2023: I’m Trusting God To Emerge APC Presidential Candidate — Bakare
Pastor Tunde Bakare, the Nigerian Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, has committed to follow the laws governing the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential convention, expressing faith in God to secure the party’s ticket.
Bakare made the remarks in Abuja on Wednesday, immediately after submitting his presidential declaration of interest and nomination forms.
The cleric stated that he had followed the rules of the game thus far, and that it is now up to the party to complete subsequent activities according to its schedules.
He said: “Anyone who participates in a race must run according to the rules.
“We have fulfilled our own side and it is now for the party to set the stage and to tell us what next. They will determine what next.
“What I know for now is that there will be screening and after screening for those who may have appeal, they will appeal.
“Thereafter, there will be primaries and by the grace of God, we have decided to run according to the rules and we expect to win by His special grace.
“My chances are as bright as that of any person. I am eminently qualified either by age or experience or everything that counts in this race.
“And I trust God that I will emerge the winner,” he added.
Bakare also expressed commitment to the realisation of a new Nigeria in his life time, promising to be the bridge between the past, present and the future.
