Ailing Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar, reacts as a famous clergyman, Apostle Suleman, pushes for a lawsuit if the actress does not desist from defaming his character.
It would be recalled that the actress had called out the General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministries International multiple times over a sex scandal and their affair.
This was followed up by a legal action threatened against Halima Abubakar by the legal team of Apostle Suleman.
The document reads thus;
“DEFAMATORY STATEMENTS CONCERNING APOSTLE JOHNSON SULEMAN: NOTICE TO CEASE AND DESIST
“Dear Ms Halima Abubakar, Our client is an Apostle and Senior Pastor of the Omega Fire and Miracle Ministry International, with branches in all states of Nigeria and several countries of the world.
By virtue of his Apostolic calling and reach he has several millions of followers who look up to him and his ministry for spiritual guidance and direction,” it reads.
“It is our brief that you caused to be published malicious, defamatory and demeaning statements about our client in several micro-blog sites, chiefly Gistlover, and your Instagram handle Halima Abubakar, which have wider reach within Nigeria and the world.
“These statements, made by you, knowing fully well that they are false, untrue, malicious, defamatory, baseless, and a tool of blackmail of our client, impugn the reputation of our client and reduce him in the eyes of responsible and right thinking members of the society.”
Responding to the threat of legal consequences, Halima Abubakar, agrees to meet Apostle Suleman in court.
In an Instagram story, she wrote, “JS Suree, see you at the court.”
