Rev. Ezekiel Dachomo, has again recounted his past life of crime and subsequent spiritual transformation, attributing his change to his Christian faith.
Dachomo made the disclosure during a religious gathering, where he shared his personal testimony of repentance and renewal.
“I was a notorious criminal in this village, a drug cartel in this village, a wanderer in this village. That is my testimony,” he said.
The pastor also claimed involvement in criminal activities in his earlier years.
“When I say 1980, it is our gang that robbed a bank, and the person that led that operation is my best friend,” he said.
He explained that his life took a new direction after he embrace Jesus during the robbery.
“When I submitted myself to Jesus, who is my Saviour, I allowed Him to control my life, and Jesus forgave my sin. I am a new person in Christ Jesus,” he said.
However, Dachomo has come under relentless attacks with many asking the authorities to investigate his confession and prosecuting him for his past criminality.
They accused him of infighting fire in the already existing crises between farmers and herders in the state especially when he was openly heard asking the youths to go to WAR.
