The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Tuesday, cautioned
Apostle Johnson Suleman of Omega Fire Ministries and Pastor Tunde Bakare
against unguarded utterances.
IPOB’s spokesman, Emma Powerful, said Suleman should guard
his utterances against the separatist group and the Igbo nation.
Powerful lamented that Suleman and Bakare verbally attacked
IPOB and the Igbo nation without cause.
In a statement he signed, Powerful warned Suleman and Bakare
to steer clear of issues concerning IPOB and the Igbo nation.
According to Powerful, Suleman and Bakare’s unguarded
comments against IPOB and Igbo nation would not be tolerated.
He said: “The attention of the Indigenous People of Biafra,
IPOB, under the command of our Leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has been drawn to the
unprovoked verbal attack and ranting by Apostle Suleiman against IPOB and the
enterprising Igbo nation.
“It is a puzzle that a man of God will abandon his calling
and resort to attacking a nation without any cause. When has unguarded
utterance against IPOB and the Igbo nation become part of Suleman’s calling?
“We don’t intend to join issues with Apostle Suleiman and his
likes such as Tunde Bakare but our message to them is very unambiguous: They
should steer clear from any matter concerning IPOB or the great Igbo race.
“Let them concentrate on their apostolic calling and
restrain from unguarded utterances or vituperations on subjects beyond them.
“We warn Apostle Suleiman and his likes to restrain from any
comments on IPOB or Igbo nation as that will not be tolerated anymore. We don’t
want to have issues with any man of God, and men of God should know their
limits.
“Men of God in the bible days were never known for
controversies.”
Recently, Suleman claimed Nigerians do not trust Igbos
because they don’t support themselves.
The cleric alleged that Igbos tear themselves down at any
given opportunity.
Citing how Igbos have fought against each other, Suleman
said an Igbo Senate President, Evan Enwerem was removed by another Igbo man,
Chuba Okadigbo.
