These are grave violations against human life,<br>human dignity, and the collective conscience of our nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To attack worshippers in God\u2019s house is not only a criminal act but<br>a desecration of the sacred. To abduct or harm schoolchildren,<br>symbols of our nation\u2019s future, is a cruelty that should alarm<br>every responsible leader. These repeated incidents expose the<br>deepening vulnerability of Nigerians and the worsening failure of<br>our security architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While government officials continue to argue that \u201cthere is no<br>Christian genocide in Nigeria\u201d<br>, the perpetrators themselves are<br>making a different and tragic statement through their deliberate<br>targeting of Christian communities. This violence rebukes every<br>attempt to defend the indefensible. Rather than expending<br>precious energy debating semantics, it is far more urgent and<br>morally responsible to deploy that energy toward defending the<br>lives of citizens, which remains the primary constitutional duty of<br>government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For decades, Christians, particularly in the northern parts of Nigeria,<br>have been repeatedly targeted, attacked, and killed. Yet our leaders<br>have not demonstrated by action that these lives matter. Instead,<br>the pursuit of power, political advantage, and personal interests<br>continues to overshadow the weightier responsibility of ensuring<br>safety, justice, and security for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Too much innocent blood has been shed in this land. Scripture<br>warns clearly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDo not pollute the land in which you live; for bloodshed pollutes<br>the land, and no atonement can be made for the land for blood that<br>is shed in it except by the blood of the one who shed it.<br>\u201d<br>\u2014 Numbers<br>35:33<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we fail to address these crimes against humanity with sincerity,<br>courage, and justice, this nation risks attracting divine judgment, not<br>only upon the perpetrators but also upon every enabler, excuser,<br>and silent observer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We call on the Federal Government, state authorities, security<br>agencies, and all stakeholders to rise to their responsibilities with<br>urgency, transparency, and integrity. The killing and bloodshed must<br>stop. The life of every Nigerian must be protected. Justice must<br>prevail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nigeria cannot continue on this path.<br>Innocent blood is crying.<br>History is watching.<br>Heaven is recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PST. ISAAC V.
