Nigeria’s cup is full – Pastor Tunde Bakare reacts to Fasoranti daughter’s murder

The General Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly in Lagos, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has said “Nigeria’s cup is full”.

Bakare stated this while delivering his sermon on Sunday, in reaction to the gruesome murder of Mrs Funke Olakunrin, the daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti.

The fiery cleric specifically took a swipe at the political and security leaders in the country, saying both had been playing politics with the lives of the citizens through deliberate inaction.

“A few weeks ago here, I called the attention of the nation to the impostors who visited Aso Rock in the name of Afenifere leaders. Now you have killed the daughter of the real Afenifere leader, a 95-year-old man.

“And you think God will overlook these things. Someone who had gone to see her father and returning to her station! I tell you, now, the cup is full,” Bakare said.

He added, “The other day, the wife of the Governor of Central Bank (of Nigeria) was kidnapped; and within a few hours, they did not just rescue the woman, they also arrested those who perpetrated the crime.

“Now, the daughter of Pa Fasoranti has been killed, and we have been hearing only stories, nothing tangible has been achieved.

“If someone desires a thing so seriously and does not know the purpose for such a thing, when he gets it, he won’t achieve anything with it.”
