Sule’s father, Adewale Sule, heard the gunfire and emerged from the house just in time to see the suspect fire the last of the shots at his daughter.

‘I saw the guy shooting my daughter. He shot the last round, and I pursued him,’ said the father. ‘He ran back to his car.’

Najeet was pronounced dead about 30 minutes after she was rushed to Jefferson Torresdale Hospital.

Her mother, Tawakalitu Sule, said she last heard from Najeet less than two hours before the shooting when her daughter asked her when she would be home.

‘All of my children have been crying every day because of their big sister. They miss her. I miss my daughter,’ she said in a report by Daily Mail.

Najeet is survived by her parents and two sisters. The family are currently staying at an undisclosed location over unspecified concerns for their safety.

Sule and her family immigrated to Philadelphia from Nigeria in the early 2000s.

Sule had only recently earned a Master’s degree in public health from West Chester University and was pursuing a doctorate.

In 2019, she was crowned a second runner-up at the Miss Nigeria International pageant.

‘Queen Najibat was an amazing young lady whose presence at the Miss Nigerian beauty pageant left a great ripple that continues to resonate,’ pageant organizers wrote on Facebook. ‘She was a breath of fresh air and her presence added a distinct touch that made the event memorable. She carried herself with great dignity and grace and her strength of character and approachability made her such a joy to work with.’

Her Instagram page, which has more than 3,000 followers, features photos of the glamorous PhD student modelling a wide variety of fashionable outfits and accessories

By John Michael Ojo

The founder of Love Word Ministry popularly known as Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, has stated that his ministry parted ways with popular Nigerian gospel singer including multiple award-winning singer,Osinachi Kalu Okoro Egbu, professionally known as Sinach, when the later began to deviate from the purpose of God’s calling and the church principles.

Oyakhilome who referred to the music ministers as ‘professional’ singers said Sinach alongside her counterparts were only concerned about showing off their talents to the world instead of glorifying God.

He said they became entertainers milking churches, chasing after money while neglecting prayers  once they were done performing.

Oyakhilome who said he was once in support of their actions, said he tried to change the narrative as soon as he realized his misdeeds but being blinded by the popularity they have gained and the monies that was coming into their pockets, the singers became adamant and soon left  his church.

Oyakhilome who stated this in a now viral video however, prayed that the singers realize their mistakes and repent.

He said: “Why did this happen? The church was turning into a place of entertainment rather than a house of prayer where God’s word was truly celebrated. These singers were not winning souls; they led praise but left when it was time for prayers.

“The music in the church started to change—it became worldly. They performed for themselves, celebrated themselves instead of God, and even began charging fees for their singing.

“They became professionals who made money from the church, and many pastors did not realize that this was how the world was creeping into the church.

“Initially, I celebrated them, but when I made a shift toward a different direction, they refused to change with me. That’s when I had to let them go. God was speaking to me, showing me this was not the right path.

“I told them the Lord wanted us to do things the right way, but they had become too focused on their newfound popularity and financial gains.

“They didn’t want to follow me anymore, so they chose a different path. I hope they find their way back and repent because they are no longer worship leaders.”
