I think that it is because the configuration are direclty parsed from the config.json file without any adaptation to match the configuration structure in code. This led to undefined variables in the configuration and therefore we have pointers that point to nothing. When trying to manipulate these null pointers we then get the so-called error. I will submit a PR to fix it.
The error is here:

func LoadConfiguration(filename string) {
	once.Do(func() {
		file, err := os.Open(filename)
		if err != nil {
			log.Fatalf("Failed to open config file: %v", err)
		}
		defer file.Close()

		decoder := json.NewDecoder(file)
		err = decoder.Decode(&config) // config structure do not match config.json file structure
		fmt.Printf("&s", config.Broker)
		if err != nil {
			log.Fatalf("Failed to decode config file: %v", err)
		}
	})
}
