Nigeria! "It Takes Idiots To Be Ruled By Fools" Tunde Bakare.

[udakoi]

This guy na deceiver!!!, you and me know politics as a dirty game, so for his mind to be made up, means he's wuru wuru pastor. Don't believe him b cos he preaches. Remember, "For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,' and will deceive many"

[solaoge]

There is nothing wrong in politics and pastoring,instead to be sit down look or sitting down and criticising he stood up for d fight,so if u can join him go to hell idiot.

[foo22100]

You O.A.I.C church organization is not better than Boko Haram. You named Yoruba religion as evil to establish your foolish churches. Only the Anglicans, Catholics, and true Yoruba Muslims are faithful to the gods of their ancestors. The foundation of your church is Boko Oduduwa, Boko Yorubas; meaning that Yoruba religion is a sin. You too must be wiped out in Nigeria. Yoruba religion is not a sin.

[toxukwuantoni]

He is not better than nobody, he will do worst than military, when time comes.

[tundeogunkoya]

@bobbyrocky if you call that evil, i guess you should put your own holy abi na good speech up na.

[unclev66]

After all the Big talk Bakare don talk!!....How many times has he gone out to protest with ppl in his life?...the so called "ppl he loves".....Like Fela said "Non of these so called leaders go out to march with the People..None! except My mother and Kwame Nkurumah, They ride in cars"... they ride in cars live and mansions and make Big speeches!.......Where were u and Buhari when ppl got killed after the elections which u lost......didnt even condemn the violence once!

[afromann007]

@unclev66 who brought SNG to live? Who protested in the streests of Lagos and Abuja during UMYA illness that made him handover to GEJ. Get your facts right. He is a Hero anyday anytime.

[bobbyrocky]

His words are not of God, vibrant evil speech..... It reminds me of those old Adolf Hitler’s audiotapes…..

Fighting evil with an evil speech is evil, by our fruits we shall be known; we seriously don't need to be fed with such evil speech. They should play that irritating tape for all his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren to hear not to us.

[phoenixchi28]

great video, nigerians do not and can not rise up because 99.9% of them are selfish, cowardly and ignorant, no guts to do anything other than talk and then run away to other countries to work aas slaves in other nations, its going to take a lot more than rousing speeches from the likes of this pastor to get them to do anything to change their own destiny. 

[chioham]

Pastor Tunde

With due respect you have missed a critical point. "You ask when have Nigerians become sucide bombers"The truth is that if you continue to call everyone a Nigerian then you have not identified the problem. Where were you when Igbos have been killed in the North every year unabately. It has become suicide bombing and you are now shouting? You are exonerating the North and your partners in politics. what are you saying and thinking? dont be blind- becuase you are now a running mate?

[158nevermind]

Dr Bakare will need to rethink asking the North to join when they are the very core of the problems. Middle east countries influences is heavily present with backward views such as marrying off under age girls to peodeuphilles and muslim extremist bombing citizens all in the name of Allah.

Nigeria can never know peace as long as lives were been snorfed out in their elements for rituals. How many Nigerians are prostituted abroad against their will. The sins are just too great for God to ignore.

[emmayusu]

i just begin to wonder wen pple get into position of authority wot dey now become ,we all thauhgt GEJ ,is d saviour Nigeria has been craving for ,bt now is turning to d disaster ,God help us

[citizensbureau]

citizens bureau believes that the cruz of the matter is the low expectations Nigerians have of their leaders. This has allowed for a perpetuation of mediocre leadership. Check out citizensbureau org or m.citizensbureau org The fight back for the people of Nigeria has began.

[UWAGBOE2]

this country is that the people are so religious but not Godly, devils religion,too many black people have death hearth,they can still kill to make their life oki,but they can fight for trute,they love to have the things wich God almigty have created and they dont worship,but they worship killers,ex luciffer

[efesmith1]

nigerians are cowards

[efesmith1]

nigerians should raise against the politicials raise raise raise nigerians it is time it is time my brothers lets stand and fight so our kids and kids will gain and live in peace do not be afraid to die raise nigerians

[buzo4glo]

Am moved! This reminds me of MLK speeches in the fifties& sixties

[olojulagbari]

Very honest and without fear.Hitting the nails just straight to the heads.What a great leader Nigerians (the FOOls) have voted against?

