President of Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide, Apostle Johnson Suleman, has indicated interest in standing as surety for Convener of #RevolutionNow, Mr. Omoyele Sowore.
Sowore, a former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress in the February 2019 presidential election and founder of an online news agency Sahara Reporters, was arrested by the Department of Security Services on August 3, 2019 for alleged treason after calling for a protest tagged #RevolutionNow.
On October 4th, Justice Ijeaoma Ojukwu of the Federal Hight Court granted him bail to the tune of 100 million Naira with an addition 50 million Naira Security deposits and two sureties in like sum (Read more here). Sowore was unable to meet the condition.
On October 21st, the court adjusted the bail conditions with a reduction from N100 million to N50 million and removal of the N50 million security deposits. However, Sowore is still in custody because he hasn’t met the bail conditions.
Taking to his verified Twitter handle @APOSTLESULEMAN on Monday, Suleman expressed concerns that though Sowore had hurt many people in the past — including Suleman himself — he is of the opinion that Sowore should not be allowed to “rot where he is.”
“In a situation like this, what will Christ do?” Suleman asked; adding, “am ‘considering’ standing bail for him.”

Reacting the Apostle Suleman’s consideration, popular radio broadcaster and religious critic, Daddy Freeze, praised the man of God for rising up despite being a victim of Sowore’s attacks in the past.
