Pastor Tunde Bakare 

The founder of Citadel Global Community Church, Tunde Bakare, has revealed that many leaders of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, have been reaching out to him to join the coalition.

Speaking at the maiden edition of the Citadel School of Governance Dialogue Series tagged ‘Nigeria at 65: Historical Reflections, Futuristic Projection’ in Lagos, Mr Bakare ruled out the possibility of joining the party.

“There has been a lot of pressure on me from who is who to join ADC. They come to my home. Even while I was abroad, the hierarchy of that party kept calling, saying they needed my voice,” Mr Bakare said.

He added that one of his younger political associates, who benefited from holding key offices in the All Progressives Congress, urged him to lend his influence to the ADC.

“I am not going to take part in ADC. The last time I knew about ADC was about a plane that crashed. I wish them well, because we need a robust opposition.

“But you don’t birth a child called APC and then try to kill it yourself. We are not going to have another Awolowo–Akintola crisis in the South-West,” he stated.

Mr Bakare, a founding member of the All Progressive Congress, APC maintained that the emergence of President Bola Tinubu was backed by divine providence.

“If God wants to remove ‘emilokan,’ He knows how to do it. You can’t get the kind of thing Tinubu has brought without God’s support,” he added.
