He has received national and international attention for his televangelism, which has sometimes been critical of the Nigerian government.[1] He was reportedly arrested in March 2002 after preaching sermons critical of then-president Olusegun Obasanjo.[2] He has appeared as a preacher on AIT television. The Nigerian presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday, 31 January, announced Pastor Tunde Bakare of the Latter Rain Assembly, Lagos as his running mate for the 2011 Nigerian presidential election which he accepted. CPC lost the presidential election to PDP, and Pastor Bakare remains a fierce critic of the Nigerian government and leadership. He was formerly a pastor at the Deeper Life Bible Church before he left to join the Redeemed Christian Church of God which he soon left to form his own. Early lifePastor Bakare attended All Saints Primary School, Kemta, Abeokuta and subsequently Lisabi Grammar School, Abeokuta, after which he studied law at the University of Lagos between 1977 and 1980. He was called to the Bar in 1981 and following his NYSC, he practiced law with Gani Fawehinmi Chambers, Rotimi Williams & Co and Burke & Co, Solicitors. He established his own law firm Tunde Bakare & Co (El-Shaddai Chambers) in October 1984.[3] In May 1988, at the peak of his legal career he was called into ministry and he founded The Latter Rain Assembly (End-Time Church) on 1 April 1989 and is currently the Serving Overseer of the church.[4] He presides over Global Apostolic Impact Network (GAIN) – a network of churches, ministries and kingdom businesses committed to advancing the Kingdom of God on earth. Dr. Bakare is also the President of Latter Rain Ministries, Inc. (Church Development Center) in Atlanta, GA, USA, a ministry committed to restoring today's church to the scriptural pattern. In recognition of his years of exploits and global impact in ministry, he was honoured with a Doctor of Ministry degree by the Indiana Christian University under the leadership of his mentor, Dr. Lester Sumrall in 1996.[5] ConvictionsHis persuasion: "I’m fully persuaded that I will live long in health; having long life in health, with wealth for the purpose for which He created me to be a blessing to humanity". This persuasion invariably affects and informs his thought patterns, decision making process and choices in life. His conviction: "God will not justify the wicked, He will not forsake the righteous; the wickedness of a wicked man will fall upon his head and the righteousness of a righteous man will answer for him in the days to come". "The minority that is right will become the majority and the majority that is wrong will become the minority, it’s just a matter of time". His passion: "To see that the true perspective of the gospel of Jesus Christ is given to people without any contamination or mixture" and "To see a Nigeria that works in his lifetime". His Legacy: "My legacy? The grace to pray through". Surprisingly, Pastor Bakare initially as a young Christian did not have a flare or desire to pray, but according to him, circumstances in his marriage as orchestrated by God taught him not only how to pray but also how to pray through. Secret of his success: Obedience only to the word and instructions of God. Sandwiched between his willingness and desire to do the will of God is obedience even when all things are working contrary to the word of God. Personal lifePastor (Dr.) ‘Tunde Bakare was born to a Muslim mother and a Muslim father, whom he did not grow up to know. His mother, Madam Abigail Eebudola Bakare raised him. Married to Mrs. Olayide Bakare in 1984, Pastor Bakare’s marriage has played a pivotal role in his life, career and ministry. "Mrs. B", as she is affectionately called by her husband, has been involved in ministry work all her adult life. Pastor and Mrs. Bakare have raised two girls and three boys in their over thirty years of marriage.[6] References1. ^{{Cite book |page=174 |year=2004 |publisher=Routledge |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=WW-XcDe-IMEC |title=New religious movements in the twenty-first century }} 2. ^{{Cite news |url=http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?sf=86&set_id=1&click_id=68&art_id=qw1015158240108B252 |publisher=The Independent (South Africa) |accessdate=26 April 2009 |date=3 March 2002 |title=Nigeria's 'prophet of doom' detained }} 3. ^{{cite web|last1=Bakare|first1=Tunde|title=About Tunde Bakare|url=http://tundebakare.com/about/|website=http://tundebakare.com}} 4. ^{{cite web|last1=Latter Rain Assembly|title=About|url=http://lraglobal.org/the-executive-team/|website=https://lraglobal.org/}} 5. ^{{cite web|last1=Bakare|first1=Tunde|title=About Tunde Bakare|url=http://tundebakare.com/about/|website=http://tundebakare.com}} 6. ^{{cite web|last1=Bakare|first1=Tunde|title=About Tunde Bakare|url=http://tundebakare.com/about/|website=http://tundebakare.com}} External links
