Bakare rates FG, says ‘We’re in a very perplexing situation as a nation’

The Serving Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Tunde Bakare, says Nigeria is in a very perplexing situation under the administration of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd).

Speaking during an interview on Channels Television, on Tuesday, the ex-vice-presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change said that the country was at the precipice and that many things currently happening had not been seen before, adding that Nigeria has a way of bouncing back.

Speaking on Tuesday, Bakare said, “This is not the Nigeria we envisioned — not only as young people but in recent past.

“It is as if we are, again, at the precipice; but Nigeria has a way of bouncing back.

“We are full of hope that God Almighty will help us. We are in a very perplexing situation as a nation.

“Many things that we didn’t see before are happening now. Even the President himself said so that nothing worries or bothers him like what is happening in the north-east, especially the banditry and kidnapping.”

When asked if he was surprised at the turn of events, he said, “Surprise will be a good thing for me. I’m not surprised. I’m terribly shocked about the things that are happening. I never envisaged them.”
