Pastor Tunde Bakare of The Citadel Global Community Church
has fired at his antagonists who said he collected money from Asiwaju Bola
Tinubu to support him for 2023.
He said such people should come up with facts to expose him.
Bakare had last week endorsed Tinubu for 2023 and said some
rancorous Yoruba elders were jealous of the former Governor and APC National
leader and ganging up to pull him down.
Many criticized Bakare for his comments, with some saying he
had been bribed by Tinubu to eulogize him.
The controversial preacher reacted during a sermon on
Sunday, saying that one would have thought that the whole message of over an
hour would be listened to so that the context of the clip that went viral would
be listened to before judgment was passed by those who considered him to have
taken a 360-turnaround compared to the thoughts he had taken previously about
the man many love to hate and many hate to love.
Bakare said instead, the bath water and the baby were both
thrown out by some self-appointed undertakers who thought the way forward in
the nation’s dilemma was to uproot the tares and separate them from the wheat
long before the harvest time ordained by God.
According to him, the same undertakers willfully forgot that
the current mixture of the bad, the good, and the ugly in the polity were a
result of the negligence of past and present leaders, who slept on duty and
allowed the enemy to sow the tares while the good man had planted good seeds on
the ground.
He stated that as a matter of fact, this past week, this set
of individuals went to the extreme of calling him delusional, while others
concluded that money must have changed hands for him to say the things that
were said contrary to his previous stand concerning the same person.
Bakare said categorically that he is never for sale because
he had been bought by the Blood of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary and
that no other price could match that.
The fiery preacher added that if anyone knew who gave him
money, such should be exposed with all alacrity.
He defended himself before his congregation that he never
took money and that what people were saying were the figment of the imagination
of their hearts.
