Apostle Suleman breaks silence on convoy attack

Suleman, who described the attack as an ‘assassination attempt’ claimed the gunmen waylaid his convoy and shot at him directly.

The controversial cleric who said this in a video, said his saving grace was the bullet proof vehicle he was riding in.

Suleman added that the bullet proof vehicle has the marks of the multiple bullets shot at him.

Reports had indicated that the convoy of the Auchi based preacher was attacked on Friday afternoon, with four policemen and two other persons killed.

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

He said, “He was returning from a journey and he had almost 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 program in Tanzania.

“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.”
