The Senior Pastor of Omega Fire Ministries (OFM), Apostle Johnson Suleiman, has threatened the life of the Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, over his religious bill to prohibit pastors and churches from practising without proper licensing.
Governor El-Rufai had recently proposed a bill to the State House of Assembly asking for the regulation of religious preaching across the state.
Suleiman attacked the bill titled: ‘A bill for a law to substitute the Kaduna State religious preaching law, 1984’, by asking the governor to revoke the bill or die.
“Why not tell herbalists to obtain licence before they practise their herbalism? Why not tell witches that they need licence to fly?”
“I want to warn the governor of Kaduna state. Many times I have read in the papers how he abused Jesus and Christians came after him. He said that they are joking that nothing can happen. I am talking to you, Kaduna Governor.”
“Listen, I am not against sanitizing a state but you say people should get licence for preaching; it is not applicable in Nigeria. Even a herbalist does not get a license for practising herbalism. When you say license for preaching, then you are standing against the constitution that says freedom of worship. I have no problem, we can test powers now.”
“There are certain laws that cannot happen in this country. Not when Nigeria is under God. If need be, over this matter, heaven will intervene. I am saying this specifically to the executive governor of Kaduna, revoke this law or die.”
