I rejected Tinubu’s ministerial offer because I’m too old – Pastor Tunde Bakare
The leader of Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has revealed why he refused President Bola Tinubu’s offer to become a cabinet minister.
Pastor Bakare said he turned down Tinubu’s ministerial offer because he was too old.
Speaking at Envoy Nation in Leicester on Sunday, Bakare said he promised Tinubu he would support his government privately.
He said: “I told Tinubu I’m too old to be a minister, but I will help in the background in any way I think will help my country. I have never been part of the opposition. I am a propositional platform, if I see something wrong, I will suggest a solution.
“I can’t change sides quickly by joining one party today and another tomorrow. I am a full member of APC, and I will vote when the time comes.”
