A Nigerian cleric, Reverend Ezekiel Dachomo, has expressed unwavering support for the United States’ intervention in the alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria’s Northern region.<\/p>\n

In an interview with News Central TV, Rev Dachomo accused the President Bola Tinubu-led Nigerian government and officials of complicity in the killings, saying, “The repentant Boko Haram members have been recruited into the Nigerian Army, Air Force and Police. That’s why Christians must have a say in politics.”<\/p>\n

He challenged claims that Muslims are also being killed, stating, “When they came shouting Allahu Akbar, they have beheaded a head of a Christian and they lick the blood. Muslims are claiming that they are killed, that we also kill them. Asked them where we kill them? Look at the recent killing, look at this child that was killed, and you are saying that it is not a genocide.”<\/p>\n

Dachomo expressed confidence in his sources, saying, “I have insiders who give me information. I’m over 100% in support of President Donald Trump’s intervention because the Nigerian government, their hands are tied.”<\/p>\n

He vowed to take the Nigerian government to the International Criminal Court (ICC) over the alleged killings, stating, “The world needs to know that what we are saying is not false. I will go to any length to prove that this government is lying. We are also planning to take Nigeria before the International Criminal Court and sue the Miyetti Allah association for their role in these atrocities”.<\/p>\n

Rev. Dachomo who is the regional chairman of the Church of Christ in Nations (COCIN) in Barkin Ladi local government area of Plateau State, said this in a message he posted on his social media platform.<\/p>\n

\u201cHundreds of lives have been lost in attacks on Plateau villages that were never documented, and many victims remain unaccounted for.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn March 7th, 2010, Dogo Nahawa, a Christian-dominated community in Jos South local government area of Plateau State, was attacked by Muslim-Hausa Fulani, where over 500 people were killed in one night.<\/p>\n

\u201cDue to my outcry, my own village has been attacked several times, and over 50 people have been slaughtered, including my family members and friends. My best friend\u2019s wife and five children were burned alive.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the Federal Government claimed there was no genocide, that statement has pushed me to intensify this work. CAN is also denying the genocide, so I\u2019m determined to prove them wrong.<\/p>\n

\u201cRight now, I\u2019m travelling around to document cases of Christian genocide because many of the affected villages were never recorded, even though there are graves. I have been moving from one grave site to another.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Jaruwa, worshippers were burnt alive during a church service. None survived because the terrorists surrounded the building, set it on fire with gas lamps, and trapped everyone inside.<\/p>\n

\u201cI intend to cover all areas where Christians have been attacked. I\u2019m going to Wurekum, Doruwa, Mangu, and Bokkos, all the places where Christian genocide has been reported. I\u2019ll compile all these incidents into a report and present it to the world to show that genocide is happening in Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
