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 the state was looking forward to hosting Apostle Suleman at its Capitol Hill.

“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 State last night. The meeting had in attendance, the State’s lawmakers to be led by Rep. John C. King who is representing South Carolina. Others in the list include Rep. Harold Love, representing Tennessee, and Hon. Dr. Dee Dawkins-Haigler, representing Atlanta-Georgia.
 
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 also an indication of the acceptance of the message of salvation which Omega Fire Ministries has taken to the United States and other parts of the world.
