My church members must vote for Peter Obi: Apostle Suleman

General overseer, Omega Fire Ministries, Johnson Suleman, has called on his members to vote for the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
The Pastor, who made the announcement during Sunday service, declared himself and his family “fully obedient” and revealed his background support for Mr Obi.
“My children, we are fully obedient, fully, hundred per cent; we are not those who make noise on social media; we work in the background, we support,” he said.
Slightly shading other presidential candidates, the pastor threatened his members, saying, “If you like vote something else, If you like go and vote nonsense, you vote insecurity, tribalism, ethnicity, bigotry.
“Me, I am voting Peter Obi, my wife, Peter Obi, and those that love me, Peter Obi,” he announced.
He further accused some of his friends of supporting an undisclosed candidate, solemnly for “what they can get” from him.
“I have friends across the divide, but most of them are supporting because of what they want to get; they know that who they are supporting is bad,” he added.
He also accused other presidential candidates of “destroying the country” and exempted Mr Peter Obi, saying he is “the one that has not destroyed the nation.”
Mr Suleman is a controversial cleric who often makes the news for the wrong reasons. He has been accused by different female celebrities of sleeping with them, though he has denied all allegations.
Nigeria’s 2023 presidential election is set to hold on February 25.
