The General Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly made this known during a press conference after his Sunday morning sermon titled, “The birth pangs of a new Nigeria.”
“If you want to know whether the President (Muhammadu Buhari) is getting better (and) recovering, I said in the course of that message – he’s on the sure path to recovery. Give him time. The Niger Republic has not seen their president for a while.

Pastor Bakare ran alongside Buhari for the presidency under the defunct Congress for Progressive Change, CPC in 2011.
