"I Trust Buhari But Doubt His Environment" – Pastor Bakare

While addressing Christians at the annual Lenten lecture of the Island Club in Lagos. The General Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, on Tuesday said that he trusted the presidential candidate of the APC , Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari but not the credibility of his environment.

“Yes I trust Buhari and this is because I have worked closely with him but I doubt his environment. The Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress, which one is really clean? Only God can give us true leaders, I believe in contact without contamination” Bakare said.

Bakare, who was the running mate of Buhari on the platform of the Congress for Progressive Change in the 2011 presidential election, said he was not a politician but a nation-builder.

“If General Buhari wins, let President Goodluck Jonathan accept defeat. Whoever loses is not a loser and if the winner is President Goodluck Jonathan, Buhari should accept this as the will of God.
“The 2015 election is a serious crossroad and we might be playing with fire but with wisdom and prayer, we shall end well.
“ I am not a politician; I am not a PDP nor APC member. I am a nation-builder. Whoever I support is not the issue, God’s will must prevail. My loyalty is first to God and to my country but God knows Nigeria’s next president.”
