LAGOS—CONVENER of Save Nigeria Group, Pastor Tunde Bakare, yesterday, vowed to mobilise 12 million Nigerians to campaign against the candidacy of erstwhile military President, General Ibrahim Babangida in next year’s election.

Delivering a lecture entitled The Interplay of Religion in the Leadership Failings in Nigeria—Which Way 2011?” at the seventh annual Adeleke Adejobi Foundation public lecture in Lagos, the fiery gospel preacher and social crusader, said: “If it remains the last drop of my blood, I will resist the candidacy of Gen. Ibrahim Babangida.”

Continuing, Bakare vowed that IBB will not be allowed to rule this country again, “because he annulled the freest and fairest election in the history of the country and now without feeling remorse about his action, he wants to come back through the back door and enslave the nation again.

“We won’t allow that to happen again.”

According to the cleric, the ruling party, PDP, is only a fraction of the country made up of about three million Nigerians who had managed to teleguide the lives of the rest of the nation, adding “the nation has grown wiser now and will no longer accept corrupt politicians in next year’s elections.

You wonder why Nigeria is what it is today, folks are saying pastors should sit down and watch the country languish in absolute poverty, guess Fela sat down and

sang about Roses, Wole Soyinka should always sit in a small cabin office and write about only the "Jewels of his dreams" Gani should have worried about Latin maxims only, please WAKE UP!!!!!!


Imagine if all the pastors and Imams would all stand up and cry against our thieving politicians, If all the singers would all be like Fela for just ONE DAY and see if Nigeria would not be stirred in the right direction,


THE COUNTRY IS IN DIRE NEED OF SOCIAL CRUSADERS!!!!!!!!!

The Bible teaches us forgiveness, oh ye pharisees. If the man has begged for forgiveness then as true Christians, forget the past and vote with your head.

Whilst there is evidence that the "demon from Minna" cannot be trusted, DO NOT VOTE WITH VENGEANCE IN YOUR HEART.

to me i think pastor tunde bakare should not criticize ibb because ibb is a muslim and pastor tunde comment maybe mistaken by muslims as religious criticism. its just like an imam criticising a christian political candidate. i hope this wont make people in north to start killing christians
