Apostle Pastor Curses Governor El-rufa'i by RICHIFA14(m): 5:45pm On Mar 14, 2016 |
Apostle Suleman Curses El-
Rufai – “Revoke Preaching
Regulation or Die”
Apostle Johnson Suleiman, the Senior
Pastor of Omega Fire Ministries (OFM),
with headquaters in Auchi, Edo State and
President of Celebration TV has rained
curses on Governor Nasir El-Rufai of
Kaduna State, over his directive that
pastors and churches must be licenced to
preach.
In a video that is being circulated on
social media, he warned the governor:
“Revoke your law or die!”
Recently, Governor El-Rufai sent a bill to
the State House of Assembly to regulate
religious preaching across the state. The
bill titled: “A bill for a law to substitute
the Kaduna State religious preaching law,
1984” is also aimed at banning the usage
of loudspeaker for religious purposes
“other than inside a Mosques or Church
and the surrounding areas outside the
stipulated prayer times.”
Government wanted the Assembly to
enact the law that will stop the
playing or circulating of “all cassettes,
CDs, flash drives or any other
communication gadgets containing
religious recordings from accredited
preachers other than inside one’s house,
porch, Church, Mosques and other
designated place of worship.”
The bill seeks to ban sales or playing of
any cassette containing “religious
recordings in which abusive language is
used against any person or religious
organisation or religious leaders (past or
present).”
The bill, if pasted into law, will prohibit
sales of religious books, usage of abusive
and derogatory terms in describing any
religion.
The bill propose that any person found
guilty of preaching without a valid licence
and other offences under the law “shall be
liable to two years in prison or pay a fine
of N200, 000.”
Although Pastor Suleiman did not oppose
sanitising the state in many areas, he was
angry about the issue of “preaching by
licence.”
Suleiman said further that there were men
of God before El-Rufai was governor and
there will be men of God after he leaves.
“Why not tell herbalists to obtain licence
before they practise their herbalism? Why
not tell witches that they need licence to
fly?”, the pastor asked rhetorically.
He added that asking a pastor to obtain
licence is against the Constitution of
Nigeria, “When you say licence, you are
acting against freedom of worship”. He
asked the governor to stay off his plan,
“unless you want your cabinet to reduce…
people may just sleep without waking up”
