In an interview with a British journalist, the clergyman accused the Nigerian government of paying no attention to the k!llings of Christians in the country.
Rev. Ezekiel Dachomo, the prominent Plateau State cleric, has stated that he has overseen more than 70 mass burials following alleged attacks on Nigerian Christians by Islamic extremists.
In an interview with a British journalist, the clergyman accused the Nigerian government of paying no attention to the k!llings of Christians in the country.
He said, “I have performed several genocide burials, more than 70 times. Some of the graves are five hundred and one people k!lled in just one night.
“The Nigerian government downplayed that one because the Islamic are controlling the government.”
Dachomo alleged that the Boko Haram terrorist group was established by some government officials to remove former President Goodluck Jonathan.
According to him, the move was intended to drive Christians from power and install a Muslim counterpart.
“The background of the initial fact-finding is that many high-ranking government officials created Boko Haram to remove Goodluck Jonathan, who is a Christian.
“They caused riots in every village, and the people ran away; they were relocated. Their target is to k!ll the Christians because Goodluck is a Christian. That’s why Goodluck said ‘my blood is not worth it’,” he added.
