Kaduna state governor, Nasir El-Rufai, says Apostle Johnson Suleiman of
the Omega Fire Ministries who has repeatedly said he will die for
introducing the proposed Kadauna Religious Regulating bill, should tell
him when the death will happen. El-Rufai said this while speaking to
reporters in Kaduna state recently
"Most of the people that say I would die, as if I would not die, are
people who call themselves Christian clergy. Of course, I will die. If
that apostle is truly an apostle, he should mention the day I will die.
There is nothing in that law that prevents or
infringes the practice of religion. It seeks to ensure that those that
preach religion are qualified, trained and certified by their peers to
do it. And some sections of the media have made it as if the law was
drafted against Christianity. It is most irresponsible and I have
nothing to say except to leave the matter to God"he said
He maintained that the bill does not have any ulterior motive
“Honestly, we do not have any ulterior motive other than to put a
framework that will ensure Kaduna State citizens live in peace with
every one practising his religion, but disallowing every Tom, Dick and
Harry coming to say he can preach.”he said!
