EKO HOT BLOG reports that while addressing pressing national concerns during the Easter celebrations, Bakare expressed dismay over the current political and economic direction of the country, warning that Nigeria was on the brink of deeper hardship if urgent steps were not taken.

Reacting through a post on his official 𝕏 account, Bwala described Bakare’s critique as “objective,” stating that the clergyman did not only criticise but also acknowledged achievements and proposed constructive suggestions.

“Pastor Tunde Bakare’s sermon and speech delivered this morning in form of a message to President Bola Tinubu is quite objective,” Bwala stated.

“He gave his general opinion on events and decisions of government; he critiqued certain policies and applauded some; he further offered his suggestions on the way forward.”

The presidential media aide commended Bakare’s balanced approach and highlighted that the administration respects the rights of Nigerians to voice their concerns.

“Importantly, he acknowledged the successes and strides of the President and his administration,” Bwala noted.

He added that while the Presidency holds different views on some of the issues raised, Tinubu remains unwavering in his resolve to fulfil his mandate.
