BREAKING: Apostle Johnson Suleiman - Convoy Attacked By Gunmen, Allegedly Killing Three Police Orderlies, Four Other Persons.

Earlier today, Friday, gunmen opened fire on Apostle Johnson Suleman's convoy and allegedly killed seven persons including three policemen.

The incident occurred along the Benin Auchi Road, Edo State. Three of his police orderlies and four other yet-to-be-identified persons were allegedly killed.

 Suleman returned from a foreign trip and was heading to a destination in Edo State when the gunmen attacked his convoy around the Auchi area of the state.

Suleman’s lawyer, Samuel Amune, confirmed the attack.

He said, “He was returning from a journey and he had almost gotten 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 programme in Tanzania day before yesterday.

“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.”
