Apostle Suleman seeks #JusticeForUwa

Uwa Uwa

Apostle Johnson Suleman of Omega Fire Ministries has promised to seek justice for Vera Uwaila Omozuwa; a 22-year-old 100-level student of the University of Benin, Edo State who was raped and brutally murdered.

The preacher could not understand how a killer would have the nerve to perpetrate such a heinous crime in the House of God.

In a Twitter post, the clergyman said he just got off the phone with the Edo State Governor and assured Nigerians that justice will be served.

"I just spoke with the governor..the death of vera uwaila won't be swept under the carpet..if someone could have the nerve to come kill a girl inside the church, then there would be consequences..if there are madmen, there are psychiatric doctors," he wrote.



Vera Uwaila was raped and killed inside a Redeemed Christian Church of God in Benin city. A situation that has led several women to speak up against rape and brutal crimes committed against women under this famous hashtag, #JusticeForUwa.
