Rev. Dr. Soja Bewarangs Former COCIN President Brief Remark About the Exceptional Dr. Patrick Dakum Written In 2018

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me or seen in me - put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Philippians 46-9 NIV

I have heard about Dr. Patrick Dakum before meeting and working with him from 2000 to 2005 as Senior Pastor and he the secretary of the elders board of COCIN Headquarters Church. We kept a very close working relationship when I became COCIN Vice President 2005 - 2011 and COCIN President 2012 - 2013, Dr. Dakum has been my confidant. Thus, I know Dakum enough to write briefly about him.

Dr. Dakum is from a very disciplined family, I know his late father and his mother who is a lovely Christian lady, faithful member of COCIN Headquarters Church and COCIN Women Fellowship. Dr. Dakum loves his parents and family members. During these years of my close acquaintance with Dr. Dakum whom I call Likita there are certain key principles in scriptures that I observed are the foundation and the driving force in his Christian life and service to humanity.

In addition to the scripture quoted at the beginning of this brief remark, Dakum doesnt want to be seen as a failure in whatever he lays his hand to do, he believes in the scripture that says he who lays his hand to a plough and looks back is not fit for the job and while it has been said that one could be a jack of all trades and master of none. Dr. Dakum is the exception because he can be in Sundays School class teaching, preparing and teaching Bible Study class, attending Couples Fellowship, giving talks at PRTVC Radio Home Front program, and promptly at the Elders Council and still functions very well as Commissioner of Information, Husband and Father.

Dr. Dakum, like Daniel in the Bible, doesnt want the business of the organization he is serving under to suffer any loss, be it secular, religious, or private sector. Thus, the success leadership story in Daniel 61-5 keeps Dr. Dakum in focus so he works diligently to make sure that the kings business shouldnt suffer loss. This is so because Dr. Dakum as in Daniel 63 has an excellent spirit of God in him. He believes in himself and works with absolute confidence.

Two incidences in the life of Dakum makes him stand tall and thus gain my absolute respect for him as a child of God. How he stood in faith as Job when their son Daniel died. As his Reverend, I didnt know how to handle and comfort him and Sarah at the news of the transition of their son. I was imagining how the funeral and internment of their lovely son would be. Dr. Dakum and Sarah, a great woman of faith stood on the path of faith and as Job would say The Lord gave and the Lord has taken glory be to His name.

Second, was when he was appointed Commissioner of Information Plateau State under the Governorship of Chief Joshua Dariye, people sought to find occasion against him and to see how he will balance his role as Secretary of COCIN Headquarters Church and his work as Commissioner of Information. Dakum, himself was at a fix as to whether he will relinquish his position as elder Headquarters Church or as Commissioner under Chief Joshua Dariye. I had to personally encourage him and insist that he keeps both. In the end, those who thought he would not be able to handle both could find no occasion nor fault in him for as much as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.

Dr. Dakum is a man of the people.

That he loves his parents and above all his wife and children as I have said before is not an exaggeration. He speaks very highly of his family, and of truth, they are a very united family both nuclear and extended. He is very jovial and his presence at any occasion lightens the atmosphere and creates lively conversations and interactions, cracks a lot of jokes, and can hold both small and large groups happy for a very long time.

Mercy my wife recalls an occasion when Dakum organized a birthday party for his wife Sarah, and what he gave Sarah as a birthday gift was Gwete. In the words of Mercy Dr. Dakum is an exceptional husband and father, humble, and doesnt associate only with people of his level but stoops to relate with those of lower cadre.

He is very humble and concerned about the progress of others, especially the youth. He has given employment to many irrespective of tribe, religion and he is an excellent communicator.

Above all, he loves God, His Word, and His church.

Because he is young, full of ideas, diligent, and works within the scheduled time given to him, he is always admired by the church and members will always vote to nominate him for any position in the church. On one occasion I had to ask him to drop some of his church responsibilities in order to avoid burnout one day.

He is visionary and often sees the light at the end of the tunnel. He is an excellent planner and an achiever. He has an admirable personality with immense intellectual pursuit. He has deep courage with deep Christian conviction as a result Dr. Dakum radiates desirable cordiality with uncompromising commitment to truth, fairness, and justice. He is a man of integrity who walks his talk.

He places highest premium on Christian service-driven activities and persuasive leadership which not only guides but aims at molding the younger ones to engage in gainful ventures to improve their livelihood. He has mentored so many within and outside the church. He is an encourager per excellence. The respect he widely earns within Nigeria and outside the country is thus rightly earned and well deserved.

My two years as COCIN President couldnt have been eventful without the high level of commitment of Dr. Patrick Dakum and others. His ideas along with that of Professor Onazi, Bogoro, and under the chairmanship of Air Marshal Wuyep were instrumental to the speedy progress of the Karl Kumm University and COCIN Mission to the Nations. The Documentary they produced using one of his brothers who is a photographer was very timely and educative to raising funds for continued work on the Karl Kumm University and COCIN Mission to the Nations.

Dr. Dakum is an indispensable asset in the church, the COCIN Daily work with Christ couldnt have been readily available without the dedicative role of Dr. Dakum. He is a preacher, a teacher, counsellor, and peace lover. He is very generous and always willing to go the extra mile to do that which will please God and his fellow men.

Any person who interacts with Dr. Dakum will certainly say blessed is the womb that bare him and parents and home that nurtured him.
