Popular Nigerian pastor, Apostle Johnson Suleman of Omega Fire Ministries International has been sued by his former pastor, Davids Mike for N2 billion for unlawfully interfering in his marriage.
For those who don’t know, Pastor Mike Davids had before now accused Apostle Suleman of sleeping with his wife, Pastor Faith Edeko who is now the head of the Abuja branch of the church.
Pastor Davids had also written a petition to the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu who had in turn ordered a probe into the matter.
However, Pastor Davids on Thursday, February 4th, 2021 filed an action in Pet/041/2021 before the court, accusing Apostle Suleman of destroying his home and preventing him from seeing his three children.
In the petition for decree of restitution of conjugal rights, Pastor Davids stated that he married his wife pursuant to Section 24 of the Marriage Act at St. Andrew’s Cathedral, Ekpoma, on December 6, 2008 by virtue of which only a High Court can annul.
Among other reliefs, Davids is seeking an order of perpetual injunction restraining Apostle Suleman, the church and their agents from gaining access or relating with his wife and three children.
Pastor Davids is also seeking, “an award of punitive and exemplary damages in the sum of N2billion against the defendants for unlawful interference with the claimant’s contract of marriage and the cost of N2m being the cost of prosecuting this action before this honourable court.”
