His stance has also gotten him into trouble with the Nigerian authorities after he revealed that certain individuals loyal to President Bola Tinubu have been warning and threatening him to desist from posting such videos.
The highly outspoken Plateau State cleric, Rev. Ezekiel Dachomo, has issued a fresh warning about threats to his life, alleging that Boko Haram militants have placed a bounty on his head. According to him, the group has promised a substantial reward to anyone who can track him down and assassinate him.
Rev. Dachomo who is the Regional Chairman of the Church of Christ in Nations (COCIN) in Barkin Ladi local government area of Plateau State, who made the claims in a video shared on social media platforms on Thursday, said the fresh threat is coming following his consistent anti-genocide stance and videos of Christian k!llings and mass burials he has been revealing.
His stance has also gotten him into trouble with the Nigerian authorities after he revealed that certain individuals loyal to President Bola Tinubu have been warning and threatening him to desist from posting such videos.
His Facebook and Instagram accounts have also been deleted. At the same time, Facebook Meta has also barred him from posting the videos with the excuse that they are capable of threatening Nigeria’s internal security.
In the video, Dachomo revealed he has credible inside information that the Islamist terrorist group is very serious about eliminating him for speaking out against their violent activities.
“Boko Haram, the Islamic terrorists, have placed a bounty on my head, and anyone who k!lls me first will be rewarded,” he stated in the video.
The clergy, however, insisted that despite the danger he faces as he tries to draw the attention of the world to Christian genocide in the state and the Middle Belt region, nothing will deter him from continuing with his advocacy despite the personal danger he faces for addressing the growing insecurity and persecution in the country.
“Before I embarked on this journey of exposing Christian genocide in Plateau and in Nigeria, I knew my life would be in danger, but I do not fear de@th,” he stated.
“In fact, my de@th will be more dangerous to them than now that I am alive.
“This is not just about me; it is about every Nigerian who desires peace and safety. We need support to stand against this terrorism,” he emphasized.
