FORMER CPC vice presidential candidate and founder of Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare has declared that he earnestly yearns for a better Nigeria where good governace, equal distribution of the nation’s resources amongst others for all citizens.

The former running mate of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) made this remarks while ministering during the inauguration and commissioning of Grace and Glory Chapel in Ikeja, Lagos, while giving reasons why he rejected a car gift for his 60th birthday.
Pastor Bakare said he was not interested in becoming a local champion in a city of the blind, recalling that, some persons brought him a 2015 model of Rolls Royce during his 60th birthday which, he said, he out rightly rejected, adding that he was not in need of such exotic car while majority of Nigerians are wallowing in poverty.

“I want to see good governance. I want to see discipline. I want to see equitable distribution of resources. I want to see the poor being educated. I want to see a nation that works,” Bakare said.
Continuing, he said: “I don’t want to be a local champion in a city of the blind. I am not in need of a 2015 model of Rolls-Royce which was presented to me as a gift.

“I was sitting at home one day and they brought in a brand new 2015 Rolls-Royce into my house. My 60th birthday was coming. I looked at it, kai! This is awkward. When you open your car, your door goes this way, its own door goes that way. It clears the way so that there is nothing blocking your way.

“I saw a button. They said: it is an umbrella sir. It is on every door in case it is raining, you just push it and the umbrella comes out. I said: Na wa o. Then I said: Oya, leave this place.

“Where is the road that I will ride it upon? My heart is not in things like this. I asked my son to take a photograph of the brand new car as a proof,” the controversial pastor noted.

Bakare also averred that poverty has made most Nigerians to believe that anybody without a jet has not arrived, adding that majority of those who bought jets can no longer maintain such jets and are busy leasing them out.

This is sheer sycophancy. I watched a sermon by him some years ago where he spoke against celebration of birthdays. He specifically inferred that the birthdays celebrated in the biblical days ended in disasters using that of Herod's daughter who requested for the head of John the Baptist as an instance. How come he violated his preaching by holding elaborate birthday party in 2015? I am not criticising him but men of God must live above board and eschew partisanship.

Good pastor.


He is trying so hard to Convince us that he is still upright. if not, he would have reject the gift and kept it to himself without us letting us know that he rejects such a gift.

Had it been that it is the person that gave him the give is the one praising him for rejecting the gift, i would have clap harder but he is the one praising himself.

If he have the opportunity to become a president or vice, he will buy cars and more material things of life that are much more expensive things of life, then the well being of the poor will become secondary.

Lol. You obviously don't know him. If you think you can win him over with gifts or even harmless flattery, my man, he will fall your hand promptly.

Politicians have learnt to steer clear of him when it comes to bribes and "incentives".

Lol. Written by someone who has lost faith in the integrity of Nigerians.

This is the same man who rejected the obscenely excessive allowance given to all who attended the National Conference.

If you want to point out the wrong doings of a government/system, it's better to keep away from all their incentives and gifts so they won't beset you.

There are still many others like him who wouldn't partake in the "king's" delicacies.

You rejected the car because you want good governance.? How does rejecting the car make Nigeria better.? How does it help the poor, it would have made sense if you accept the gift,sell it and donate the money to an orphanage.

You rejected the gift but couldn't reject the position as Mr B running mate last election..

Wisdom cometh by hearing. If he keeps quiet, no one will learn from it. Secondly, I can hear guys saying why not collect then sell and give to the poor. When a man of principle does that he saliently encourages the givers of such Greek gifts. There are several ways to rid this nation of ills. Pastor Bakare is one man of God I still have utmost respect for. Fighting for the people from a position of comfort is not a virtue of the elites which he belongs to. Men of principles are very few in Nigeria of today. His refusal to hobnob with the Tinubus even with his distaste with the current government shows he is a man of character and must be commended.
