edition of his ministry’s life-changing crusade tagged ‘Help From Above’, which holds between Tuesday, 20th and Wednesday 21st June, 2017.
Leader of the delegation and Rep., John Richard C. King said the
honour, which is the highest given to non-residents of South Carolina
was sequel to approval of the House of Representatives of the State in
recognition of Apostle Suleman’s contribution to humanity.
“Apostle Suleman won this highest honor not only because he
is noted as a great social worker with outstanding performances in
outreach programmes but also his passion for giving without borders”
“Apostle Suleman is so privileged, because there are a lot of
people out there who are equally blessed if not more but are not willing
to do,” noted a member of the award committee.
Apostle Suleman, at the ceremony, dedicated the award to God, his
better half and partner, Dr. Lizzy Johnson Suleman as well as members of
the Omega Fire Ministries, worldwide.
A letter exclusively obtained by Vanguard, dated June 8, 2017,
conveying the approval of the House and signed by Richard C. King,
Chairman South Carolina Legislators Black Caucus, also indicated that

Hill.

you the Honorary Citizenship of South Carolina for being an accomplished
humanitarian. This is the highest honour given to non residents of the
State of South Carolina.
“We look forward to hosting you at the South Carolina State
Capitol and exploring future partnerships with you and the State of
South Carolina.”
Apostle Suleman also had a meeting with senators representing the

to be led by Rep. John C. King who is representing South Carolina.

Suleman’s Communications Manager, Phrank Shaibu, in a reaction,
thanked the government and people of the State of South Carolina for
finding Apostle Suleman worthy of such a high honour, noting that it is

Omega Fire Ministries has taken to the United States and other parts of

and compassion which the servant of God has taken to the United States
of America and other parts of the world has been widely accepted and
bearing fruits. This honour by the State of South Carolina bears
