Lies.... Killed Suspect Was Handed Alive To The Police - Apostle Johnson Suleman Tweet

Apostle Johnson Suleman, President of Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide, after the brutal attack on his convoy on Friday by gunmen, which left seven persons dead, has slammed the police for killing the arrested prime suspect involved in the vicious attack on his convoy.

Three policemen, two drivers and two others were killed in the onslaught which occurred along the Benin–Auchi Road, Edo State, around 5pm.

In a 42 seconds video trending online, revealing the corpse of the killed suspect in a vehicle; 

In the video clip,

The policeman said, “One of the kidnappers that was caught today (Friday) while the DPO, CSP Ayodele Sulaiman, led the operation along Iyewe-Auchi Road, and after a gun battle, this one (suspect) was gunned down while others escaped with bullet wounds. Bush combing is ongoing.”

Reacting to the video, Suleman, in a tweet, condemned the killing of the suspect who was handed over to the police alive, alleging that it was an attempt to cover up traces that could lead to those behind the attack.

The cleric’s tweet read, “Lies…there weren’t kidnappers… He was caught and handed over and the police killed him immediately. Why? Why killing him on the spot? Who is trying to cover up traces?”

Suleman’s lawyer, Samuel Amune, is calling for a thorough investigation into the case, while stressing that the suspect was handed over to the police alive. 

He said, “As I speak with you now, I am with Apostle Suleman, and I am examining the vehicle in his compound. One of the boys was caught yesterday by vigilantes and he was handed over alive to the Auchi Police Division.

“But ironically, we don’t know what happened and the next thing we heard was that the police have shot him dead. I don’t know what the police would cook up later to be responsible for shooting him as the police station was not attacked by the youths.

“It was the youths in conjunction with the vigilante that arrested the boy and handed him over alive to the police. So, the only conspiracy theory that one can easily think of now is that was he (the policeman) acting under a superior order to have done what he has done?