[irokotreeswiss]

God will preserve Dr Tunde Bakare and few more true citizens like him and,save us from Chalatans in power.

[perror007]

The Good thing about Nigeria in time like this is that God always raise a voice from no where: Fela, Abiola, Uche Ogbuagu, etc. I pray there shall be more than one Tunde Bakari this time.

[MUNTULAful]

Gani did all the shouting he could for Nigerians to wake up and rise against these rulling kleptomaniacs but we didnt hear him. Now Pastor Bakare is doing his own calling and we pretend not to hear. When are we going to be serious in effecting change in our country?

[Wierdmaskman]

.Oh father! When are we gonna turn a new leaf.......

[kenafaz1]

What an insightful oratory and a provocative theme '' It takes idiots to be ruled by fools! I was enraged initially by this reality check by Tunde but after going through comments from readers, I calmed down to reflect. All he said is true. However provocative it is, when the stirs one in the face it usually isn't comforting. The truth be said, 9ja smells foul rotten! The problem is US not the United States of America or a foreign entity as incited; Confrontation is inevitably certain. But when

[Toohot989]

This is such a powerful reality check speech. From my perspective, i see more of reality than judgment in all he hs said. its so true. ppl need 2 gt it right. luk at all d wrongs goin on in 9ja, its pretty much disturbing 2 imagine dt as educated n exposed 9jerians r, people r still dying from malaria n abject poverty. Its a shame. i watched d bbc documentary, welcome 2 Lagos, it beat my imagination 2 see d condition ppl in 9ja r living, my God. its simply called suffering n smiling. SAD...

[dele26]

You just wonder when this leaders will start responding to the needs of the suffering Nigerians. It is overly unreasonable and inhumane for a first lady to be found with $13 million when over 14 million Nigerian university graduates are jobless.

[Reba0312]

You are right. But how are we going to do this? We don't have the means to confront these people. Give us weapons, i will surely be the first to stand on line. But my first target will be Obasanjo because he sold us to the west. We have all the resources to be comfortable in Nigeria. Awolowo had good plans for all of us but they buried it all. Most of us are slaves abroad, no jobs at home as well. Where are we safe? Libya has good ambition for Africa, they attacked her because of it.

[zombiefucku]

Only an idiot will hear the truth and doubt it. i was moved by what this man has said and also just to state i never agreeded with his previous political utterances but the man is talking as a pastor and also a former vice presidential nominee. so wat is the next action? Like Fela said " if u feel bad about it do something about it"

[deji4life]

Hey pastor! Just a question.. R u suggesting or pushing for war? Smh!!

[jehazadesign]

Tears on my eyes, who is going to stand up first 'IDIOTS' we have been fooled all the way, let arise

[bloodless90]

IDIOTS

[godfatha5]

This pastor should be given an award, it's time someone stand up and say the truth about that condemned country called NIGERIA... and if you condemn this pastor you are part of the "IDIOTS" he's talking about.

[kennethasia]

i do not normally do this to comment is not my thing, i felt insulted seeing some brainless idiot talking trash i guess they are not even christians.

i love this message 100% if dont like pls just shut up. nigeria is a is dying nation being treated by sick doctors.

if you see anything wrong with poltics and pastoring pls consult you bible. why daniel, moses, mesach, abenigo, samson, elijah, elisha,even jesus tey all have confrotations with rulers pls you idiots just shut up and face the reality

[Gbedu1234]

Am sorry but Pastor Tunde Bakare should just 'SHUT UP'!

[jehazadesign]

@Gbedu1234 there must be something wrong with you, ask God to forgive u cus this man, apart from been man of God and run a ticket for vice president 2011, he is a Nigerian, he has the right to say what he want to say, (Freedom of speech), YOU ARE THE IDIOT THE MAN IS TALKING ABOUT. FOOLISH HUMAN BEEN LIKE YOU. YOU GO SCHOOL AT ALL SELF? U NEED TO SEE WHAT WE FACE IN OUR UNIVERSITIES CUS OF CORRUPTION. AFTER SCHOOL, NO JOB. IDIOT LIKE YOU.

