The
Festus Keyamo Chambers on Friday said it has pictures of Apostle
Johnson Suleiman, founder of the Omega Fire Ministry exposing his
private part to Miss Stephanie Otobo on Skype.Reacting to Suleiman’s mandate on Festus Keyamo to tender an apology
and pay him N1 billion for scandalizing his personality, the Keyamo
Chambers warned Suleiman to leave their boss out of the picture and
punctured any form of apology for the preacher.A statement issued by the Festus Keyamo Chambers on Friday and signed
by Uchenna Moneke and Oluwafemi Olabisi, counsel to Otobo said Suleiman
should be asked “whether it is the Hausa/Fulani herdsmen that told him
to be exposing his private part to Miss Stephanie on Skype; which
pictures are in our custody and whether it is the Hausa/Fulani herdsmen
that instructed him to be paying millions into the account of our client
whom he calls a “stripper” all the way in Canada.”The statement added that Suleiman should be also be asked whether it
was his special calling as a so-called “man of God” to be paying
millions to strippers and prostitutes to leave their trade, when there
were poor women and widows within his congregation in Nigeria that
needed help badly.The chamber further said Suleiman should be asked “whether it is the
Hausa/Fulani herdsmen that instructed him to be exchanging amorous text
messages with a girl he calls “a stripper”. These text messages would
all be investigated and revealed when full criminal investigations
commence and whether it is the Hausa/Fulani herdsmen that instructed him
to be having Skype conversations with Miss Stephanie Otobo and to be
requesting her to open her bare breasts to him.”“We make bold to say that when criminal investigations commence, all
these text messages and pictures would be subjected to serious forensic
analysis, and the truth would be established. The hotels they slept in
and the evidence of their meetings in and out of this country would be
revealed. The pitiable excuse of “photo-shop” has become a convenient
escape route for all culprits caught on tape these days,’ the statement
added.The chamber added that Keyamo was not the problem of the ‘Apostle,”
but that his problem was the little girl whom “he thought he could
easily take advantage of and destroy her life. Somehow, she has found
the strength and the voice to fight back and this is where we are now.
Other unfortunate victims of this same self-proclaimed “Man of God” are
also in touch with us now and are also itching to tell their story, with
proofs.”However, the chamber said Keyamo was not even personally involved in
the matter and had no personal interest, adding that upon accepting the
brief of Miss Otobo at the Lagos office, Mr. Keyamo instructed three of
the lawyers in Lagos to handle the brief professionally.“Apart from an informal and friendly phone conversation Mr. Festus
Keyamo had with a reporter in Punch Newspapers and one other blog about
this matter, Mr. Keyamo has never personally signed or issued any letter
or press release on this issue. The lawyers in the Lagos office are
working on this. So, it baffles us that Apostle Suleiman and his aides
have decided to drag Mr. Keyamo personally into this issue. Mr. Keyamo
never owed Apostle Suleiman any professional duty and so was under no
legal restriction to accept a brief against him.“Secondly, all the allegations of some imaginary grand conspiracy
being perpetrated against Apostle Suleiman are not only pathetic, but
are ludicrous and a nonsensical smokescreen,’ the statement said.
