Again: Pastor Bakare declares a dictator is coming to Naija

The Serving Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, today predicted that a dictator is coming to fix Nigeria.

The running mate to Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, in this year’s election, said during his sermon at his Lagos-based church today that the dictator that is coming would be very ruthless.

 

He said the cleansing that the former Ghanaian President, Jerry Rawlings, carried out in his country would be a child’s play compared to what the coming Nigerian dictator would do. Pastor Bakare said the coming dictator may not necessarily be a military man, adding that Nigerians should be prepared to face the consequences of failing to choose the right leaders.

 
According to him, when one refuses to learn from past blunders one’s future destiny is destroyed.  He said what is about to happen in the country cannot be prayed or wished away because prayers cannot change prophecy. Bakare, who was preaching on the topic: ‘The Prophet As A Sign To The Nation’, said MKO Abiola, Kudirat Abiola, Gani Fawehinmi, Beko Ransome-Kuti and others who died in the course of the struggle to entrench democracy in the country did not die in vain.

 
He said just as his house got burnt and is now being rebuilt, that is how the coming dictator would cleanse the country to pave the way for a new Nigeria.  He assured that his prophecy would be fulfilled soon.  Last Sunday, he also spoke about the coming dictator, quoting Prof. Alexander Tyler who said “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves a largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority will always vote for the candidate promising the most from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policies and is always followed by a dictatorship.”

He said this happened in 1983 when former president, Alhaji Shehu Shagari’s government was toppled by the military and the reign of dictators followed.  The fiery preacher expressed worry over the state of the economy and lambasted those belly-aching over the introduction of Islamic banking.  He said those doing so are just chasing shadows whereas what is urgently needed is to save the economy that is now in dire strait.

He those who are not comfortable with Islamic banking should go and start their own Christian banking, adding that investors are only interested in banks that will offer them low interest rate, not minding the names such banks are called.
