President Muhammadu Buhari’s Personal Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie on Tuesday insisted that the suspected suicide bomber caught in Living Faith Church, Nathaniel Samuel is not the only Christian terrorist in Nigeria.
Onochie stated that Samuel was a Christain Pastor planning to plant a bomb in Living Faith Church in Kaduna State before he was apprehended by security operatives.
The suspected suicide bomber who was caught on Sunday had admitted to being a Christian, adding that he attended the Living Faith’s Bible school in a bid to become a pastor.
However, former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode had insisted that the suspect was a Muslim and not a Christian.
But while being paraded before journalists at the Kaduna State Police Command yesterday, the suspected suicide bomber insisted that his name is Nathaniel and not Mohammed Nasiru Sani as being speculated.
However, Onochie in a statement she personally signed said the incident was part of a grand plot to divide Nigeria along North and Southern lines.
The presidential aide insisted that Samuel was part of a plot to turn Nigeria against Buhari and his ethnic group, the Fulanis.
She also maintained that the attempted suicide bombing of Bishop David Oydepo’s church was a plot to divide Christians and Muslims in Nigeria.
According to Onochie: “Nathaniel Samuel, a Pastor at the Living Faith Church, who planted the bomb in a Kaduna Church has now been islamised by the nation’s topmost drug addict, Femi Fani-Kayode.
“And as usual, his likes agree with him.
“Nathaniel is old enough to know his name. He didn’t just drop from the sky. People know him and his name.
“Let no one pretend to be shocked that a Christian and a Pastor was caught planting bombs in a church. This is not the first time. It’s part of the grand design to keep this country divided along north and south, Christian and muslim, and the rest of the country against President Buhari’s ethnic group, the Fulanis.”
The presidential aide also listed some alleged Christian terrorists caught by security operatives in time past who attempted to blow up some churches like the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Catholic Church, COCIN church.
