Prominent megachurch pastor and politician, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has declared himself as the legitimate successor of Muhammadu Buhari and the country's 16th President.

The founder of the Latter Rain Assembly made the rather contriversial statement during the church's Sunday sermon yesterday, proclaiming becoming president is one of his life purposes according to God's scheme of things revealed to him.

Bakare, Buhari's former running mate in the 2011 Nigerian presidential election, said while incumbent Buhari is number 15, he would be the 16th president of Nigeria.

The controversial pastor maintained that God had prepared him for this job for more than 30 years.

“I will succeed Buhari as President of Nigeria, nothing can change it. I am number 16, Buhari is number 15. I never said it to you before. I am saying it now and nothing can change it.

“In the name of Jesus, he is number 15. I am number 16. To this end was I born and for this purpose came I into the world. I have prepared you for this for more than 30 years,” he said.
