President Muhammadu Buhari met with Pastor Tunde Bakare of The Citadel Global Community Church at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Friday.
Mr Femi Adesina, President Buhari’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, made the announcement in a Facebook post.
“President Buhari receives Pastor Tunde Bakare in State House on 15th Oct 2021,” Adesina captioned the photos. He was, however, unable to state the details of the meeting as at press time.
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that in response to the current situation of the nation, the famous clergyman asked for a change of guards, which he defined as new blood in the system.
Pastor Bakare stated that individuals close to the president are fed up with the situation, therefore the need for skilled hands.
He said, “Change of guards simply means that we need fresh hands and insights into how to fix the problems of Nigeria.
“Everyone looks tired around the President and we need a change of guards to bring competent people to handle critical issues.
“I’m not advocating coup d’etat, God forbid; that will set us back by many years again. Military coup landed us in the trouble we are.”
