The Presidency has replied to the Founder of the Citadel Global Community Church, Lagos, Pastor Tunde Bakare, over the criticism of the administration of President Bola Tinubu in his State of the Nation Address on Sunday.
The reaction of the Presidency was contained in a post on X by the Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala.
In the statement on Sunday, shortly after the over one hour address by Bakare, Bwala wrote: “Pastor Tunde Bakare’s sermon and speech delivered this morning in the form of a message to @officialABAT is quite objective.
“He gave his general opinion on events and decisions of government; he critiqued certain polities and applauded some; he further offered his suggestions on the way forward.
“Importantly, he acknowledged the successes and strides of the President and his administration.
