Permit us to heal coronavirus patients, Apostle Suleman tells FG

Founder of Omega Fire Ministry, Apostle Johnson Suleman has said to the federal government to allow pastors heal coronavirus patients in Nigeria through prayers.
This is despite the fact that the World Health Organisation (WHO) had warned people against unscientific claims suggesting treatment for the respiratory disease caused by coronavirus.
Onyxnews Nigeria quotes Church Times saying the Apostle said there was need for the government to grant permission to those with divine healing gifts to visit isolation centres and cure people with the virus.
Suleman claimed such method is required if the country hopes to make meaningful progress in battling against the pandemic.
“Please (referring to the government) permit us to go and pray for COVID-19 patients. Allow us to go there (isolation centres), that is why there are men of God,” he said.
“If you are really anointed to pray for the sick, this is the time because what is holding the world is sickness. So, we’re begging the government to permit us into isolation centres, that is the only way we can reduce this nonsense because it will improve everyday.
“There are people with the gift of healing, God has gifted them to pray for the sick. It is not fake, gimmick or arranged. It is there in them. Permit us so that we can prove there are prophets in Nigeria.”
He added that such permission from the government would also reduce the attack many pastors have been getting on the social media about their perceived inability to do anything about the ravaging disease.
“Permit us so that the ridicule and all that can reduce. We’re not telling you we can heal all of them but by the time we are through with them, you’ll see significant difference. If they are 20 before, at least 18 will be cleared because that is what God can do,” he said.
Suleman further mentioned the list of religious leaders who believe the deadly pandemic virus could be handled through praying that is divine intervention.
So far, there are 1182 confirmed cases of the virus in Nigeria with 222 discharged and 35 deaths recorded.
