Apostle Johnson Suleman of Omega Fire Ministries has said the emergence of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar as the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential flagbearer was an indication that the Southern part of Nigeria are noisemakers.
The cleric stated this in reaction to the withdrawal of Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto from the presidential primary and declared support for Atiku, who eventually won the election.
Apostle Suleman, who said North will always rule the country, also noted that the Sokoto governor’s action showed that Northerners are loyal to themselves.

Addressing members of his church, he said: “You saw what played out yesterday in Abuja? Why do you think the North has been in office and power for many years? Even if the North is not in office, the North will be in power.
“If they are not in power, they will be in office. This is because the Southern region, especially South-South, are noisemakers. The North will allow you to finish making your noise then they will shock you. Atiku knew the Southerners were noisemakers, and he worked on it.
“They are 100% loyal to themselves; that is why Tambuwal could take such a decision. All my Northern friends have not spoken ill of me, but the Southerners are the ones mocking me.”
