Apostle Johnson Suleman, Senior Pastor of Omega Fire Ministries, has blamed the current economic crisis on bad choices made during the 2023 election.
According to the Daily Post on Thursday, Suleman made this claim during the two-day “Recovery Conference 2025” in Bauchi State on Tuesday and Wednesday.
He met with Governor Bala Mohammed on a courtesy call at Government House before to the event.
Suleman praised Mohammed’s hospitality and leadership, called him “a man of honor,” and promised to keep praying for the state’s advancement. He was accompanied by senior pastors, including Dr. Kingsley Aigbe.
However, speaking with journalists at the Government House, Suleman didn’t mince words about the nation’s state, blaming Nigerians for their electoral 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,” Suleman declared.
He criticised Tinubu’s administration for poor policy decisions and the mismanagement of the country’s oil sector.
“The oil industry has been looted.” I don’t think Nigerians will be able to recover from the harm in the next ten to fifteen years. All we can do now is pray,” he bemoaned.
Before the 2027 elections, Suleman warned Nigerians to think carefully about their choices, saying, “If they’ve suffered enough by then, perhaps they’ll make better decisions.”
Mohammed echoed Suleman’s worries by criticizing Tinubu’s policies and cautioning that they could cause irreversible harm to the country.
“Tinubu’s policies are leading us down a path of destruction and perdition because they lack a clear vision. I therefore speak about tax reforms because I want reform that will affect the entire country, not because I don’t want reform.
I do want reform that will affect the entire country. Mohammed remarked, “I respect the president and have nothing against him.”
As long as the Federal Government’s policies “shortchange Nigerians,” the governor promised to keep criticizing them.
The governor insisted, “Nigerians deserve better, and I will not shy away from pointing out these shortcomings.”
