The General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide, Apostle Johnson Suleman has reacted to the death sentence handed down to a 22-year-old man by a Kano Upper Shari’a Court on Monday for blaspheming Prophet Muhammad.
Suleman via his Twitter page on Tuesday said Saudi Arabia will be shocked at the development.
He stressed that he could not understand how death sentence would be awarded for blasphemy while Boko Haram fighters are pardoned.
He wrote, “A country that pardons terrorists wants to kill a man for blasphemy.I am sure even Saudi Arabia is shocked..the worst form of deception is self-deceit.”
