God just told me not to vote for "Tunde Bakare" come 2019...

Since they can't stop using God's name to lie, we will feed them with the same piece of cake they made for us to eat ...nonsense

God has been brought in again as countdown to the 2018 general elections begin in Nigeria. Fiery Lagos pastor, Tunde Bakare has said that he has received God's directive to contest for 2019 presidential election.

Tunde Bakare said God asked him to run for presidency. Meaning that Buhari isn't delivering else we would have been praying for more grace. But Buhari has taken the grace of God for granted. Mbaka has pitched tent with Dankwanbo. All these are making things easier for Atiku.
