Apostle Suleman Blames El Rufai For Sex Scandal Says Kaduna Governor Sponsored Stephanie Otobo
March 15, 2017 – Apostle Suleman Blames El Rufai For Sex Scandal, Pastor Claims Kaduna Governor Sponsored Daniella Okeke & Stephanie Otobo
In a desperate bid to not own up to the sexual abuse allegation brought against him by some of his victims, the founder of Omega Fire Ministries in Edo state, Johnson Suleman has blamed the governor of Kaduna state.
In a statement issued in Abuja yesterday, the Pastor through his spokesman, Shaibu Phrank said investigations pointed to Kaduna Governor as the man behind his sex scandal.
The statement reads;
If El-Rufai was the one sponsoring the faceless Esther, then who is sponsoring Stephanie Otobo and Daniella Okeke?
Are we to blame El-rufai for putting Apostle Suleman’s name on Daniella Okeke’s $76,000 car registration documents???
These and many more question need clarification.
Apostle Suleman who is well respected by his followers should come straight to take his stand against all these accusations if he’s truly innocent.
Why didn’t he distance himself from Daniella Okeke???? His silence on this matter is an acceptance of the fact that he has an ongoing relationship with the alleged Nollywood prostitute .

This is not convincing at all…same spokesman mentioned that it was a sting operation in arresting Ms.Otobo (lame excuse) cos she wants to blackmail Suleman and was known as serial blackmailer. Then when the lady open up,they backtracked.
Bringing anybody behind this means diversion in facing the fact. Only few people among Suleman’s inner caucus knows he’s capable of doing as accused. Other members who always contribute money will be swearing for him because he is their god.
No doubt that this Suleman is powerful,(not sure is from God) he is connected within Nigeria and know how to press his own button, negotiation is still going on to kill this matter.

Apostle as a man of God you do not need to mention names, just focus on your work which God called you into.

Truly, the Nigerian constitution allows among others, freedom of speech and expression but I make bold to say in reality, it is only applicable to those who live above board and have no skeleton in their cupboard.
The reason is simple, “He who comes to equity must come with clean hands, “While those who live in glass house don’t throw stones.”
Naturally, I would not have commented on this scandal but for the following reasons:
1. As a Nigerian
2. as a Christian who listen to most of our pastors and particularly the Apostle since 2014
3. We should put our in perspectives: Apostle Suleman may be our relation or Otobo may be a family member
Having said that, it battles me that some people will sell their conscience and reasoning for a pot of porridge. It is important to be objective and also put ourselves I perspectives when commenting on sensitive issues as this.
I’m of the opinion that it is better to err on the side of caution than on the side of error which is what has befallen the Apostle; there’s limit to good doing lest it is misconstrued as something else. While the scandal remains an allegation until both parties sort themselves out in the court of law, it is incumbent on our people to stay clear from subjecting the main actors (Apostle and Otobo) to media trial and embarrassment at least for the sake of their families more importantly the innocent children of the Apostle who will face untold embarrassment as a result of this.
In all of these, it is obvious that nobody in the Apostle’s camp including the Apostle himself has knowledge of crisis or Scandal management as everyone appears to be rushing to the press competing to make contradictory and inflammatory statements which mockery of the strengths of their argument before smart and intelligent minds.
First, the Apostle was reported to have boasted “ they could have used a more presentable person.” He didn’t have to say that because that means he is susceptible to a more presentable person!
Second, the wife came on the air in defense of her husband which is expected and commendable) but she merely emphasized the humanitarian nature of her husband and how smart and intelligent she is to know if such was going on. But one wonders if she’s not been counseling couples in their church, or has never heard stories that led to many broken marriages even among several men of God.
Thirdly, the wife eventually messed up a chance of making a good case when she remarked that “most Nigerians are gullible.”, For real? Such a derogatory comment from a Pastor and even a pastor’s wife! She needs another lesson on Matthew 5:22
Still on “gullible Nigerians” according to Rev Dr. Lizzy Suleman, since the majority of their congregation are Nigerians it’s obvious they fall into this category, which also means she needs to imbibe the lesson in James 3:5-6 about taming the tongue.
Fourth, when the Apostle’s agents got their intelligence report about a secret of Otobo camp meeting in a Lagos hotel why can’t they inform the police or try to mobilize their men to apprehend these people? Rather they prefer to rush to the media. Certainly, that is far from the truth!
I’ll conclude with the following scripture Psalm 105:15 Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm.” The anointed man must operate within the dictates of his anointing else; he will be rubbished just like Samson in Judges 14. And this brings me to the question; how do you know whom God anointed from Man-anointed?
An anointed man must flee all appearances of evil (1 Thessalonians 5:22). After all, when a handshake extends beyond the hand, it turns to something else. We cannot play God, plain and simple!
Some ways of knowing are holiness, pure humility, overlooking faults, quick to hear and slow to respond, and more importantly, allowing God to fight his battle while he goes to God in prayer. Jesus demonstrated this in John 18: 10-11 when they came for his arrest, and Peter cut off the ear of one of the intruders that if he wanted to fight, He has a legion of angels to do that.
Please let all parties shift their media wars to the court premises for a legal solution while supporters of both camps should please sheath their swords for the sake of the church, family, the innocent children of the Apostle and the innocent siblings of otobo.
I rest my case

I said before and am saying again, that Independent investigators or forensics from outside the country should be hired to handle this project, I dont trust Nigerian authorities, with the economic state of this country they can take any bribe, Suleman has more to loose so he should be the one hiring them to clear his name…. easy..
And yes I agree why is he not disputing the nollywood prositute, he is numb about that, because that danilla or deliailah, is quiet she has not exposed him.

Suleman blames everyone , the government, Kemayo, El Rufayi, Fulani herdmen, except himself…. It would be good to see him saying” na devil made me do it!! ….that will settle everything, then we move forward, to another pastor scandal because there is always another pastor scandal waiting, then will forget about his

2 Corinthians 11:13-15 says:For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds. Thank you Lord for exposing them one by one.

One of the tenets and principle of a good Christian is to tell the truth, no matter how bitter it is, but Chtistians of nowadays do not care, they ignore these basic principles, instead they see their preachers as their God. Most of Apostle Suleiman followers know the truth but holding themselves back to speak against immoral acts in the Church.
About 3 years ago similar incidence happened to one Pastor Oguntoyinbo of COZA Abuja. He slept with one of his church female member outside the Country during one of organized crusade. The lady in the center of scandal came out and seek for forgiveness from God because realized that should never had happen but the Pastor involved never admitted or deny the allegation which to me is an admission of guilt. What happened after that? some die hard followers denied their pastor ever had anything to do with that lady.
It is okay to make mistakes as a Christian and seek for forgiveness. Nobody is above mistake but trying to cover up and tell another lie to cover the previous lie is not a Christian way. This made me had a serious thought that this man is an hypocrite. This is what happens when God has never called some of the fake Pastors, they will say God has called them and start building church to make money using God’s name to deceive people. Some Armed Robbers are better than most of these fraudulent Pastors. The difference is, the Armed Robbers carry guns while the latter use Sunday Sunday tithe to rob people out of their hard earned money.
