Hours after writing Tunde Bakare of The Citadel Church an open letter, where he accused him of tacit endorsement and support for the alleged 2023 presidential ambition of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, APC National Leader, whom he had earlier taken to the cleaners, former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has fired another salvo.
This time, he’s asking Bakare to confront him face to face and not send him an emissary in the person of Afenifere’s spokesperson, Yinka Odumakin. He also asked Bakare not to think that he could taunt him with his unpleasant past.
Bakare in taunting Fani-Kayode over his open letter to him (Bakare), had in a second letter addressed to Odumakin said, “Good morning Yinka. Hope you are much better. I have just read Femi Fani-Kayode’s piece where he quoted you and others.
‘As he described you affectionately as his brother in the piece, I believe you are either companions or must be in the same league or camp. I have only one appeal to make through you to him: Tell him to expose my supposed “ugly past of 1990″ he must know about and the shady deals involving some bank that just changed hands that involved me in any shape or manner.”
“If Femi does not do so as soon as possible then he has published deliberate falsehood about me. I will await this publication soonest. For the sake of Femi’s mother who I ministered Christ to in their Papa home while Femi himself was still in the grip of Satan, I will hold my peace for now.
“My last word to you and to the likes of Femi is that 10,000 times 10,000 of Tinubu or any one for that matter has nothing on me to make me say the words I spoke for and against him either in the past or now. No one in Nigeria or elsewhere in the world can blackmail me over anything done in the past to any one or with any one. If you or him or any other person know of any shady deal that I have done with any individual, corporation or government, please feel free to publish it.
“As Charles Spurgeon said, ‘my whole life can be written on the sky and there will be no blemish all because of what Christ has done in my life’. I remain yours sincerely, the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. See 2 Corinthians 5:21.
‘Yinka Odumakin I cannot thank you enough for reading this long epistle in your present state and for distributing same on your different platforms.
“Remain Blessed.
“Tunde Bakare.”
Fani-Kayode had responded, “Yinka, tell Tunde Arewa that I only asked questions. I made no assertions and indulged in no falsehood. I simply asked him to clear the air. Can’t we ask questions? Is he God? Why is he so upset? Why can’t he just answer the questions rather than get his knickers in a twist?
“In any case why is he sending you to me? If he is a man let him reach me himself and not send you to me. I do not react well to threats and you are not his messenger. If he has anything to say to me let him say it. I am waiting. And I will respond to him fire for fire.
“As for my past he can say what he likes. Nothing is hidden. I have given my testimony publicly many times including before the Nigerian Senate & I have always said that I am a living manifestation of God’s mercy & grace. Everyone has a past.No-one is an angel, including him.
“I was troubled 30 years ago. I went to Bible school in Ghana. God delivered me and my life was never the same again. End of story. That is my testimony and it is a great and miraculous one. That is why I am a believer. That is why I am so proud of the God that I serve.
“That is why I love Him so much & will do anything for Him. Thanks be to God. Unlike others I do not hide my past but instead I tell the world about how God delivered me from it. And if the devil wants to use my past against me I will use his future against him. Let God judge!”
