Pastor Tunde Bakare Bombs President Buhari Again, Says He Has Failed Nigerians


Pastor Tunde Bakare of the Latter Rain Assembly has lampooned President Muhammadu Buhari for his failure in turning around the country for good.

The leader of the Latter Rain Assembly last night, spoke fiercely against the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government, asserting that he has failed.

In an interview on AIT and monitored by DAILY POST, Bakare said expectations of Nigerians had not been met by the Federal Government and that he was particularly disappointed about the handling of killings by herdsmen, particularly that of Benue State.

On whether the rampaging herdsmen were foreigners, Bakare said he does not know but that “they are human beings.”

Asked if he agreed with former President Olusegun Obasanjo that Buhari should not seek re-election in 2019, Bakare said it was the president’s constitutional right to seek elective office.

“I’ve not joined any Third Force. I’ve not been part of any force. At the right time, we will know what to do because what I see now is what I can envision in the days to come, it’s that this chicken that you see, they are about to eat, they are on intestine…

“Most of these people don’t really care about the development of the government of our nation…They seek power for self, not for service.

“This is why it hurts me deep, that such crisis will hit Benue state and the leadership of the nation will not move there, go there. Rather, they invited them to come to Abuja.

“The most painful to me was that an American leader would not do that; the British leader would not do that; who are the ones we are emulating. You are not a king, you are a servant of the people and you are to know that you really are serving the interest of your people.

“The Inspector General of Police showed up and he said it’s communal clash…he even said that before he got there! In a decent nation, he would have been fired by now,” he said.

On Buhari’s rumoured bid in 2019, Bakare replied: “It’s his fundamental constitutional right to run or not to run but whether it would now be accepted in the way it was accepted before…He came as military Head of State, he has come as civilian president, Jesus himself is only coming twice…”

Gambling involves staking a certain amount of money or possession in the hope of winning something bigger or in multiples. Gambling entails having an optimistic belief that giving out something will bring back a higher return. Gambling means a positive or negative expectation from an input done by the gambler. A gambler gambles away some or all of his money in expectation of winning what will change his or her life financially at most times.

7 Greatest Sportsmen Of All Time

There are often arguments and counterarguments on who the 7 greatest sportsmen of all time are. Some sports historians, analysts, and supporters pick their own choices not necessarily on facts but emotions.  In picking the 7 greatest sportsmen of all time, I briefly checked their achievements not just in their specific fields but also their impact outside the world of sports. 1. Boxing legend, Muhammad Ali has been crowned the best sports athlete of all time in a star-studded list. The 'Greatest' is widely considered the best boxer in history and arguably the most iconic sports star of the 20th century.  Ali was not just a beauty to watch in the boxing ring, the greatest pugilist positively influenced decisions in many countries globally.  2. Pele is widely picked as the winner, and number one football player in history in all criteria. His three-time World Cup-winning feat, from four World Cup appearances, is unlikely to be matched.
