Ohanaeze Youths Council, (OYC) the apex youth body in the Igbo nation has charged the General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide, Apostle Johnson Suleiman, to desist from dragging image of the body of Christ through the mud.
Describing Suleiman as “a modern Pulpit Bandit”, Ohanaeze Youth advised the former to pray earnestly so as to be able to put under check his sexual urge.
This is following a recent rude attack against the Igbo nation by Suleiman which trended on the social media wherein the latter had spoken vituperatively of the race.
Journalist had reported on Wednesday, April 21, 2022, that Suleiman had in the said video tagged “Ndigbo as Shameless people”, an act of derogation which did not go down well with the Igbo body.
Reacting to the said derogatory video, the Council, through a release signed by the national President, Comrd. Igboayaka O. Igboayaka who reminded Suleiman of his trending “dirty past records”, issued Suleiman a 3-day ultimatum to apologize to Ndigbo, threatening that, “or I will take other actions against this insult to Igbo race to another level.
It could be recalled that in the year 2017 two ladies Stephanie Otobo and Queen Esther had in what seemed to be simultaneous accused the “man of God” of involvement in sexual relationships with them.
The lady, who identified herself as Queen Esther, said she began a sexual relationship with Mr. Suleman (popularly known as Apostle Suleman) in 2013 before a “catastrophic break-up” a year later.
“I was an usher in his branch church, but I had a sexual relationship with him as he lured me into it in order to solve my spiritual problem and limitations to success in career and marriage, but after the sex he didn’t solve the problems for me, instead he started making proposal for us to marry,” Ms. Esther told PREMIUM TIMES on Sunday.
“I dated Apostle Suleman while I was a member in his church, he was my pastor, spiritual director and mentor aside being a boyfriend, from August 2013 to 2014 April.”
Ms. Esther’s claims came two days after Ms. Otobo, a Canadian-based singer, told journalists about her alleged amorous affair with the cleric.
Although Mr. Suleman denies all the allegations.”…(Source: Premium Times)
But, According to the release, Igboayaka alleged that “Pastor Suleiman’s insatiable quest for quick money in order to live a loft life has lured him into political demarketing hence 2023 Nigeria president of Southeast extraction has taken a center stage in Nigeria political project.”
The release read in detail: “Obviously, Pastor Johnson Suleiman is a modern Pulpit Bandit who depends on the flesh of poor Nigerians and politicians to make a living. His materialistic tendency must have lured him to corrupt presidential aspirants like Bola Tinubu and Co to undermine the 2023 presidential project of Southeast to tactically draw attention of hate and mistrust against Ndigbo.
On the alleged hysterical sexual urge of the “Pastor”, Igboayaka lamented that, “In all ramifications, Pastor Suleiman should work on his disunity body parts and high level of uncontrollable sexual urge running through his veins before trying to control or see the “shameless of Ndigbo”.
“If unity runs in Pastor Suleiman veins he shouldn’t have broken away from Armour of God Church to establish his own church. The Master, Jesus Christ taught us that “before you remove a piece of wood in someone else’s eyes, you must first remove the big plank in your eyes”.
Embittered Igboayaka who went further to state emphatically that the Igbo race was devoid of betrayal, described the act as an irresistible characteristic of mankind, saying;
“Betrayal is an attribute of man but not every man; betrayal is an act of man, but it’s not an act of Ndigbo, if am wrong Pastor Johnson Suleiman should tell the world any tribe that have never betrayed one another. Even in the bible Joseph was betrayed by his brother, does that make the Jews shameless?”
Continuing, amidst indignation, he said: Awolowo betrayed Akintola, Ernest Shoeniken betrayed MKO Abiola and accepted to be the Interim Head of State, Bola Tinubu betrayed MKO Abiola, Yemi Osibanjo betrayed Bola Tinubu, Afonja sold Kwara Yoruba land to Fulani political oligarchy, Obasanjo in 1999 was rejected and betrayed by his kinsmen.
“In the North, Murtala Mohammed removed Gen. Yakubu Gowon as the head of state, Dimka assassinated Mohammed as the head of state, Buhari removed Shehu Shagari, Even in Edo State were Pastor Johnson Suleiman came from, Adams Oshomhole in a super conspiracy dealt with Oyegun as APC National Chairman. But why Pastor Johnson Suleiman have not insulted the Yorubas or Hausa/Fulani’s on pulpit and called them “Shameless Yorubas or Shameless Hausa fulani’s?
In socio-political adventure betrayal is seen among tribes and nations even families.
“I, therefore, charge Suleiman to apologize to Ndigbo within 72 hours or I will take other actions against this insult to Igbo race to another level”, the Igbo youth leader ordered.
