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
