Ibekimi Oriamaja Reports
Apostle Johnson Suleman, General Overseer and Senior Pastor of the Omega Fire Ministries, has responded to allegations that he used officers of the Nigeria Police Force killed during an attack on his convoy for rituals.
Suleman narrowly escaped death on Friday after dreaded gunmen opened fire on his convoy while returning from Edo State, shortly after his arrival in Nigeria from a trip abroad, according to Track News.
At least seven people were killed in the Friday attack, including three police officers.
However, while victims of the attack were still waking up and expressing their sadness, a self-proclaimed officer of the force, Sheyi Peters Alfred, took to Facebook to claim that Apostle Suleman used the officers for rituals.
Alfred claimed in the now-deleted post that his Mopols were the ones protecting the Apostle and that the cleric had committed numerous atrocities.
Alfred also claimed that the lady who died in the Benin attack was well-versed in Apostle Suleman’s dealings. The cleric would not have had the audacity to make a video about his safety if his wife and children had been killed by the assailants, according to the self-proclaimed cop.

However, in response to Peters’ viral social media posts, Apostle Suleman stated that it is now time to begin speaking out about allegations leveled against him since 2017.
The cleric slammed claims that he used and was still using mobile police officers for rituals, emphasizing that he had never met the so-called officer Peters before.
The claims were categorically denied by Apostle Suleman, who stated that he had reported the self-proclaimed officer to the Inspector General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, and that he must speak with proof.
“This is an acclaimed police officer named Sheyi Peters Alfred,” Apostle Suleman tweeted. He made viral Facebook posts about how he used to give me mobile policemen and I used them for rituals.
“I’ve never met him in real life or in a dream…he said the girl who died goes places for me.”
“He claimed that the girl who was shot was one of those with whom we cause havoc.” That girl was only 15 years old. If everything you say is true, may God bless you; if not, may you be disgraced. I don’t respond to people, but this is a sworn officer of the law who is lying like Satan.
“I notified the inspector general and the appropriate Qtrs.” He who alleges must provide evidence. I believe it is past time for me to speak up, because silence is considered consent. I will confront many years of lies with proof, and people will be shocked.”
