'Benue Governor Warned Me Not To Visit His State; In Edo, There Was A Shootout During My Visit,' Peter Obi Reports Political Persecution Against Him By Tinubu-Backed APC Actors To International Community https://t.co/RPJQU7E4Fj
To the world
My name is Reverend Ezekiel Dachomo and today I speak not with hatred but with a heart full of pain and faith
A few days ago Fulani herdsmen sent a threatening letter to me and to members of my church
The letter was written in both Hausa and English and its message was terrifying
They vowed to attack me and kill me soon just as they killed nine of my relatives
Copies of these threatening letters have already been handed over to the security operatives
Many people have asked me if I am afraid
My answer is no
I am not afraid because my life is in the hands of Almighty God
The Bible says in Psalm 118:6
The Lord is on my side I will not fear What can man do unto me
I know what it means to bury those I love
I know what it means to wipe the tears of children who watched their parents murdered
I know what it means to stand before grieving families whose only crime was refusing to deny Jesus Christ
Now they say I will be next
But I ask the world
What is my crime
Is my crime that I speak for widows who have no voice
Is my crime that I cry for orphaned children whose parents were murdered
Is my crime that I tell the stories of persecuted Christians in Nigeria so the world will not forget them
Is my crime that I preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and refuse to remain silent while innocent people are killed
If that is my crime then I will continue until my last breath
Jesus Himself warned us in John 15:20
If they persecuted Me they will also persecute you
I did not choose this path because it is safe
I chose it because truth must never bow before terror
They may threaten my life but they cannot silence the truth
They may kill the messenger but they cannot kill the message
Romans 8:35 says
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ Shall tribulation or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or peril or sword
The answer is no
Nothing can separate us from His love
Today I ask the world not to look away
Remember the widows
Remember the orphans
Remember the innocent Christians who continue to suffer simply because of their faith
Stand with us in prayer
Stand with us in truth
Stand with us in demanding justice for every innocent life
And if one day my voice is silenced let the world remember that I never carried a weapon
My only weapon was the truth
My only mission was to defend the persecuted
My only desire was to let the world know that the blood of innocent people cries out before God
As Paul declared in 2 Timothy 4:7
I have fought the good fight I have finished the race I have kept the faith
May God strengthen every persecuted believer
May He comfort every grieving family
And may the light of Christ shine even in the darkest valleys until justice and peace prevail
The children of Gonzaga Jesuit college Okija actually won a total of 25 Awards at the STEM Olympiad in Rome. They won 10 Gold, 3 Silver, 9 Bronzes, & (three Honorable mentions).
WOW! WOW! WOW! 🤩💪👏👏
"For seven years as the governor of Oyo State, we did not witness such an incident in my state. Then I declared to run for the presidency at 4PM, & by 9AM the following morning, schoolchildren were åbducted in Oyo State.”
When I say “the devilish APC is behind the terrorism in Nigeria,” I say it with a bold face.
I offer apologies to no one, because fear is a means of control. When people fear you, they will learn to respect you. The APC understands this dynamic. Is there a more effective way to control Nigerians than through the instruments of fear? The APC entered a pact with the devil.
THE YEAR WAS 2013. The conspirators & the absolutely insane decided it was okay to import a bunch of ragtag militias into my country. They did that to spite Jonathan, & have him removed!
They promised them lands, lands that don’t belong to them. The militia did their job quite all right. And when the time came to collect, they quickly realized that they were in fact, deceived
Now they have refused to leave, & Nigerians are paying the price. Why do you think the APC is so invested in their rehabilitation; very attached to it. They patch them & throw them back into Nigerian society. Many find their way back in Boko Haram, ISWAP, ISIS, Lakurawa, ANSARU, banditry. & other enclaves. Bandits & terrorists won’t leave Nigeria until APC is k!lled & buried!
Dear @mehdirhasan
This lying double-mouthed dishonest aide called Daniel Bwala that you publicly exposed his hypocrisy to the world a few months ago, now claims Al Jazeera “apologised” to him over your interview with him.
Please is this claim true?
And if true, what exactly did Al Jazeera apologise to him for?
Dear Nigerians,
Pls retweet until @mehdirhasan sees this and publicly responds to clear the air.
Meet Cynthia Onwuchuruba.
She teaches Mathematics to dropout children in Igbo and Pidgin English, ensuring that every child gets an education regardless of their background. She's a First Class Mathematics graduate of UNIZIK.
Let's retweet to celebrate her! ❤️
These Police Officers just parked me at Bolade, Oshodi, pointed guns at me, and forced me to transfer N100,000 them. When my bank app showed "exceeded transfer limit", they dragged me to a nearby POS to do it with my card.
They initially demanded 150k each.
They were 4 in number.
These are the names I could copy:
Francis Adekunle

