Nigeria: Reasons for not thanking God for the thwarted assassination attempt on Apostle Suleman- FR. Kelvin

Rev. Fr. Kelvin Ugwu, a popular Catholic Missionary priest, has criticized Apostle Suleman for his testimony regarding the failed assassination attempt.

Remember that the apostle was attacked, resulting in the deaths of seven people. He fled, thankfully.

Suleman said, “My life is in God’s hands; nobody can kill me,” in response to an alleged assassination attempt on him on Friday evening.

His testimony came after an attack on his motorcade on the Warake road in Auchi, Edo State, that killed at least seven people, including four police officers.

Reacting, Fr Kelvin faulted Suleman’s testimony, saying it was wrong to “use other people’s misfortune to elevate your own story”.

“I have always said it here, when giving testimonies, be sensitive. Don’t use other people’s misfortune to elevate your own story.

“In their bid to assassinate you, seven persons were killed and you are like “my life is in the hands of God, nobody can kill me.”

“Well, I will not thank God that you survived the assassination, I will rather thank God that you admitted to knowing those that were behind the assassination and shooting.

“I call on the police and the government to take it up from there. The lives of those seven persons matter so much. The minister’s life is not more valuable than theirs. A full investigation should be opened immediately until those behind the shooting are arrested and given what they deserve by law.

“And for those working closely with the minister, I will advice you take necessary precautions because it seems he knows something that is capable of putting you at risk, which you may not be aware of”, Fr Kelvin posted on his verified Facebook page.
