Mbaka alleges plot to cause rift with presidency

Fiery Enugu Catholic Priest, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, yesterday, alleged that some Nigerians were trying to cause disaffection between him and President Muhamadu Buhari.

He made the disclosure through his media aid, Maximus Ugwuoke in Enugu.

Mbaka said that some ‎persons were nose-diving in the affairs of the Adoration Ministry, which he superintends over, with a view to causing unnecessary rift between the ministry and the presidency.

Speaking against the background of his recent comments over Buhari’s illness, which he said was grossly misrepresented, the cleric said he would continue to pray and support the administration in the effort to enthrone lasting legacies for the country.

According to him: “While we enjoin all patriotic citizens of this country to continue to pray for the good of the nation and her leaders, we reiterate our call on the meddlesome interlopers, who busy themselves with arm-twisting issues arising from the ministry for whatever ends, to desist from their wild goose chase.

He urged them to “have a rethink and rather partake in the blessings imminent in spreading the good news of signs, wonders and miracles of God in the Ministry.”

Mbaka recalled that Nigerian doctors had expressed fears over the chances of the president recovering from his illness, stressing that contrary to earlier media reports that he made negative predictions concerning his ill health, he merely alluded to the reported claims by doctors.

The statement said, “Fr Mbaka referring to the said media report during his prayers for the sick in the ministry, prayed with the worshippers for Mr President’s healing and health, after which there were lots of testimonies from the sick that were healed of blindness, elephantiasis, deafness, cancer, tumor and all other diverse healings at the end of the prayer session,” he said

Recalling his statement, he said: “They say the sickness is E.N.T, when it affects the ear, it affects the nose and affects the neck. We pray for our president and any one that is suffering such a dangerous disease. We lift our healing hands for divine healing upon our president. Wherever he is, may he be healed in Jesus Name.

“The doctors in Nigeria are nursing fear that he may not survive but we have a healing God. His name is specialist in impossibilities.”

Mbaka counseled that Buhari required the support of every Nigerian to succeed, stressing that the attempt to pull him down was not in the best interest of the country, as he had come with vision and wisdom to serve.
