AWW!! Pastor Tunde Bakare Recounts Beautiful Moments With General Buhari

This interview is interesting and will make you laugh..Pastor Tunde Bakare in an interview has recalled some of his best moments with APC’s presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari while they worked together in 2011 during his presidential campaign. Here’s what the pastor said about General Buhari.
“People say Buhari is an extremist but he is a great personality. I have had the privilege of working with him at a very close range especially during and after the 2011 presidential election. A lot of propaganda out there surrounding this great man, some would see him as an extremist, fundamentalist and who hates religion aside from his, as someone so hard that he can’t laugh or crack a joke, but I find none of these to be true.
“These people fabricated all these lies against him because they know that if he wins the election, they would have to flee this country…he is not a fundamentalist. I remember when his driver asked me to pray for him on our way to Kaduna in 2011, I told him straight away that I couldn’t pray in Islam because I was no longer a Muslim and that I could only use the name of Jesus. The Driver said, I am a Christian, and I realized that he is not the only worker that is a Christian, his guards were Christians, he has Christian workers around yet people say he is an Islamic fundamentalist. I also remember when we got back from a campaign and he was tired and while going to him, he staggered and said, Jesus Christ of Nazareth and I went ‘What”…I said General, I thought it was a swear word and he laughed and said ‘Pastor you don’t have the monopoly of Jesus Christ, you don’t want to hang around General for too long, his sense of humour is out of this world, yet they say he doesn’t laugh….one day, while I visited him, he said, Pastor do you know we have three things in common and said oh really and he said “you are the last child of your father so I am, of all your father’s children there are only two left and so is mine, and but I beat in the third one, your father had 22 children while mine had 23. And we laughed and I told him, I beat you also, I was born a Muslim but I am now a Christian while you are still a Muslim and he laughed so heartily.”

  1. Good thing he's not so bitter about Buhari not choosing him as his running mate. Good thing he is supporting an old comrade. Hmmm! "Uwaifo don talk e own o".

  6. The day we put aside politics of columny, trying to assassinate people's image without knowing their real personality, and rather be issue base. That is when real development will start in the country.
    It a good thing Pastor Tunde Bakare has discovered that all these are just lies.
