Why Nigerians deserve their current situation — Apostle Suleman

The Senior Pastor of Omega Fire Ministries, Apostle Johnson Suleman, has linked Nigeria’s current economic situation to poor electoral decisions made by its citizens.

According to The Daily Post, he stated this while speaking during a visit to the Government House in Bauchi ahead of a two-day “Recovery Conference 2025.

However, speaking with journalists at the Government House while accompanied by Senior pastors, including Dr. Kingsley Aigbe, Suleman stressed that Nigerians are reaping the consequences of their voting choices.

“What Nigerians are going through is partly what they deserve. Before the election, we cried out, we screamed, we yelled. The man (President Bola Tinubu) who came into leadership had no manifesto—just a sense of entitlement with his ‘it’s my turn’ mantra,” he declared.

Suleman also expressed concerns over the state of the nation under Tinubu’s administration, particularly the policies and mismanagement of the oil sector.

“The oil sector has been plundered. In the next 10 to 15 years, I don’t think Nigerians will recover from the damage. Now, all we can do is pray,” he lamented.

Suleman urged Nigerians to reflect deeply on their choices ahead of the 2027 elections, adding, “If they’ve suffered enough by then, perhaps they’ll make better decisions.”

Meanwhile, Bauchi State Governor, Senator Bala Mohammed, also criticised the Federal Government’s policies, warning of their potential to harm the nation’s future.

“Tinubu’s policies don’t have a clear vision and are taking us to the road to perdition and destruction. That is why when I talk about tax reforms, it is not because I don’t want reform but because I want reform that will have a national impact,” Mohammed stated.

He clarified that his criticisms were not personal attacks on President Tinubu but were aimed at addressing policies that he believed were detrimental to the welfare of Nigerians.

“I don’t have anything against the president but respect. However, I will continue to point out the shortcomings of these policies as long as Nigerians are being short-changed,” the governor affirmed.

Both Suleman and Mohammed called for urgent reflections and actions to redirect the nation toward progress and stability.
