In a recent media chat with select journalists in Lagos, the elder statesman said he took the decision to speak out publicly against the backdrop of the preacher's persistent and unrelenting criticism of the Buhari-led APC government.

While acknowledging and openly confessing his passionate love for Apostle Suleman, Honourable Sule, however, advised the preacher to concentrate more on his Apostolic calling rather than dabbling into politics.

He stated that he would not condone anyone who undermines the anti corruption crusade of President Muhammadu Buhari.

His words: “This is a man I love, respect and hold in high esteem for being a person of integrity over the years. Each time I hear people criticize my party, the (APC), my heart bleeds.

“Apostle Johnson Suleman who's my biological son and a renowned preacher of the gospel, is seemingly becoming a consistent critic of the ruling party lately. And I am seriously concerned about it as numerous well wishers are now urging me to call my son to order.

“I hereby speak out to let Nigerians know that I have warned my son (Apostle Johnson Suleman) to immediately leave politics to politicians and focus on his calling as a priest.

“Being a retired army officer, PMB is my commander in chief and the overall leader of my party, the APC. Hence, I will do anything in my capacity as a stake holder to support Mr. President for his noble repositioning of our dear country Nigeria.

“Consequently, anybody who is not supporting the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari is an enemy of the nation.”

Meanwhile, a pro-Buhari support group, Vote Guard and Awareness for Buhari, has urged President Buhari to intervene in the crisis rocking the APC across the nation.

Leader of the group, Alhaji Kelani Mohammed, at a press briefing in Kaduna, stressed that the crisis rocking the party in many states require the president’s personal intervention.

According to him, the APC needed a united front ahead of the 2019 general elections, even as he blamed some governors for igniting some of the crises by allegedly hijacking the party machinery in their states and scuttling internal democracy.
