Apostle Johnson Suleman, General Overseer of the Omega Fire Ministries, has responded to accusations of not seeking justice for the deaths of seven people in his convoy last year.
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that the controversial clergyman was returning from a trip in October 2022 when unidentified gunmen opened fire on his convoy.
Seven people were killed in the incident, including two police officers.
A Twitter user chastised the pastor for refusing to reveal the names of the attackers and for remaining silent about the deaths of the seven people killed in the attack.
Suleman, according to the netizen, should be questioned about the matter, and an update should be provided to the general public.
The tweet reads:
Apostle Suleman is yet to reveal the names of those who sent assassins after him; Seven people were sadly killed (RIP), but he’s not seeking justice for ’em. Why is he keeping silent about this? The authorities needs to bring him in for questioning, & update the general public.
