Gunmen Attack Apostle Suleman’s Convoy, Kill 3 Policemen, 4 Others by ogododo: 7:45pm On Oct 21, 2022
Gunmen on Friday attacked the convoy of Apostle Johnson Suleman along the Benin Auchi Road, Edo State, and allegedly killed seven persons including three policemen.

The PUNCH gathered that Suleman returned from a foreign trip and was heading to a destination in Edo State when the gunmen attacked his convoy around the Auchi area of the state.

During the attack, the gunmen reportedly opened fire on his convoy, allegedly killing three of his police orderlies and four other yet-to-be-identified persons.

Suleman’s lawyer, Samuel Amune, who confirmed the attack to our correspondent, said the cleric just returned from a programme in Tanzania, adding that he escaped death by a whisker.

He said, “He was returning from a journey and he had almost gotten on the shores of Auchi when some assassins attacked him. Three of his police orderlies, among others died. He travelled before and just finished a programme in Tanzania day before yesterday.

“He was returning to Auchi when the gunmen attacked him along Sabingida down to Warake area, and Auchi shares direct boundary with Warake. So, he had passed Warake and was entering the boundaries of Auchi when the attack happened.”

A security expert, Dickson Osajie, who condemned the lack of security in the state, said the attack happened in broad daylight.

He said, “They attacked him (Suleman); seven people including a policeman were killed. The country is not safe; our can people move around with guns at the express and they are not detected. It is a disturbing situation.”

Contacted, the State Police Public Relations Officer, Chuidi Nwabuzor, said, “I just heard about it few seconds ago; but I cannot confirm yet. Let me hear from the Divisional Police Officer covering that area.”

How would a man of God be attacked? dont he have angels bla bla. Buhari's convoy was attacked in his hometown, so mai una rest this insecurity is everywhere

Did God not reveal it to him?? Abel was killed even after offering the best of sacrifices and God was watching while he was getting killed, John the Baptist wey baptise Jesus was beheaded on a request from a lady, Steven was stoned to death, James wey dey serve God, Herod carry am kill and More over, Paul the Apostle was sent on a mission and along the line snake bit him and he had to bear the pain for a long while. All these things happened to these great men of God without being revealed to them afore times

We really can't understand the ways of God so push aside every iota of mockery, now is not the best time

The country is no longer safe. The attacks will only get worse as Christmas approaches.

Believe Buhari and Tinubu's lies at your own peril.

Protect yourself. Stay safe. Stay ready.
