The Head of The Christian Association of Nigeria South-South division Archbishop Goddowell Avwomakpa’ spoke after his son Tareri Avwomakpa was arrested, charged before a magistrate and granted bail for drumming up support for Omega Fire Ministry’s General Overseer during his recent spate with the Department of State Security DSS. He is alleged to have sent a WhatsApp message to his contact urging them to accompany Apostle Suleiman as he honours the DSS’ call.
Avwomakpa said, “The man of God who is my son is here in their (DSS) custody, I can’t deny him.
“Two things that you must know is that, I asked for him, they brought him. I asked him how he is being treated, he told me everything in their presence. I prayed for him.
“If by the end of today he is not released, I will mobilise against the DSS.”
Tareri spent three days in the Asaba office of the DSS before his dad was able to secure his release in company of several clergy men.
The Message Reads:
“URGENT!!! The DSS has invited Apostle Johnson Suleman to appear b/4 (sic) the Abuja office for interrogation by 10 am on Monday 30/1/17. Let every Christian come out in a procession to accompany Apostle Suleman to the DSS office. He spoke for us all.
“We stand against the shameful silence of Nigerian government over the killing of Christians in Nigeria; intimidation/harassment of the church with state security agencies and the Islamic agenda of this regime. United we stand & together we will win this battle. Christians awake!!!!! Pls forward this invitation to every contact and God will fight your battles in Jesus name.”
