The General Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly and former Vice Presidential candidate under the Congress for Progressive Change, Pastor Tunde Bakare has distanced himself from quotes stating that APC is the Church of Satan.
The Quote was: "APC is like a newly opened church of Satan with the evil as a Pastor which could not be distinguished by Nigerians from a true living Godly Church and hence could be mistaken for a real Church, even when it was made of thieves (Legitimate Pen Robbers), that is why they ganged up against Local Government fiscal Autonomy using crumbs from stolen accumulated wealth to bribe their thievery colleagues at Federal and State house of Assembly."
"It is very clear that 5 Governors of APC in the west is far richer than their state and they have looted every penny from their state purse. People should be careful of this Rogues,".
However Mallam Nasir El-Rufai Posted on his Facebook page this statement followed by a message from Pastor Bakare himself.
The Jonathanian Disinformation Machine At Work Again - against Pastor Bakare and the APC - there has been a quotation attributed FALSELY to my brother Pastor Tunde Bakare, referring to his party the APC in unsavoury terms. IT IS FALSE and the email exchange below circulated with Pastor Bakare's express authority confirm the attribution to be false. This has been done to me and I had warmed then that the Jonathan Disinformation Team with offices at Legacy House, Abuja will do more of this. Watch out!
Pastor Bakare's Response: Thanks Mallam for your response even before asking or sharing these satanic verses with me.I never said so anywhere.The verses are the by product of the wicked imaginations of the author(s).Blessings
Tunde Bakare.
