The 30-year-old Nathaniel Samuel who was arrested on Sunday 1st February for attempting to bomb Winners Chapel in Kaduna has insisted that his name is Nathaniel Samuel. This is in contrary to reports making rounds that his name is Mohammed Nasiru Sani as being speculated in the social media.
Samuel said
this while being paraded before newsmen at the force headquarters in Kaduna on
Monday.
An argument
broke out on social media on Monday as several Nigerians claim Nathaniel Samuel
is a pseudo name and that no Christian would try to bomb a church.

Kayode had tweeted that anyone who agrees that the suspect’s name is Nathaniel
Samuel would need to have himself examined. The suspect, however, disclosed
that he was even meant to be a pastor as he has attended the Leadership and
Training Institute of the Church
“My name is
Nathaniel Samuel. In fact, I am supposed to be a pastor at the Living Faith
Church because I did the Word of Faith Bible Institute.”
He was asked
if his name is Mohammed, he responded;
“There is no way by accident that my name is Mohammed. My
name is Nathaniel”.
