Integrity Is Not Enough To Run A Government – Bakare tells Buhari

2 Min Read

General Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare has warned President Elect, Gen. Mohammadu Buhari to beware of vultures because integrity is not enough to run a government.

Bakare, who was also the running mate to Buhari in the 2011 Presidential election on the platform of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change made this statement at his church 26th anniversary where he delivered a message titled, ‘Democracy audit: chances, choices and consequences.’

He said “I congratulate Nigerians; we have chosen a man of integrity as our President. But integrity is not enough to run a government.

“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.

“The vultures are now going round and round. If he does not have quality people around him, then they will put round pegs in square holes and within two years, we are back to square one.”
