The General Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, on Sunday dissected the dilemma facing Nigeria's new president-elect, General Buhari.
While speaking during the 26 Anniversary of his church, Latter Rain Assembly, he expressed his concerns about some of the key people around the General.
After congratulating the president, the president-elect and Nigerians on the presidential elections, he then sounded the warning about some of the General's men.
Statement excerpts
“May the good Lord surround the President-elect with men and women of goodwill, great intellectual capacity, competence and character to help restore our wasted years.
“I pray sincerely that not all those who facilitated his winning the election will be among those who run the government. I did say before the election that I trust the person of General Buhari but not all those around him.
“I mean every word of it because many of them are nothing but Ali Baba and 40 thieves. And if these are the same who would go into government, you can’t fight evil with evil. You can as well kiss the anti-corruption stance of Mr. President-elect goodbye.”
