Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar, has recanted the allegations she and her family levelled against founder of Omega Fire Ministries, Apostle Johnson Suleman.
She apologized to Suleman via a letter in which she admitted spreading falsehood against the clergyman and causing him pain on social media.
The drama between Abubakar and Apostle Suleman started in 2022 after the thespian became bedridden following her encounter with the pastor.
While on her sick bed, her family took to the Internet and called out the clergyman, claiming he was responsible for her ailment and warned him to stay away from her.
But, many alleged that the actress was battling an autoimmune disease which she debunked by sharing her medical report, after Pastor Suleman had sued her for defamation.

However, making a U-turn via a letter sent to the clergyman, Halima Abubakar sought his forgiveness and admitted she defamed him.
She went on to express deep regrets for tarnishing his image and hoped her letter would repair the damage done to an extent.
She wrote: “I admit that I made false allegations against you and also regret my action and the damage I caused to you, your wife, Dr Lizzy Suleman, your family and the leaders of the Omega Fire Ministry.
“With this letter, I humbly ask for forgiveness, recognising that my apology cannot undo the harm, pain and distress I caused and I ask you to find a place in your heart to forgive me as I was not thinking right then.
“I’m truly sorry for all the hurts and distress I caused you, your family and ministry.”
