Pastor Tunde Bakare Opens Up On His Collapse

On May 18, Pastor Tunde Bakare, the general overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly had collapsed while delivering a lecture in Lagos state and was rushed to the Reddington Hospital.

In YouTube video by Sahara Reporters, Bakare disclosed details of his spiritual warfare after his collapse.

The pastor, who was speaking last Sunday on the stage of his Latter Rain Assembly church said the cause of his collapse was exhaustion, too much work and too much people’s pressure.

According to him, his exhaustion was partly caused by his travels between Lagos, Abuja, London, and Atlanta, US, adding that he had ignored the warning signs in the days leading to his collapse.

He told members of his church that he was discharged with a clean bill of health and is now on compulsory medication of two liters of water per day.

The cleric also talked about a premonition he had during a dream. He said he saw a humungous giant in Igbo attire, and it chased and mocked him in the dream.

He said: “One afternoon I had a dream. It was an unusual dream. I saw a ring on my little finger. I don’t wear two rings, I only wear one. I looked up and coming from my left side was an unusual giant I’d never seen before. It was unusually humongous and wore an Igbo attire. I didn’t know its tribe. It was a giant and it was coming towards me. All that I knew to do was raise the ring up. As soon as I raised it, it laughed and went on. I went to the crowd addressed the crowd n woke up.”

He however, could not explain what the giant could mean or why it wore Igbo attire.

After, Pastor Bakare’s collapse, his church had released an official press statement to assure his followers that he was hale and hearty.

Nigeria, Chad, others launch joint operation against B’Haram

A total of 3,600 foreign soldiers from Nigeria’s francophone neigbours have been deployed to work alongside the Nigerian component of the Multi National Joint Task Force to fight the members of the Boko Haram Islamic sect.

Investigation conducted by our correspondent revealed that Chad with 2, 500 soldiers contributed the largest number of troops to the new offensive against the sect.

The other countries, Niger and Cameroon are contributing 700 and 400 troops respectively to the joint campaigns against the insurgents.

It was also learnt that the MNJTF had started massive air strikes and ground offensives against the insurgents. Though it was reported that nine Chadian soldiers were killed in the battle to root out the Boko Haram fighters from Gamboru Ngala on Tuesday, the sect also lost about 200 soldiers.

Reports on Chadian state television confirmed that the soldiers killed 200 Boko Haram fighters and lost nine troops in the encounters in the two border communities north of Maiduguri.

The Director of Defence Information, Maj. Gen. Chris Olukolade, declined to comment on the casualties suffered by the Chadian forces in the reported offensive against the insurgents at Gamboru Ngala.

Olukolade also declined comments on the number of troops contributed by other countries in the joint operation.

However, Olukolade confirmed that a total of 2,500 Chadian soldiers were deployed for the joint operation.

He said that the 2,500 soldiers comprised those that would watch over the Chadian end of the border and those that would be involved in the missions.

He said, “I cannot speak on the casualties being claimed. However, as to the figure, 2,500 represents the total number the Chadian Forces are expected to deploy.

“These include those who will keep watch at their own country’s side of the border as well as those who will be involved in the joint patrols and operations and campaigns,” he said in a text message to our correspondent.