[generalsavimbi]

bakare shud leave 9ja politics and concentrate more on empowering the folks around him and his church.his coming into 9ja politics is notin dan selfish and economic interest.Its high time the mistake of 1914 was corrected so that the younger generation will b able to get themselves out from the influence of all these idiots like bakare too.they like praise singing to these stupid n evil leaders.we hav d devils alternative as options.each option must go wt men if we wan 2 correct the errors

[marvellous2010]

@generalsavimbi thats why nothing is gonna change ! See u can just sit don dey look !

[marvellous2010]

@generalsavimbi thats why nothing is gonna change ! See u cant just sit don dey look ! what is wrong being a Pastor Politician

[marvellous2010]

@generalsavimbi thats why nothing is gonna change ! See u cant just sit don dey look ! what is wrong being a Pastor Politician?? U guys need to open ur mind!!Plsss

[revdstevsola]

The major problem of this country is that the people are so religious but not Godly, whats wrong in a pastor contesting to rule his country, I luked at many people and see how they think, corruption and injustice is the order of the day and you think thats how it will continue, between 1999 to 2011, over 10,000 people had died worthlessly, and you are praying, do you think Jesus was a fool when he got to the temple and didn't pray but cain lashes all that were there, lets wait and see,

[UWAGBOE2]

this country is that the people are so religious but not Godly, devils religion,too many black people have death hearth,

[UWAGBOE2]

@revdstevsola

[piscean2764]

Nigerians! Believers in the One God Almighty! Why open us to the ridicule of the world! This kind of language is childish & derogatory, revealing a lack of respect for others and for one's self & not the kind of language to be used by a pastor or even a politician of those he expects to lead. Such violent language to strangers who are expressing an opinion is indeed the mark of an uneducated person. Debating is taught in Nigeria. He who condones rude exchanges passes judgement upon himself!

[lawson3133]

To identify our problems as Nigerian is not rocket science but ought to excercise the facuties of Bakare and co are the solutions for our problems. Insults does not motive anybody.

[somit53]

if it is indeed true that idiots invite rule from fools then most nigerians,as well as in most other african nations,must be idiots.to hear such people talk about freedom,uprisings,chains,blah blah blah makes me want to puke.they treat their minorities with cruelty and injustice,often in the name of religion.i say,come back and speak when you understand the concepts of which you speak.

[themanabbey]

Pst Bakare need to repent  at this point in time. For going into politics, he missed it all, you could hear he is speaking his own words like an ordinary person with no IQ and not like a man of God. Why did he not preach this to the Buhari them? Am happy he knew he has failed in his calling....God help you Pst.

[marvellous2010]

@themanabbey what do you mean by repent has he commiting any crime,is it a sin for a nigerian excercising his right?Pls watch ur comments.....IDIOT

[themanabbey]

@marvellous2010 : I need not to watch my comments 'cos its the truth and the truth hurts. If i have the opportunity to have an audience with him i will say the same....

[themanabbey]

@marvellous2010 :2 Corinthians 6:14 "Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?" Consider, then, which is the best investment of time regarding Nigeria and it's problems. Politics, or the gospel? But don't make the mistake of trying to mix them, they're like oil and water!

[marvellous2010]

@themanabbey See guy ! Put sentiments apart . The truth is if Nigerians keep looking at all dis looters like this nothing will change . Nigeria and Nigerians will continue to be rotten !

[themanabbey]

@marvellous2010 : Then tell me the changes Pst Bakare made as a member of CPC, don't have time to waste, piscean2764 said it all...read his comment above.

[tomiaman]

@themanabbey Thank you..i am happy you can differentiate the voice of a bitter frustrated neophyte politician from the voice of God..like many of his pronouncements..it will fall to the ground

[piscean2764]

Jeremiah 8:10

Therefore will I give their wives unto others, [and] their fields to them that shall inherit [them]: for every one from THE least even unto THE GREATEST IS given to covetousness, from THE prophet even unto THE priest every one dealeth falsely.

