Popular Plateau-based pastor, Reverend Ezekiel Dachomo, has revealed alleged planned attacks on Christians during the upcoming Christmas celebrations.
Speaking at the Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Dachomo warned that the festive period could be marred by violence, urging Christians to take precautions.
Claims of Organized Threats
In a video shared by Pastor Paul Enenche on social media, Dachomo alleged that certain terrorist groups in northern Nigeria were mobilizing to disrupt Christmas festivities.
According to him, the groups are reportedly gathering resources, with women contributing N100,000 each and men contributing N200,000 each, allegedly to fund attacks.
Warning of Jihad and Disruption
Dachomo claimed that the terrorists had vowed to prevent Christians from enjoying the festive period.
He warned that preparations were underway, and Christians should remain vigilant during the season.
“We need prayers because in the Islamic world, especially the Fulani terrorists, they’re busy contributing money. Every woman will gather N100,000, and the men will gather to contribute N200,000 each. They have vowed that we’re not going to spend our Christmas this year. They say we’re going to run with rice at hand because they are ready for jihad. They are mobilising from the far North. And today, all we need is prayer.” he said.
Call for Prayers and Awareness
The cleric stressed the importance of prayer in the face of the alleged threats.
He urged church members and the wider Christian community to be spiritually prepared, emphasizing that prayer could provide protection amid possible attacks.
The video quickly went viral, sparking discussions online.
Many social media users shared their opinions on Dachomo’s claims, with some expressing concern while others urged caution in spreading unverified information.
Advice for Christians During the Festive Period
While the cleric’s statements have drawn attention, he also advised Christians to remain calm, be watchful, and stay united.
He encouraged communities to support each other and maintain faith, even in the face of uncertainty.