Kuda
Friday Ikpe

Okay
This is the phone number of the notorious Officer Friday Ikpe 09136237110. I got it from his opay

Please my mutuals, if you see this on your TL, help repost or tag other relevant authorities until these criminals are apprehended.
I have just received the sad news of the death of one of our Obidient family members from Edo State, Comrade Benedict Inaede.
On behalf of my family and the Obidient Movement family, I sincerely condole with his immediate family and the entire Obidient family. His death is a painful and irreplaceable loss to us all.
May Almighty God, who has called him home, grant him eternal rest and grant his family and all of us the fortitude to bear this profound loss.
May we continue to remember his family in prayers for God Almighty's continued blessings. -PO
I wish to address the misguided and sponsored propaganda against the NDC from Dr. Umar Ardo; someone I call a friend and political ally for several years.
Dr. Ardo's consistent propaganda against the NDC, especially knowing my involvement as founder and national leader, is shocking and speaks to a lack of respect and loyalty to friendship.
The truth about NDC is in the public domain: The application commenced in 2017, when Dr. Ardo wasn't even dreaming of registering a political party. The process stalled because INEC, under Dr. Mahmood Yakubu, halted the registration of political parties.
However, last year when INEC lifted the embargo on registration of political parties, we revived our application and were subsequently listed alongside the 171 political associations. We waited to be invited by INEC to participate in the next stages of the registration process, only to receive a letter from INEC stating that our application was declined because our proposed logo, which is the two-finger sign, was similar to that of the APC broom.
This was shocking to us and we wrote back to INEC to restate that the logos were in no way similar. INEC persisted and even refused us the opportunity to change the logo, upon our offer to do so.
We wrote to INEC notifying them of our intention to sue and we went to court over this unlawful exclusion and upon this, the court enforced our rights to freedom of association, deemed us registered and directed INEC to register us, which they have implemented. INEC announced the NDC as one of the political parties in the country and issued a certificate of registration which we thank Prof. Amupitan, SAN, and the INEC, just as we thank the Judiciary.
INEC did not and has not appealed this judgement, and by the way, the period of appeal has elapsed and no one, except INEC, has the locus standi to appeal the judgement. The judgment has been enforced by INEC and there's nothing to appeal anymore. Moreover, if INEC who is the defendant has not appealed the judgement which has been accepted, implemented and obeyed, then no one can appeal against such.
Upon receiving the certificate, we gave the mandatory 21 days notice to INEC and they came about two weeks ago to observe our first NEC, which confirmed our officers and also took dates for our congresses and primaries, to be announced by the party soonest.
Dr. Ardo is aware of all of this because being a friend, we spoke, where he explained his frustrations stemming from INEC's refusal to register the ADA. I explained how I faced a similar delay but approached the court and advised him to do same, which he followed.
I am aware of the challenges he has in court as a result of disputes between him and his fellow promoters of the ADA and the NDC has nothing to do with this and, therefore, can not bear any responsibilities for his disappointment and frustration.
A few weeks ago, INEC also registered the NDP, which was excluded but went to court and got judgement. And again, INEC chairman and his team did not appeal against it but obeyed the order, registered the party and issued a certificate of registration.
The NDC is therefore not the only party that was registered as a result of a court order. It is curious that Dr. Adoh is his vituperations, said nothing about the NDP or other registered political parties.
We are happy with the NDC's registration and its formal presentation. Nigerians from all over the country and in the diaspora are registering massively and the party is gaining momentum with our officers working hard and promoting it. I am doing same, receiving top politicians from across the country and from all political parties.

Another slaughter of Christians in Nigeria by jihadists, this time on Palm Sunday.
Nigerian government officials have created an environment in which Christians are routinely persecuted and slaughtered, by imposing sharia law and looking the other way at violence. Those officials should know that the U.S. knows who they are, and has the tools to hold them accountable. https://t.co/pmK8E2j87r
