The founder of Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide was invited by the DSS for allegedly asking his members to kill Fulani herdsmen.

Suleman is expected to appear at the head office of the DSS on Monday, January, 30, 2017 by 10 am, reports say.

Sources close to the Man of God have also confirmed that he received an invitation, adding that 30 lawyers will accompany him to Abuja.

According to Daily Post, the presidency source said “The decision of the DSS to invite the said preacher for talks this week over the statements he is reported to have made is in clear demonstration of the agency’s duty that does not require any kind of presidential directive as is being speculated on the Social Media.

“Anyone, especially leaders, who engages in such questionable conduct, ought to at least be asked a few questions. We just hope religious leaders will also at least call on the said pastor to behave in a Christ-like manner.”

The source also said “Is CAN aware of this kind of statement? Is it in line with Christian conduct? Why haven’t there been a condemnation of this kind of criminal conduct? There is some understandable outrage about cases of violence in Southern Kaduna, yet this coming from a religious leader is certainly even more outrageous.”
