Stephanie Otobo to Apostle Suleman: Politicians paid me to defame you
A video has emerged online in which Stephanie Otobo recanted her accusation against Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide congregation pastor, Apostle Johnson Suleman.
Otobo had last year, accused the pastor of impregnating and breaching a promise to marry her. She said she was paid to defame the pastor.
The Canada-based Nigerian singer made the u-turn when she reportedly addressed the Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide congregation (Mr. Suleman’s church) on Saturday.
According to her, some “very strong and powerful politicians and pastors” deceived her.
The video of her confession was posted on the church’s official Facebook page on Saturday morning.
She said, “The only offence he committed was to have intervened in the numerous heinous crimes against the Church of Christ around the Nation and became a Voice for the Gospel.”
Otobo’s turnaround follows the defamation suit filed by a cleric, against her in November 2017, at the Lagos State High Court in Ikeja.
The hearing was stalled following the latter’s absence in court.
The presiding judge, Adedayo Oyebanji, adjourned the matter until February 7.
