‘Love Has Left The Church’ – Apostle Suleman Reveals Intimate Conversation With Sammie Okposo Before Singer’s Death
Apostle Johnson Suleiman, the founder and senior pastor of Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide, has revealed what he and gospel singer Sammie Okposo discussed before his demise.
Sammie Okposo died in the morning of Friday, November 25, 2022. He was 51.
Okposo, who was one of Nigeria’s most decorated gospel musicians, recently hit the headlines over an infidelity scandal.
The singer later tendered an apology but later deleted the message on Instagram.
Following the scandal, he took time off from ministration to retrace his step with God.
While paying tribute to the singer, Apostle Suleman, a televangelist, slammed those he said were posting pictures after Okposo’s death but never reached out to him in his trying times.
“Now they post his pictures…but never reached out in his trying times. He told me what pastors did to him, and we both wept,” the controversial cleric wrote.

Love has left the church..
We have more ‘lawyers’ who are ready to judge than intercessors ready to restore..
Rest in power my brother..

“Rest in power, my brother.. You conquered!”
His tweet has since garnered reactions from tweeps, with some blaming the religious body for being judgmental.
We have more lawyers who are ready to judge than intercessors ready to restore. That is the summary of this matter! Rest well Sammie Okposo. We will meet again to part no more.

Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.

Until our pastors realised that they can't be always right, and that they are also humans who are subjective to errors, we aren't going anywhere…
Well said my brother…— Taiwo (@DaSteve001) November 26, 2022

God's servants must learn self-control and self-discipline. Whatsoever happened between Sam and anyone should not be a discussion for now. Maturity demands that we just pray for his family and everyone he has left for now.

All the positive comments they are supposed to write when he was alive so as to serve as a source of encouragement to him they didn't write it, majority of them was mute now they are all writing positive things about him when he's already gone…for who to see, his grave or what!

This is the major reasons I don't go to church anymore, instead of worshippers in church we have gossipers and Judges. People forgot that Jesus came for the sinners not the righteous.
