The founder of Citadel Global Church, Tunde Bakare, has declared he will be elected President of Nigeria the manner Joe Biden was elected President of America.
Bakare who spoke to the press yesterday in Lagos, said: “There is something called destiny. I am not one to hide under the umbrella of one finger and make ambition look like vision, I do not camouflage.
“It is not a matter of life and death, but you can write it down. As the Lord lives, and as I am given the opportunity, the day will come, like Joe Biden, that I will be the President of Nigeria.”
Bakare who has not hidden his readiness to take over from President Muhammadu Buhari as Predident recently appeared as a guest on Arise Television show where he insisted that as a citizen of Nigeria he has the right to run for any elective office.
“It is my fundamental right to run if I chose to. I mean every word I spoke. I cannot fold my hand or say well, let me continue to watch. No,” he said.
“I am a citizen of this country, born and bred here by the grace of God and I intend to contribute my quota. It is like a matter of life and death.”
“I am not taking those words back. I have something to offer my country.”
“But it is all left for my country to say we want you because I cannot impose myself on them. I challenge right-thinking patriots to rise and let us join hands to fix our country. If God designs it that I will be the 16th president in 2023, I’m ready. I’m prepared.
