Pastor Tunde Bakare Recounts Beautiful Moments With Buhari

This will make you laugh so hard and get to know more about
these men. 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.”
