The General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministries, Apostle Johnson Suleman has said that he bought a jet during the COVID-19 pandemic and he was also praying for deadly virus not to end.
In the video which has gone viral on social media, Suleman mentions that his family was basking in money to the extent his wife wondered if life can “be this sweet?”.
Their so called enjoyment apparently spilled over to the public and others began to question his source of money, according to the 49-year-old televangelist who has been recently accused of having involved himself with another woman, but only if critics had known Suleman had a spiritual printing machine that mints cash. He calls it speaking in tongues.
He said;
“In COVID-19 [lockdown] I bought a jet, in COVID,” Suleman stressed, revealing that it was “the third one”. “I have three.”
The Apostle said in the video said that “I was praying for COVID-19 not to end because I was resting while people were complaining”.
“My wife asked: ‘Can life be this sweet?’, he recalled, adding the popular line often heard in most Pentecostal churches: “Am I talking to somebody here?”
“No stress,” he continued. “I read on the internet – somebody sent it to me – that there’s a rumour going around that I have a machine that prints money. I like that rumour. They say, ‘he should be investigated. He has a machine that prints money’. Somebody asked if it’s true and I said ‘it is true’. They said, ‘It’s risky o’. I said ‘I didn’t know it’s risky because I already bought the machine’. When you speak in tongues, you’re printing money.”
So many have expressed concern over his prayer point in the heart of the coronavirus pandemic when many were locked indoors with hundreds of lives lost in Nigeria – and hundreds of thousands elsewhere – while other lives, especially those of health workers, were laid on the line.
Apostle Suleman says he bought his third jet during COVID, and prays the pandemic doesn’t end. The charlatanry Nigerians call “Christianity” has effectively reduced the national IQ of Nigeria by many points. It will take trauma and reorientation to put Nigeria on the right path. pic.twitter.com/3Aidlk0QVM

@IfeanyiSalgado This Apostle Suleman abi wetin ihn dey call himself na wah oo. U’re confidently bragging about having 3 private jets and how u bought de 3rd one during Covid-19 pandemic, even dey pray make pandemic no end and de members are there shouting and celebrating. Receive sense
@Nrs_Idreeserh Who says Apostle Suleman shouldnt enjoy and chop life? You guys should free him, the only people who should think twice about him are his members who during the pandemic had nothing to cater for their family, while they keep throwing out money to him as offerings.
@Hankvalj Apostle Suleman has never trended for a good reason b4. It’s always from 1 controversy to the other. Covid-19 brought the entire world to it kneels, people dying everyday became norm while a pastor was somewhere praying for it not to go while he buys himself a 3rd private jet
@simplyelisha Apostle Suleman is not God, he’s not the scripture. Because he says something wrong, you’re going aha!, Christianity is a fraud. Everything in our present world is messed up, humans misuse everything, including God’s word, our government misuses power everyday. There’s no excuse.
