After escaping an attempted murder on Friday, October 21 in Auchi, Edo State, Apostle Johnson Suleman, General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministries (OFM), has spoken out.
According to earlier reports, gunmen ambushed the clergyman’s convoy on Auchi’s Warake road.
The assailants opened fire at them and killed seven persons – four policemen, one driver and a lady. Fortunately for the clergyman, he and his family managed to escape unhurt.
In a video posted on his church’s social media page, Apostle Suleman stated he knows those who carried out the horrific attack but won’t name them. This was his first public statement since the attack. He claims that he is aware that they will appear to refute the claim.
He said in part,
“I just escaped an assassination attempt where seven people were killed. They opened fire on my car. My wife and my kids were there. The escort car with police, they killed the policemen. They killed the other people in the escort car, the bus, that were with us. They killed seven people.
People who did this are expecting me to come out and mention their names, so they can come out and deny it but I won’t do that. The truth of the matter is, you can’t kill me, my life is in the hand of God, I’m a man of God.”
A concerted deception swallows an uncoordinated truth, the pastor stated in response to the scandal that has surrounded his life for years, and eventually the truth will be revealed.
