He is not speaking as a pastor. He is speaking as a bitter rival who is covetous of President Tinubu’s position- Reno Omokri slams Tunde Bakare

Reno Omokri has criticized Pastor Tunde Bakare following the clergyman’s recent remarks condemning President Bola Tinubu’s leadership style.

During a sermon on Sunday, April 20, Bakare took a swipe at Tinubu, accusing him of running the country with what he called a “motorpark brand of politics.” He also alleged that the President had reduced the National Assembly to a rubber stamp institution that merely serves his interests.

In response, Omokri took to Instagram, suggesting that Bakare’s comments stem from lingering resentment over his loss to Tinubu in the 2022 APC presidential primaries.

‘’Tunde Bakare wanted to be President. He contested against President Bola Tinubu for the APC primary on Wednesday, June 8, 2022, and was soundly defeated. Tunde Bakare scored ZERO votes at the primary. Please fact-check me. He is not speaking as a pastor or prophet. He is speaking as a defeated and bitter rival who is covetous of the President’s position.

You cannot expect a rival you defeated to be fair, just and balanced concerning you. It is not possible.

It is like expecting Kanye West to speak positively about Taylor Swift after losing the Grammy Award for Album of the Year to her.

This is a man who informed us that heaven has ordained him to be the sixteenth President of Nigeria after Buhari. Today, the reality is that the sixteenth President of Nigeria is President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Do you then expect him to be happy with Bola Tinubu for occupying a position promised to him by heaven?

If Tunde Bakare can lie against heaven (not the first time. He also claimed in 2006 that the Holy Spirit told him Buhari was part of Nigeria’s decaying past, before running with the same Buhari in 2011), who are you that he cannot lie to?”
