Nigerian Christians, particularly those in Plateau State, have mobilized in fervent prayers for Rev. Ezekiel Dachomo, following an alarming warning from an ‘Anonymous Group’ that the pastor has been targeted for assassination. Rev. Dachomo, widely respected for his outspoken advocacy on behalf of Christians facing violence in the region, has reportedly drawn the attention of Islamic extremists and bandits. The threat is believed to be linked to his regular online videos highlighting attacks on Christians, which the group claims have influenced former US President Donald Trump’s warnings about potential intervention against terrorists in Nigeria. The Anonymous Group, a decentralized international collective known for “hacktivism,” posted on Facebook on Friday night, stating that extremists have allegedly issued orders to assassinate Dachomo within the next seven days. The group described the pastor as a significant obstacle to the militants’ activities, alleging that he has become a “...

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to address Nigeria’s worsening security situation with urgency, wisdom, and diplomatic tact, especially in light of recent threats of intervention reportedly made by former United States President Donald Trump.

Adeboye also urged the government to identify and expose the sponsors of terroris...

Many emphasised that faith should not be based on claims lacking theological or historical grounding. Kim has also attracted attention for his claim of having an IQ of 276 , which he says makes him the worl...
