggest tinubu Osinbajo in 2023 as the president. Some persons are destined as kingmakers, not kings which tinubu is a typical example of.
