Apostle Johnson Suleman has alleged foul play by the police after one of the alleged gunmen involved in the Friday attack against him was caught and immediately killed allegedly by the police.
Apostle Suleman, a controversial preacher who leads Omega Fire Ministry International, had escaped death by the whiskers when suspected assassins opened fire on his convoy in Auchi, Edo State, leaving seven of his aides including four police escorts gunned down in the attack.
Sharing a video of a dead man lying in a car in a tweet on Friday night, Mr Suleman accused Nigeria police of killing one of his assailants caught to “cover up.”
