Fr Kelvin, who picked hole in Suleman’s testimony, says it was wrong to “use other people’s misfortune to elevate your own story”.

 

This online media platform reported that Suleman while reacting to alleged assassination attempt on his life on Friday evening, said “my life is in the hands of God, nobody can kill me.”

 

His testimony was preceded by an attack on his motorcade on the Warake road in Auchi, Edo State, leading to the death of at least seven persons, including four police officers.

 

Reacting, Fr Kelvin said the life of the Apostle is not more valuable than that of the police officers and civilians who were murdered in the unfortunate attack.

 

“I have always said it here, when giving testimonies, be sensitive. Don’t use other people’s misfortune to elevate your own story.

 

“In their bid to assassinate you, seven persons were killed and you are like “my life is in the hands of God, nobody can kill me.”

 

“Well, I will not thank God that you survived the assassination, I will rather thank God that you admitted to knowing those that were behind the assassination and shooting.

 

“I call on the police and the government to take it up from there. The lives of those seven persons matter so much. The minister’s life is not more valuable than theirs. A full investigation should be opened immediately until those behind the shooting are arrested and given what they deserve by law.

 

“And for those working closely with the minister, I will advice you take necessary precautions because it seems he knows something that is capable of putting you at risk, which you may not be aware of”, Fr Kelvin posted on his verified Facebook page.

 

Seven persons made up of three policemen and four domestic staff of fiery pastor, Apostle Johnson Suleman of the Omega Fire Ministries were killed late Friday near Auchi at the Water Tank Junction along the Warake -Auchi Road on his way to Auchi returning from a foreign mission.

 

The incident reportedly happened at about 5 pm when an unidentified group of gunmen who eyewitnesses said had been in a Toyota Avalon Car and a ash coloured Sienna vehicle without number plates opened fire at the homecoming convoy of Apostle Johnson Suleman.

 

In what looked like an assassination attempt, eyewitnesses said the two vehicles blocked all other vehicles and maneouvered their way to meet Suleman’s convoy and opened fire on him.

 

Apostle Johnson Suleman is a popular Nigerian televangelist and the current general overseer and senior pastor at Omega Fire Ministries International.

 

His church is headquartered in Auchi, Edo State, and has branches in numerous countries across the globe.

 

Johnson began serving in his current position in 2004 after serving as an assistant pastor at the Armor of God Church in Lagos for several years.
