APC Primary: Watch Video Of How Supporters Welcomed Pastor Tunde Bakare Back At The Airport

The Serving Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare has received a warm welcome from his supporters who gathered at the airport to receive him following the experiences and activities of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential primaries in which he participated.

The video making its round on social media shows the supporters in a happy mood as they danced and sang to a song in Yoruba language which is roughly translated to mean “it is still possible because I believe.”

Naija News recalls Pastor Bakare who contested the APC 2023 presidential ticket when he was invited to the podium to speak at the national convention of the party on Tuesday night about his presidential ambition, said he is not stepping down for anybody.

He stated that he is only stepping up as the 16th president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Speaking further, Bakare hailed himself as the best candidate to lead Nigeria forward, stating that most of the presidential aspirants are not deserving of leadership.

However, when the final results were announced, Pastor Bakare got zero votes from the delegates.

This prompted some netizens to take to the social media to mock the clergyman who in response via a social media post on Wednesday said he was happy because he was different while saying those who were desirous of effecting a change must be different.

He stated that despite losing the primary election, he passed the test of integrity.

He wrote, “I am happy I passed the test of character by not paying any delegate.

“I passed the test of courage by speaking the truth in the midst of wolves and the test of conviction by standing true to my beliefs. Those who will make a difference must be different.”

Naija News understands the clergyman has now returned to base from Abuja and was welcomed with pomp and pageantry by supporters at the airport.
