Why did you not stop them’ — VDM challenges Arome over Boko Haram claims

Social media activist, VeryDarkMan has challenged Apostle Arome over his claim that he spent four years and six months in Boko Haram territory and held open-air crusades there.

Arome ha, in a sermon, claimed that his team held crusades in a Boko Haram emclave every year, recalling how some members who travelled at night despite his instruction were captured by the insurgents.

Reacting to the claim, VDM questioned why Boko Haram attacks have continued if Arome had held crusades in areas controlled by the insurgents.

“You are going further to show that you are not a true man of God, and you are just a liar. How? If you have done crusade there with the power you claim you have, till tomorrow Boko Haram will still be attacking people, killing people. So why did you not stop them?” he said.

VDM also demanded evidence of the alleged crusades, saying he had never seen a flyer for an event held in a Boko Haram-controlled area.

“We have never, never seen a flyer of your crusade in Boko Haram territory,” he said.

He argued that holding a crusade in a relatively secure part of Borno was different from entering a Boko Haram-controlled “red zone.”

VDM challenged Arome to announce his next crusade in the red zone and make it available for public viewing.

“Your next crusade in the red zone, please make it known… Let’s all share the flyers. I would like to be present online… Let’s just stream live,” he said.

He further questioned why the military would still be needed to confront the insurgency if Arome possessed the level of spiritual power he claimed.
