Popular actress, Halima Abubakar has made more fresh claims on alleged affairs with Apostle Johnson Suleman in addition to the ones earlier alleged in 2022.
The preacher also has instituted N1bn lawsuit against the actress.
The actress had at the time – 2022, claimed that she had a relationship with the Auchi, Edo State based preacher, having been told he was a divorcee with three children.
Halima also alleged that the flashy man of God promised to marry her, even claiming that her current health challenges may not be unconnected with the preacher.
But reacting then, Apostle Suleman dragged Halima to court and dismissed the actress’ allegations as false, untrue, malicious, defamatory, baseless and a blackmail tool.
But in a latest Instagram live Video with Comedian Princess, Halima claimed that Suleman proposed to her more than seven times while the alleged romance lasted and even met her parents for the purpose of introduction.
“I did not know he was married. He told me he was separated. I used to beg him to go and settle with his wife but he said No. He proposed to me more than seven times. He involved my parents and met them for introduction,” she alleged.
She further narrated that she bled for four years and lost three pregnancies.
“The blood never stopped and he was still having sex with me like that. I didn’t read any meaning to it because I wasn’t a spiritual person and he used to have sex with me during my period so I thought it was normal.
”When I lost it, he was crying that I lost his child. You will think that it was real. I got pregnant three times, the last one left me bleeding, I had to take a tablet for it to stop.
”I was bleeding for four years. He was sleeping with me even while I was bleeding, that is the dangerous part of it and he was telling me he can’t sleep with anybody, it was okay because it is me.
”The whole thing caught me unaware, I was naive and was not a spiritual person. I did not know if it was love.
”These are some of the pictures Suleman and I snapped together at a hotel on Valentine’s Day. He even sent me some of his personal pictures. He was 41 years old at the time. I have a printout of the bank transactions between us,” she further claimed.
Reacting, the Pastor swiftly slammed Halima with N1bn Libel Suit and demanded that she be made to pay the sum of N20m for legal fees.
The senior pastor of Fire and Omega Ministries, through his legal representatives, Ephesus Lex Attorneys and Solicitors sued Ms Halima Abubakar before Justice. J. Enobie Obanor of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
He asked the court to direct her to publish a retraction of her defamatory statements posted on her Instagram handle and on several online blogs and newspapers.
He also asked the court to compel Halima to pay for the deletion of all links and reportage of the said defamatory comments on all platforms on the internet.
Suleman also demanded the sum of N1 billion as aggravated and exemplary damages for libel, an order of perpetual injunction restraining her from further publishing or causing to be published the said or similar defamatory statements.
He is also asking that Halima be made to pay the sum of N20 million for legal fees.
