Tunde Bakare, pastor of the Latter Rain Assembly, says Nigerians can shut down the government as a result of herdsmen killings in recent times.
Bakare spoke on the sidelines of “the real cost of subsidy”, an event organised by Enough is Enough, a coalition of youth advocacy groups.
He said the order by the inspector general of police for vigilante groups and weapon-bearing individuals to surrender “illegal firearm” should apply to all including the herdsmen.
“This is why I said this government is compromised completely,” he said.
“If you are making such a rule, let it be a statute of general application, let it apply to all. Nigerians to wake up, shine their eyes and put their own destinies into their hands. They should fight for themselves. There are several ways to do it. Civil unrest is one of them, protest is another. We (Nigerians) can shut this government down. We have the numbers and we will show them that we have done it before and we will do it again.”
Bakare also accused the Buhari administration of mismanaging fuel subsidy, saying it refused to deregulate the downstream sector of the oil industry at the expense of Nigerians.
“Show me in the world, any civilised society or any nation that is developed where government does business,” he said.
“Government job is to create enabling environment for business to thrive and flourish. Government job is to set policy. In Nigeria, the sleaze they get from it (subsidy) is why they are not letting go. There is only one word for either this government or any government, Buhari inclusive: let him that stole steal no more.”

Bakare doesn’t know what he is saying. There can never be civil unrest and protest in this country especially under Buhari when the north is singing praises to their sharia and herdman grand patron. His northern kinsmen will rise and start killing us the minority Christians in the core north. And this can lead to a civil war. This is because we christians in the north have had it to our neck and are no longer willing to be the sacrificial lambs for the so-called unity of the country.
Enough is enough! A decision has to be made!
