Nigerian Pastor Tunde Bakare Rejects 2015 Roll Royce Car 60th Birthday Gift
Feb 1st, 2015 – Nigerian Pastor Tunde Bakare: Why I Rejected 2015 Roll Royce Car As 60th Birthday Gift
Pastor Tunde Bakare, the founder of the later rain assembly church was given a whopping N20,000,000 cash gift during his 60th birthday ceremony last year however, the man of God rejected another gift given to him by another church member.
The MOG said he rejected the brand new 2015 Roll Royce Phatom luxury car because it doesn’t fit his lifestyle.
He made this known recently during the commissioning of Grace and Glory chapel in Ikeja Lagos,
Hear him: “I want to see good governance. I want to see discipline. I want to see equitable distribution of resources. I want to see the poor being educated. I want to see a nation that works. I don’t want to be a local champion in a city of the blind. I am not in need of a 2015 model of Rolls-Royce which was presented to me as a gift.”
“I was sitting at home one day and they brought in a brand new 2015 Rolls-Royce into my house. My 60th birthday was coming. I looked at it, kai! This is awkward. When you open your car, your door goes this way, its own door goes that way. It clears the way so that there is nothing blocking your way.
I saw a button. They said: it is an umbrella sir. It is on every door in case it is raining, you just push it and the umbrella comes out. I said: Na wa o. Then I said: Oya, leave this place. Where is the road that I will ride it upon? My heart is not in things like this. I asked my son to take a photograph of the brand new car as a proof”.

The person should have given him the equivalent cash to balance things out

Kunle Ilahor, u may go 2d nearest bar & take d choicest wine dat lights up ur fancy, I’ll pay.
MOG, shal we quickly reckon dis act as being spirit-led wdout kful considerations? U didnt turn down a similar mind-blowing gft last year. So Y do it nw? Did ur lifestyle abruptly take a sharp turn dat ur fans & congregants did nt notice?
Let’s say it did, den u shd hav earlier made it known 2 ur church members whom u well knew dat they were rather consumed in a fierce competition 2 out-give one anoda, not 2 God, bt 2 u. U shd hav told dem not 2 bother givin u anythn dis time around.
Bt u were silent. & jst nw dat dis has hapnd, u’v gon ahead 2 publish it @d city gates 4 evrbdy 2 knw.
I dnt knw ur intent & purpose; I dnt knw weda or not it likens 2d pharisees who made d public 2 knw evry spiritual activity dat they unda2k. But one thing I tel u is dat u hav hurt dat man who bought dat Rolls Royce. He is nw like Cain, whereas d oda persn u accepted his N20M is Abel.
U’d beta watchd out, Pastor!

Offer the same gift to a man from the Eastern corridor of Nigeria and the following day he’ll surface in his village to tell a story of a new success from some business no-one hardly knows the sourse of the money. Tunde Bakare’s rejection of a Roll Roice is signifant in the sense that it lays less emphasis on worshipping of material thing as seen done by certain people of the East. God bless Tunde Bakare. Nigeria still has men of integrity afterall.

The Word of GOD say’s” praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit, and watching thus with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.”
the real mystery of the gospel is missing in some now aday minister’s of devil that we called minister’s of GOD. *08038433483#

@ Mutu Nyetu,the =N=20M was donated by the church members. It was given to him to renovate his alma mater( i.e the primary school) he attended. The primary school would have been renovated and presented to him as his 60th birthday gift but couldn’t due to time constrained, that was why the church decided to give him the cheque instead.more so, The donation was on voluntary contribution and not imposed,he wasn’t even aware of it coming, if not, he would have stopped the donation. Lets emulate a man of integrity.

I really do not see anything wrong in him revealing that coz that can also be a lesson for other pastors that collect such gift from their church members even if he collect one last year he might have think about it that he is not going to collect such gift again. Come to think about what if he has collected?nothing would have happened and nobody would have done anything to him. So there is nothing wrong for him to say he rejected the gift

Pastor Tunde Bakare is a man of integrity and discipline. The 20m he got from some church members is for renovation of his past elementary school, Get him right, I like T Bakare.