Do not be fooled. the Lord is all seeing and All knowing. He Is The Author and the Finisher. Seek HIM in this. See Luke 21, Specifically from verse 10 to 22. The time will come, when THE LORD decrees, not Pastor Bakare. Who do you serve?

[piscean2764]

This is indeed most unfortunate. Imagine somebody proclaiming this speech to be on par with Martin Luther King speeches! Where did Martin Luther King ever abuse those he was trying to the liberate? When he spoke, he spoke with passion, but not with the deep hurt of a rejected man. Pastor Bakare is an 'educated man'- politics is his calling! He knows how to reach the masses of ill educated Nigerians. The first commandment says, "Thou shalt have no other Gods but me!" Beware-frying pan into fire!

[marvellous2010]

@ 13:40 AYO ORIJA....JEHOVAH RIGGA !!! JEHOVA RIGGA really amuse me

[osaroaigbogun]

There is a thin line between a positive revolution and a very bloody war....

Nigeria is a very fragile case, and we need to be careful hw a revolution is in-sighted, bcos a violent steer cn lead to a bloody war..

Doubt me???? take a peek at d Liberia civil war & that of Sierra Leone & get a minute picture of what may happen in the Nigerian case if we do not handle issues properly, however bad the country seems, it may get worse trying to fix it for good in the wrong way

[marvellous2010]

Nigerians Idiot !!

[teefaj]

Behold the Deliverer!

Alas! How will these Idiots know?

[derrick1751]

A "Pastor Politician" godforbid!!! only in Nigeria Man only in Nigeria.

[abimbola004]

@derrick1751 Oh please! Cut out the crap and learn some freaking history! Dr. Martin Luther King was a Baptist Minister. Do not talk about what you don't know. Nonsense.

[piscean2764]

@abimbola004 So true that Dr. Martin Luther King was a Baptist Minister but he did not run for office. Rather than a politician, he was an activist standing up for what was right and advocating peaceful means!!

Now Malcolm X...That was another issue! "by any means necessary!"...and that now seems to be Pastor Bakare's mantra! My prayer is for The Lord God to give us the right leader. if we settle for a 'false leader, we do ourselves an injustice! Here endeth the first lesson!

[abimbola004]

@piscean2764 Well, we would never know whether he would have run or not. As we all know, Martin Luther King was assassinated. I have no problems with Malcolm X. Although his approach changed during his lifetime, we cannot deny his accomplishments in the emancipation of the black race in America. Sometimes, violence does accomplish things. And there is nothing wrong with being a 'Pastor' and a 'Politician'. The Bible is full of them.

[mwaza02]

To confirm that some are really idiots just read comments and see how some react without reading in between the lines of the speech. you are an idiot if you think you won't revolt and if you say he is biased. Watch and see good will come out of the evil we have suffered if good men do not remain silent.

[jibolaf1]

I dont think I can call anyone an intellectual that thinks all his own people are idiots

[cjaymoneyintl]

I am sorry this speech is not coming from a sincere man, therefore i cant be asked to stir up any revolution. Tunde Bakare should sort his political issues out with his opponents and stop deceiving sincere children of God. Thanks once more.

[marvellous2010]

@cjaymoneyintl something is wrong with ur mindset

[cjaymoneyintl]

I would say 1stly that this is a biased speech. why do u take it into ur power as a man of God you say you are to exonerate Gen Buhari of being among the perpetrators of the problems we are facing. And what does preaching the word of God have to do with calling Nigerians Idiots and their ruler Fools. If you want to be a Revolutionary come out clean and stop making statements that implicate you as a man of God. Thanks.

[cjaymoneyintl]

Rubbish



[hnbala41]

Good inspiring speech, he said many truths, lets hope this will motivate Nigerians to act positively.

[funkky1]

I couldnt believe it when Nigerians decided to vote goodluck in again giving siIly reasons i am too irritated to mention with silly artists dancing on tv.

I simply coudnt believe my ears when my fellow Nigerians where telling me they were voting PDP again, you really wonder how people think and if Nigerias are not the architect of their own doom not just the government, that was when I put all my plans of ever coming back home to a halt.

