• Apostle Johnson Suleman publicly called out clerics who boast of making multiple trips to heaven, sparking fierce reactions online
• The firebrand preacher shared his stance in a video posted on Sunday, October 18, 2026, without naming the clerics directly
• His comments reignited memories of the earlier controversy between Apostle Arome and Verydarkman over similar claims

Apostle Johnson Suleman has stirred up the Nigerian Christian space after a video of him mocking clerics who claim to have visited heaven went viral on Sunday, October 18, 2026.

In the clip, the outspoken cleric did not call out anyone by name, but his words landed like a thunderclap.

He questioned the credibility of preachers who routinely announce trips to the afterlife, asking pointedly: "Which heaven did you go to?"

Suleman mocked what he described as the audacity of those who say things like "the first time I was taken to heaven this year," suggesting such claims have become a recurring and embarrassing trend among Nigerian clergy. He did not hold back, saying: "Hey, these people are bold, the way they lie."

Apostle Johnson Suleman's claims about his power

While dismissing the heaven-visiting narratives of others, Suleman used the moment to speak about his own spiritual experiences, particularly around a 40-day fast he once observed. He claimed that after completing the fast, the spiritual energy radiating from him was so intense that even those closest to him could not stand in his presence.

According to him, his sister collapsed trying to hug him, the gatekeeper who opened the door for him fell to the ground, and his driver could not move the car after he got in.

He also claimed that when he walked into a prayer gathering without an announcement, everyone in the room began shaking uncontrollably.

"I didn't send it. I was just quiet," he said.
