EKO HOT BLOG reports that Pastor Tunde Bakare has not ditched his dream and prophecy to become Nigeria’s next president despite not getting any votes at his party’s primary election.
During the just concluded convention of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) held at the Eagle Square in Abuja, last week, the National leader of the party, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who polled 1,271 votes emerged as the APC’s presidential candidate for the 2023 general election.
While the former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo came second and third with 316 and 235 votes respectively, Pastor Bakare, former Imo governor, Rochas Okorocha; former information minister, Ikeobasi Mokelu; and the industrialist, Tein Jack-Rich, secured zero votes.
Explaining the reasons for his zero votes, the Lagos-based pastor during his Church’s Sunday service at the Citadel Global Community on Sunday, said he lost at the primaries because he refused to compromise his values.
“Our heads remain unbowed because we did not compromise on the values that are integral to building a New Nigeria. For us, the means has always been as important as the end.
“This is why we confidently wear our ‘zero votes’ as a badge of zero tolerance for a certain kind of politics,” he said.

However, after congratulating Tinubu on his victory, Bakare again proclaimed “I’m the next president come May 29, 2023.”
The pastor had in the past prophesied that he was born to become President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor.
