Nollywood actress Halima Abubakar has extended a public apology to Apostle Johnson Suleman of Omega Fire Ministries, admitting to making false claims against the renowned clergyman. In a heartfelt letter sent to Suleman, Abubakar acknowledged the pain and distress her actions have caused, expressing her regret for tarnishing his reputation and that of his family.

The saga between Abubakar and Apostle Suleman began in 2022 when the actress, facing severe health issues, accused the pastor of wrongdoing via social media. The dispute led to a public outcry, with Abubakar’s family joining in the plea, urging Suleman to stay away. Amidst swirling rumors, many alleged that the actress was suffering from an autoimmune disease, which she later countered by sharing her medical reports.

In her letter, dated October 22, 2024, Abubakar sought to reconcile with Suleman, openly admitting that her accusations were unfounded and apologizing for the turmoil they caused within his family and ministry. She stated, “I admit that I made false allegations against you and deeply regret my actions, along with the harm caused to you, your wife, Dr. Lizzy Suleman, your family, and the leaders of Omega Fire Ministry.”

Recognizing the impact of her previous statements, Abubakar emphasized her remorse, acknowledging that her apology cannot undo the damage done but hoping that her contrition could begin to mend the strained relationship. “I humbly ask for forgiveness, recognizing that my apology cannot undo the harm, pain, and distress I caused. I ask you to find a place in your heart to forgive me,” her letter continued.

The actress’s apology has stirred responses from both fans and critics, many of whom have followed the highly publicized dispute. This chapter in Abubakar’s life has highlighted the immense pressures and scrutiny faced by public figures, especially when personal matters become entangled with social media.

The recent apology marks what many hope will be the end of a prolonged saga that has deeply affected both parties. Suleman has yet to release a formal response to the apology, but sources close to the clergyman indicate that he may address it in due time.
