Come After Me If You Can, Bakare Dares Top FG Official

Serving Overseer of Citadel Global Community Church, formerly
called The Latter Rain Assembly Lagos, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has
dared an unidentified official of the Federal Government to come
after him based on his recent public pronouncements.

Speaking on Sunday during a sermon in his church, Bakare said:
“I dare you to come after me since that is the usual style now. You
might have done it to others; you are about to learn a lesson if
you touch me.”

He added: “If you know what I have done in secret, bring it to
the open. I dare you to come after me if you can. I worked with
you; I worked for you; I supported you to get there (where you
are). When I talk now, I now have a smelly mouth.

“I’m not interested in meeting you any longer; no more visits.
Now, it is war, because Nigeria must be set free.”

He also berated the Federal Government for clamping down on
leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu and Yoruba
Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho.

Rather than work towards justice, he accused the Federal
Government of using intimidation and brutality.

Bakare, who was running mate to President Muhammadu Buhari on
the platform of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC)
in 2011, recalled how he backed the unnamed top official to his
current position.

Addressing the official, Bakare added: “Have you forgotten that
you vowed never to contest again. I said ‘not so’. I showed you how
you can win the next election and you agreed to run and you won. I
was not considering myself but concerned about how Nigeria can
become great.

“Winning an election is a different thing; doing the right thing
is another. No one must behave as if Nigeria is a personal
property. Nigeria must be set free and any obstruction along the
way must be removed; it must get out of the way.”

He told Nigerians to be prepared for baton of change, recalling
how he pronounced the late Gen Sani Abacha’s days numbered during
his fist rule.

“I don’t support any act of violence, taking up arms against the
country and killing people. Those are in the realm of criminality
and anybody doing that must be brought to book,” Bakare stated to a
rousing round of prayers and declarations.
