TRUTH EXPOSED? Center For Justice Drops Bombshell, Reveals How Zulum Excluded Christians From N3billion Govt Palliative; See Details
Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum, faces accusations from the Center for Justice on Religious and Ethnicity in Nigeria (CJREN) of deliberately excluding Christians from benefiting from Federal Government palliatives in the state.
Reverend Kallamu Dikwa, the CJREN Director- General, claimed that Christians were consistently left out of assistance, including the N3 billion provided by President Bola Tinubu for those affected by Boko Haram attacks.
In a statement, Reverend Dikwa expressed concern about the exclusion of Christians from federal aid, citing instances like President Tinubu’ s recent donation where Christians allegedly were not included in data capturing. He highlighted the situation of the Christian community in Gwoza Local Government Area, emphasizing their continued presence in IDP camps compared to returning Muslims.
He said, ” Any assistance that came to the citizens of the state from the federal government, Christians in the state are always excluded, such as palliative. Last week, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu visited Maiduguri and gave N3 billion to help those whose family members were killed by Boko Haram insurgency and resurgence, still Christians were excluded from the data capturing. ”
Dikwa further mentioned the demolition of EYN- Church of the Brethren in Nigeria, Moduganari, Maiduguri, last year, attributing it to Governor Zulum’ s actions, which allegedly led to the killing of a pastor’ s son. The CJREN Director- General explicitly pointed out Governor Zulum as a potential source of peace breaches in Borno state.
