Christian Persecution in Nigeria Divides Pastors

Last October, the Rev. Ezekiel Dachomo, regional chairman of the Church of Christ in Nations denomination in Nigeria’s Plateau State, stood in front of a mass grave in Rachas, Nigeria, and begged those close to President Donald Trump to “please, tell Trump to save our lives in Nigeria!” Rev. Dachomo was burying his own congregants who, he claimed, had been murdered by members of the Fulani ethnic group, a majority Muslim group whose militant factions have menaced Nigeria’s Middle Belt for years.
