Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has said the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, ICPC, can\u2019t end corruption in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Bakare spoke at the men\u2019s symposium in honour of Pastor Chinedu Ezekwesili\u2019s 70th birthday in Abuja on Friday.<\/p>\n

He disclosed that the antidote to corruption in Nigeria is when the sons of God start manifesting righteousness.<\/p>\n

According to Bakare: \u201cThere are many theories about how to end corruption in Nigeria, EFCC can\u2019t do it; ICPC can\u2019t fix it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe antidote to corruption is only one thing, the manifestation of the sons of God under righteous authority.<\/p>\n

\u201cSetting up committees to investigate corruption by corrupt individuals, who cannot execute it, is a waste of time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bakare called for a return to God\u2019s original purpose across various spheres of influence, including family, businesses, and national governance.<\/p>\n
