We Lost Him ππ
My heart is shattered beyond words
Our little brother, 13-year-old David Raymond, has gone home to be with the Lord after fighting for his life for 18 painful days
David was not a soldier
He was not a criminal
He was only a child whose only "offense" was being born into a Christian family in Plateau State
On that dark night in Kawel village, Bokkos LGA, terrorists stormed his home while the family slept
His father, Raymond Maichibi, stood between death and his son, hoping to save him with his own body, but he was shot and killed
His mother, Nanlop Raymond, hid inside the bedroom, praying for mercy, but the bullets found her too
David tried to escape, but an AK-47 bullet ripped through his back and stomach, leaving his intestines exposed
As doctors struggled day and night to save this innocent child, his parents were already lying in a mass grave alongside 20 other Christians murdered simply because of their faith
The family could not bring themselves to tell David that he was now an orphan
They hoped he would recover first
But today, that painful secret no longer matters
David has gone to join his father and mother in eternity
Before he died, his trembling voice still echoed from his hospital bed
"They came in the night... My father tried to protect me and they shot him... My mother was hiding when they shot her too... I ran and they shot me in the back..."
How many more children must die before the world listens
How many more Christian families must be erased before our tears are seen
The silence of the world has become another weapon against us
"Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." β Matthew 5:10
David's blood cries out from the ground
His story must not die with him
I plead with the Church around the world, do not stop praying for the persecuted Church in Nigeria
Remember us before the throne of God
Stand with us while there is still someone left to save
May the Lord comfort every grieving heart and may little David Raymond rest in the everlasting arms of Jesus until we meet again
Rest in peace, precious child
Your suffering is over
Your crown awaits you πππ
βSilence. The world is silent. While in Nigeria a massacre has taken place.
These are not numbers. These are entire families being exterminated.β
Powerful speech today from MEP @SardoneSilvia on the persecution of Christians in Nigeria π³π¬
βYouβre collecting money from people and giving them slips. But we've been here since. You refused to attend to us.

"I swear by Allah, since the time of Tafawa Balewa, no leader, not even during the era of military dictatorship and repression, ever has governed the way Tinubu has.
My name is Barr. Elzubair Abubakar.
Today, all of Nigeria's security agencies work for Tinubu rather than for Nigeria. If I were to insult Tinubu here right now, you would immediately see the DSS and the police. They wouldn't even stop to question you,they would simply say you had insulted the nation. Is Tinubu the nation?
As things stand, Tinubu has crippled INEC and has it firmly under his control. That is why opposition parties are constantly being plunged into one problem after another.
To make matters worse, the judges, who are supposed to stand for justice, have all been brought under his influence. So if you have a legal case, would you truly have the confidence to take it to court? How can the police treat opposition parties fairly?
How can INEC be expected to act impartially? Look at what happened to the PDP. The Supreme Court delivered a judgment against the Wike faction, yet INEC continues to recognize and work with that faction. Under such circumstances, how can Nigerians have confidence that INEC will conduct a free and fair election?"
