Pastor Tunde Bakare Faces Pressure to Join ADC Amidst Rising Opposition Coalition

Pastor Tunde Bakare, founder of Citadel Global Community Church, revealed being pressured by influential figures to join the African Democratic Congress (ADC) amidst the rising opposition coalition. Bakare disclosed this during the Citadel School of Governance Dialogue Series in Lagos.

Despite appeals from top political actors, Bakare expressed his reluctance to join ADC, citing his support for a robust opposition. He emphasized his stance against participating in ADC due to potential conflicts within the political landscape.

The cleric also mentioned the need for a strong opposition to counter the ruling party. Bakare's firm decision not to align with ADC reflects his commitment to maintaining a critical voice in Nigerian politics.
