Bakare: Backing Buhari Doesn’t Make Me A Worthless Prophet
The senior pastor of Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has dismissed insinuations of being a fake prophet on account of his past endorsements of President Muhammadu Buhari, saying that the president is like rebellious King Saul who deviated from God’s plan.
Speaking during an online event organized by PTB4Nigeria in Canada, Bakare said all his proclamations about Buhari in the past were as ordained of God.
“The problems he inherited and the ones created by him will not make me say let’s throw the bathwater and the baby out.
“Are there some things that have been accomplished? You just have to come down and see things for yourself compared to where we were and where we are right now.”
Affirming that his past endorsements of Buhari did not make him a worthless prophet, Bakare said:
“But anybody that wants to blame me for 2011, 2015, and 2019 should also blame Samuel for anointing Saul,” he said.
“It was God who spoke to Samuel, brought Saul to Samuel and asked him to anoint him as captain over his people.
“That Saul rebelled against God; that Saul did not perform according to the plan and purpose of God does not make Samuel a worthless prophet. To those who want to take me to the cleaners, congratulations. I have done something. May God grant you grace to do your own.”
GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that the decision of Bakare to back Buhari in the 2011, 2015 and 2019 had made some question if he were really a prophet, a question that has gained more currency on account of the president’s performance in office.
