Buhari’s government is  clueless and useless – Apostle Johnson Suleman

Apostle Johnson Suleman of the Omega Fire Ministries, has branded the current government as clueless and useless for “calling known gunmen unknown.”

Suleman said this while condemning the attack on innocent worshippers at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Owo, Ondo State.

The clergyman sympathized with the families of those slain at the Owo massacre.

The church was attacked on Sunday by yet to be identified gunmen, leading to the killing of scores of worshippers.

In a tweet via his Twitter handle on Sunday evening, Suleman wrote: “It’s only a clueless and useless Government that calls known gunmen unknown.

“History will never forgive privileged men who do nothing in the face of tyranny.

“My heart and prayers are with the families of those slain at the ‘Owo massacre’. May their souls rest in peace.”

In the meantime, the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) has called for blood donation following the attack on a church in Owo, Ondo State, as it also asked the governments and security agencies to do better in the protection of lives and properties.

This call was contained in a statement issued by the NMA President Dr Uche Ojinmah late Sunday, hours after attackers killed scores of persons and injured many others at the St Francis Catholic Church in Owo, the headquarters of Owo Local Government Area.

“The NMA hereby calls for quick intervention by our Governments and security agencies to protect the lives and properties of Nigerians in every part of this nation,” Ojinmah said in the statement.

“The Nigerian Medical Association commiserates with the Government and good people of Ondo State over the loss of lives and prays for the quick recovery of those injured.

“We appeal to Nigerians in the affected area of Ondo State to kindly go to the hospitals where the injured are being treated to donate blood to save lives.”

He also called on doctors in the state and environs to mobilise themselves to take part in the treatment of those injured following the incident.

While lamenting the rising levels of insecurity in Nigeria, the NMA said the government must go beyond rhetorics and secure the country.

“The recurrent shedding of innocent blood in our dear country has been going on for far too long and it is the position of the Nigerian Medical Association that explanations, condemnations, and reassurances are no longer comforting,” it said.

“The NMA hereby calls for quick intervention by our Governments and security agencies to protect the lives and properties of Nigerians in every part of this nation.”

“NMA also calls for the release in good health of those abducted,” the NMA added as the body condoled with the families of the victims, the people, and the government of Ondo State over the attack.
