The General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministries International , Apostle Johnson Suleman , says the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, did not order his probe for allegedly sleeping with the wife of Pastor Mike Davids , threatening his life and denying him access to his children.
Apostle Suleman made this known via his verified Twitter handle , @ APOSTLESULEMAN , on Monday afternoon without reacting to other allegations leveled against him by Davids , a former pastor of the church .
“ IGP orders probe on me? Where , when? Maybe my ghost. Just reading stories now . Please discard. There is no such thing, ” he tweeted .
Apostle Suleman ’ s denial comes in spite of a letter from the office of the IGP addressed to the Deputy Inspector-General of Police, Force Intelligence Bureau , Garki , dated January 5, 2021.
The letter, with reference number CB:7000/IGP . SEC /ABJ/Vol. 515/561, was signed by the Principal Staff Officer II to the Inspector- General of Police, ACP Iliya Doma.
The letter is a sequel to a petition written by V. C Ezenagu & Associates on behalf of the aggrieved Pastor Davids who accused Apostle Suleman of threatening his life and preventing him from seeing his three children.
The police letter is titled, ‘ Re : Criminal Petition Against Apostle Johnson Suleman for Enticement of a Married Woman; Adultery; Unlawful Criminal Restraint to Access Children and Threat to Life ’ .
The letter read in part, “ I attach herewith a copy of a letter dated December 30, 2020 with its attachments received from V . C Ezenagu & Associates on the above-underlined subject . The Inspector -General of Police directs that you treat. Accept the assurances of my esteemed regards please . ”
The PUNCH had also reported that the aggrieved pastor accused Suleman of sleeping with his wife and destroying his marriage.
“ Apostle Suleman has damaged my life . I have not seen my wife and children for two years and Apostle Suleman says if I ever go near them , he will have me taken out . I have a video where he said he will make me disappear . I don’ t want to lose my life, ” Davids had said in viral videos.
However, his wife , Pastor Faith Edeko, in a video , described her husband ’ s allegations as cheap blackmail, adding that it was the petitioner that abandoned the marriage and when her relatives reached out to him , he refused to return home.
“ I don’ t know what you hope to achieve , I don’ t know who paid you but the only thing I will say is haven’ t you done enough? Are you not tired of flogging someone ’ s daughter in pain?” she had said .
Attempts to reach Apostle Suleman had proved abortive as his telephone line indicated that it was switched off . A text message was not responded to .
However, Resident Pastor , Omega Fire ministry , Headquarters, Joseph Iyare , who responded on behalf of Apostle Suleman in a terse text message, told The PUNCH that Pastor Davids is “ frustrated by his own evil deeds ” .
