Founder of Omega Fire Ministries,
Apostle Johnson Suleiman has responded to the counsel of his biological father
not to criticize President Mohammadu Buhari and the ruling All Progressives
Congress (APC).
In an interview with Vanguard on
Thursday, the cleric reiterated that the Buhari-led administration should take
the issue of the security of lives and property of the citizenry seriously.
His words: “My father is my
number one hero in this life and I respect him so much; hence I would never
hurt his feelings over any sort of domestic or public matters.
“Ordinarily speaking, I wouldn’t
have responded to my father’s press statements, based on my cultural upbringing
that prohibits children from reacting to parental chastening, but rather accept
the wisdom that comes out of such actions
“But let me state that, I have
never been interested in any form of political activities or happenings all my
life; neither do I belong to any political party/association. I am an ardent
crusader for equity and justice for all.”
The fiery preacher warned those
bent on creating problems in his private life all in the name of politics to
get busy with more productive issues.
“Being a preacher and a defender
of the gospel of Jesus Christ for many years, I find it hard to keep mute and
pretend, or even look away while Christians and innocent people of other faith
are being massacred at random.
“Its against my belief. Hence, I
have consistently cried out to the government for quick intervention. My simple
offence is that I speak against the activities of herdsmen who kill Christians
and defenceless Nigerians at will and get away with it.
“While no government body or
security agency seem to be doing or saying anything about it. I reiterate my
position today, that I shall not stop talking about it, calling on the
government to rise to its responsibility of protecting lives and property of
the Nigerian people.
“Neither will I stop condemning
the state of insecurity in Nigeria and the unabated spate of killings of
innocent citizens of our land by those who are ordinarily supposed to have been
criminalized, proscribed and prosecuted by now.
“I have never been against any
Government let alone the APC government. But I urge the President and his
cabinet to do the needful in curbing the high rate of insecurity ravaging our
country.
“Mr. President should also rise up and do
justice to all Nigerians; irrespective of the people’s socio-political, ethnic
or religious affiliations. Let the killing of Christians stop and will keep
quiet,” he said.
Apostle Suleiman, your conscience will always judge you on the life's of so many innocent girls or ladies you have destroyed. We need not judge but commit all to who you serve and as regards your comments on the killings.. .ones it mean your prayers and that of so called men of God cannot safe or stop the killings?
ReplyDeletewhat are your prayers for? To get preyed on the innocent young and marriageable girls? The Almighty God is so patient. Speak and decree as usual to God to help stop not to curb the situation.
