I can’t understand what Buhari was doing at a wedding with 110 girls missing – Bakare

The Senior Overseer of Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has expressed disgust over the decision of President Muhammadu Buhari and 22 governors to attend an elaborate wedding Fatiha of Idris Abiola Ajimobi, the son of Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State, and Fatima Umar Ganduje, the daughter of Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano State, in Kano on Saturday when when 110 schoolgirls from Dapchi in Yobe State are missing.
The schoolgirls were abducted by Boko Haram insurgents from their school on February 19, 2018.
Bakare, who spoke on Sunday during a service in the church, said the Peoples Democratic Party for 16 years it spent in government borrowed N6 trillion, but the All Progressives Congress has borrowed N11 trillion in just three years in power.
He said: “Forgive my ill-mannerism, but I could not comprehend why a governor will celebrate the wedding of his daughter, and another governor of his son, on the front pages of newspapers, flashing it before our eyes, when other people’s daughters are in captivity.
“If any of them had lost a daughter in that captivity, would they celebrate that way?
“I know the Bible says rejoice with them that rejoice, but I do not know what the President of Nigeria was doing there.
“And somebody came to say, let me explain to you, it is Islamic tradition, before this time, about January, they had agreed that he (Buhari) will be the one to give the bride away and (Asiwaju Bola Ahmed) Tinubu will be the one to pay the dowry, and present the son, and they agreed long before now.
“I looked at him and said the President of Nigeria wanted to come to my daughter’s wedding, and I said to him, sir, don’t come.
“That is beneath your office.
“Face the work of the state and keep serving.
“And 22 governors showed up to mark register, when 110 daughters of citizens of your nation were captured by Boko Haram that you said you have already technically defeated?
“It just shows how insensitive our leaders are.
“We have gotten to a stage that our president has become a king and a monarch.
“That his son who rode his pleasurable bike that almost claimed his life will be returning from an overseas trip where he had received special healthcare that Nigerians cannot afford, that it took a whole Minister of State to go and welcome him because he has no job.
“If you truly know the truth, you will weep, if you know how much we are owing as a nation, you will weep.
“For 16 years of PDP they borrowed N6 trillion.
“For three years of APC, they borrowed N11 trillion.
“And they are not going to pay the debt.
“You and I, and our children and our children’s children will pay the debt, unless they write them off again.”
