23rd April 2025. My dear Caleb, My aide just briefed me about your response to me and though I did not have time to read it he briefed me about its contents. I am glad you read my short note to you about the Israeli Ambassador’s visit to your state & I trust that you got my point. I kept it simple, short, polite & sharp because I really didn’t want to hurt your feelings. However given the fact that you have evidently not learnt your lesson, I will dedicate more time to you in the future, write a full essay on the topic and endeavour to be much more clinical. Your people in Plateau state are being slaughtered & you are busy writing feeble rejoinders to me? Don’t you think you have bigger problems than that? Let me reiterate my position: you are a weak & cowardly man who does not know his left from his right. When Sen. Lalong was Governor of your state the killings were minimised because he understood the nature of the terrorists & he knew what to do & what not to do. He also recognised the danger in associating with foreigners that are more interested in dividing us than uniting us. Since you got there all you have done is whine, blame everyone else for your woeful failure, welcome the enemies of humanity that are killing women & children in Gaza to your table & behave as if you are infallible. I have now come to the firm conclusion that your are not only incorrigible but also beyond redemption. This saddens me & frankly I pity you. Outside of that it is my view that you are a disgrace to Plateau state, to Christianity & to Nigeria. I suggest you focus on bringing peace to your state rather than worry about me. I will always pray & support those that are ready to confront & kill terrorists but I cannot abide those that treat them with kid gloves, cry like babies before them & quiver in their prescence. Kindly stand up like a man, do something about the terrorists that have plagued your state & stop inviting the representatives of evil foreign Governments with blood on their hands to your domain. Is that too much to ask? As I wrote in my note you inflicted a spiritual wound on yourself by welcoming genocidal maniacs & child-killers to your table. Regardless of your protests & lamentations I stand by my words. Those who kill Palestinians & occupy their land illegally can hardly be trusted to bring peace to the land of others. That was my point which you clearly chose to ignore or did not have the mental virility & intellectual fortitude to comprehend. Now you have made the whole thing worse by knuckling down & attempting to rationalise your shameful behaviour. One day you will discover that I am not an enemy but a friend because only friends tell you the truth no matter how bitter. Let us hope that by that time it will not be too late. Take the money of the Israelis in the name of them helping you with agriculture & irrigation but never trust them & know that such support from such evil men comes at a high price & with consequences. Those that sell their soul to satan never win & always end badly. If you doubt it I recommend that you read Christopher Marlow’s great literary work titled Dr. Faustus. You have much to learn from it. I believe the people of Plateau state deserve far better and as a Nigerian and particularly as one who, despite the attendant risks and relentless persecution that it attracted, has spoken up for your people on numerous occassions over the last 15 years when they were under siege, I believe I have every right to be concerned and to express my views. Despite all my prayer is that God opens your eyes sooner than later because I do not wish you ill. As you know I love Plateau state & it’s people & what is going on there breaks my heart. May the Lord open your eyes, may He deliver, lead & guide you, may He bring you back to your senses and to an expected end and may He restore peace to Plateau state. This is and will always be my prayer despite your obvious weaknesses. I wish you well. Shalom. (FFK)
