Fiery preacher and pastor of the Latter Rain Assembly, Tunde Bakare, has said former governor of Lagos State, Bola Tinubu, does not belong in the same class with the former premier of Western Region, Obafemi Awolowo, and does not deserve to take the place of the late sage as the leader of the Yoruba race. He said although both leaders made unique contributions in bringing the race together, Mr. Awolowo belonged to a special breed created by God and was only in the class of world leaders like Mahatma Gandhi of India. Mr. Bakare stated this in an interview published in the second edition of The Interview magazine, a new monthly publication led by a former Group Managing Director of Leadership Newspaper, Azubike Ishiekwene. Mr. Tinubu, a national leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, holds the title of Asiwaju, one of the numerous titles also held by the late premier of Western region, who passed away in 1987. Asiwaju in the Yoruba language means “the frontline leader.” Mr. Awolowo founded the Egbe Omo Oduduwa in the 40’s to promote the culture and unity of the Yoruba. In 1951, he founded the Action Group, a political party that ran for elections in the First Republic. He later founded the Unity Party of Nigeria, which swept the governorship polls in all the states in the old Western State as well as the old Bendel State in the Second Republic. Apart from ruling Lagos State for eight years, Mr. Tinubu, a Third Republic senator, was believed to be the brain behind the merger of some opposition party into the APC in 2013. The parties were the Congress for Progressive Change, All Nigeria Peoples Party, Action Congress of Nigeria and a section of the All Progressives Grand Alliance. The party currently controls the federal government and 22 states, including five of the six states in Yoruba land. But Mr. Bakare said Mr. Tinubu was yet to cross the kind of rivers rivers Mr. Awolowo crossed. “What major river did he (Tinubu) cross?” Mr. Bakare fired back when asked by his interviewer if the former governor was not qualified to take the place of the sage who is widely described as the last authentic leader of the Yoruba. Reminded that Mr. Tinubu was the major engineer of the merger that helped to bring the Yoruba together, the clergyman said, “And you think it was only Bola Tinubu who made that possible. I see. Which one came first, the chicken or the egg?” He stated further, “Well, the answer is in the Bible. You are a preacher yourself. God first created the bird of the air and not eggs. The birds laid the eggs. If you see the picture of patriots and Nigerian leaders here, they are all a collapse of his. “The people who are attempting to wear his (Awolowo) glasses do not have his vision, they attempt to wear his cap but do not have his brain, they attempt to wear his shoes but do not walk his ways. Show me the empire that Awolowo built with public funds. To a Yoruba man, there is no concept greater than Omoluabi. “If you get to my father’s grave in a hut he built in 1922, which is now a museum, there is an inscription ‘bibire koshefowora” which means you cannot buy a good pedigree or familial background. “I am not trying to take the shine off Tinubu’s efforts; he had laboured but he is not in the same class with Awolowo. Regardless of how many rivers he crosses, he is still Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Awolowo is Awolowo. “I have seen some paintings and pictures out there of Mahatma Gandhi, Awolowo and others and I just laugh and wonder why people can’t be themselves. When God needed a Mahatma Gandhi, he created one. So he did when he wanted an Awolowo. He created a T.D Jakes when he needed one. “A young man once went to T.D. Jakes and said, ‘Pray for me that God will bless me and make me like you.’ T.D.Jakes asked him, “Are you sure.” “He said ‘Yes’ and T.D. Jakes said, “Let us pray. May you be homeless, go through hardship,’ and the young man jumped up and said ‘no, no, no, no, “and T.D. Jakes said, “That is what produces results.” Mr. Bakare, who was the vice presidential candidate of the CPC in the 2011 election, said books Mr. Awolowo authored were still relevant today. “You need to see books he (Awolowo) wrote and how they are still relevant today,” he said. “Years after he left the scene, he is still the numero uno Yoruba leader. Eagles don’t flock. You see one at a time.” http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/189926-tinubu-can-never-be-as-great-as-awolowo-tunde-bakare.html |

**BreakingNews****** A Boko haram member was sent to destroy Aba city by bombing. The guy dropped at MCC junction, worked down mcc road, he got confused and returned back to the junction. He then entered a keke that passed ABIAPOLY and noticed as the road was patched with 'cement', he got confused again and dropped at BATA. He entered a Keke that took him to Ogbor hill where he dropped at Ukaegbu junction towards GALLARY HOTEL, he worked down the road and got confused again, He once again took another Keke to Port Harcourt road, along the road, he became as confused as never before. He picked up his phone and called Abubakar Shakau who was shocked that the suicide bomber was still alive and demanded to know why he has not bombed a place. The Boko haram man that was sent to bomb Aba said to his oga. "Oga from the way I de see this city, e be like say we don bomb this place before'. |