I feel sorry for Nigeria and wonder at Nigerians

[piscean2764]

I sincerely hope that if indeed the youth should rise up and have a revolution as Pastor Bakare seems to be advocating, that he will be in the forefront... or will he will stand at the back like the elder's in yoruba custom (Kehinde is older thanTaiwo because Kehinde came behind). Sorry guys, I agree that something has to be done about the corruption. But this is not the way! Let us be active by scorning corruption and try to live clean God-fearing lives. Vengeance is mine saith the Lord!

[feebeeventures]

@piscean2764 Pastor will fly to America where he has properties like others,he will not be at the front, who wants to die?

have we forgotten?,babangida started it all in 1985,these a the people that destroy our country.there were decrees and decrees, sss,they killed peoples husbands,father, sons,breadwinner etc. Remember decree 2, no freedom of speech,thousands were killed every week then.what has been destroyed in Nigeria between 1985 -1999,will take forever to put in place,calling us idiots?

[diverxmedium]

I only wish every Nigerian youth could come out of their stupid hip hop haze and discover d truth about this nation!! Pastor Bakare has always been outspoken about the issues in the country but I am not surprised at the results that we have... considering people like mr @70 or watever he calls himself still claim to be intellectuals in this country... Jonathan like someone rightly said still sees himself as a deputy govrnor in the presidents seat.. waiting for orders

[Markks100]

This may be the tonic we've been waiting for. Let revolution begin on facebook, twitter, etc now!

[frankcole124]

i feel this man he has said the truth.....

[donlittle007]

wow, he called them out, every one, including we citizens, he isnt lying, he is saying the truth!

[ADEL4B]

Everything said by this man just remind me of what Fela Anikulapo said decades ago. Sadly, no one was paying attention to him at d time. I think what Nigerians need is someone to take the lead of the revolution he is calling for. Pastor bakare, I totally agree with everything you said but can you please volunteer to take the lead or perhaps I should say be the rebels leader so the rest of us can join u in the struggle to reclaim out mother's land from this "Progress Destruction Party" PDP

[shoneils]

hear the fools laughing...Idiots!!!

[70kes1]

Speech meant for personal gain. thats what i call this. we know the real perpertrators of the violence ravaging the country irrespective of the mind game you are trying to play.

[shoneils]

@70kes1 ur another fool

[marvellous2010]

@70kes1 U r a Big fool ! U dnt knno anything IDIOTIC !!!

@70kes1 You are indeed MuMu @ 70

[jaybee60s2]

A Great speech but ALL Africans MOST UNITE GLOBAL...we here in America are going through the same thing!!!

Hotep...

[thebossforlifeishere]

Buhari's failure might be a blessing in disguise. imagine if he was the president, his policies would have been anti-western and may be they would have invaded Nigeria, because as i have observed we are not killing our selves to the extent they want.

[swiftyana]

@thebossforlifeishere

Are we not doing that right now?

[shoneils]

@thebossforlifeishere dont u realize that in order to grow we need someone who is anti western??

[shoneils]

this is so far the best thing to come from Nigeria. lets see how fools and idiots respond to this...idiots!!

[AfrikanEagle]

I listened to this one all through. This man may never say anything for which he would be remembered. But I tell you what, his voice will eventually ring when the embers arrive to burn down the house of fraud and deceit called Nigeria. It is distressing....

[ajibolamaja1]

We need public figures to start talking like this!!! Any one that criticizes this man will continue to suffer mentally!

[ajibolamaja1]

I am waiting for a foolish Nigerian to criticize this man. Whether he is right or wrong, we don't care! The most obvious thing is that we are suffering and we have been exploited far too much!!!!!! We have kept quiet and focused on fighting among ourselves rather than the people stealing our money! We should all be ashamed of ourselves!!!! We need to rise up and fight these people! Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, etc, it does not matter where you come from! Where has they tribalistic sentiments taken us?

I just hope people will see this as a call to rise-up and take our destiny in our hands. We have all been guilty of 'conspiracy of silence'

tunji and Kayode great editing...pls post more video of Bakare on issues like this
