The video that is currently trending online had Pastor Suleman revealing to church members how someone called him and told him about a plan by some Fulani herdsmen to attack him either on the road or in his church.
Though it is not immediately known when he was recorded giving the instruction, some reports claim it was during the service of Sunday, January 15th, 2017.
“Somebody called me and told me that there is a plan to send Fulani herdsmen after you and I said ok and the person said I should be careful and I said careful of what.
“He said the herdsmen are just going to run into the road like herdsmen and begin to cause confusion and while your security men clear them and you come out, they will open fire.
“I said okay. After about a week, he called me and said please, if you don’t do that, they might bring them to come around church premises. I said its okay. And I told my people, any Fulani herdsman you see around you, kill him.
“I have told them in the church here, that any Fulani herdsman that just entered by mistake, Kill him, Kill Him. Cut his head. If they are busy killing Christians and nothing is happening, we will kill them and nothing will happen,” he said in the video.
There had been continued attacks by suspected Fulani herdsmen in the southern part of Kaduna with the governor declaring curfew at intervals.
