Baba Obasanjo Is Nigeria’s Problem —pastor Tunde Bakare by Johnnyessence(m): 5:00pm On Nov 17, 2014
PASTOR and founder of Latter Rain Assembly in
Lagos, Pastor Tunde Bakare, on Sunday, said
former president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, would
be told some home truth in Abeokuta, the Ogun
State capital.
Bakare said this was necessary before the nation
collapses on him (OBJ), accusing him of being
responsible for the numerous problems Nigeria is
passing through now.
The cleric, who spoke about the lofty dreams of
the country’s founding fathers, as well as his
growing up and personal dreams for same Nigeria,
but which had become unattainable due to antics
of some cabals, strongly canvassed that a
transition arrangement be put in place, stressing
that holding election in 2015 was not feasible
because of Boko Haram insurgency.
Bakare said this while speaking with newsmen,
shortly after delivering a speech, entitled: “The
Nigeria of My Dream” at a well attended church
service to celebrate his 60th birthday.
Former governor of Ogun State, Chief Gbenga
Daniel, was among the dignitaries that attended
the service, which took place at the Latter Rain
Assembly in Ogba, Lagos.
The pastor, who said he would be a keynote
speaker at the 176th anniversary of International
Student Day, courtesy of Ogun State government,
said: “He who wants to hear, let him hear. I am
going to drum what needs to be drummed. I think
Obasanjo needs to hear some things before the
house collapses on him, because he is responsible
for the problems we face now.”
The event, holding at the Cultural Centre, is
expected to be attended by dignitaries, including
the former head of state, Major-General
Muhammadu Buhari, who is also a presidential
aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives
Congress (APC); Professor Pat Utomi, among
others.
Speaking further, Pastor Bakare, who is also the
convener of Save Nigeria Group (SNG), while
expressing fears about the possibility of holding
2015 general election, contended that it was better
that the country took care of 2014 before talking
about 2015.
According to him, there is no wisdom holding an
election without dealing with the fundamental
problems of the country, suggesting that what
should be of concern now should be how to put in
place a transition government, with a mandate of a
maximum of two years, during which it would
address the problems confronting the country
currently.
Bakare, who insisted that the current security
challenges in the country did not support holding a
nationwide poll in 2015, declared that “it appears
we are putting the cart before the horse. With the
situation in the country, I do not think our primary
concern should be 2015 elections. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=778972748831244&id=378378918890631&refid=28&_ft_=qid.6082700627075139125%3Amf_story_key.574224757350749809&__tn__=%2As

baba Obj should be held responsible for not allowing
Nigerians to elect their leaders by conducting the
worst rigged election that produce this clueless
gej on Nigeria as vice president and when yar
adua dies this clueless gej who became president
couldn't provide security for ordinary Nigerians
therefore allowing Nigeria to be a killing field And
bokoharam kills at ease as if the primary aim of
government is no longer security . And all
government officials and their hungry supporters
do is to blame the North As if that is the
solution. Corruption is at its highest peak. looting
of government fund is the other of the day
