The bible says that what shall it profit a man to gain the whole world and loose his or her soul in heaven, this is the message of all men of God including Fr. Mbaka. I could remember those days, when men of God were the mouthpiece of God, they were not materialistic, they preach, condemn evil without any fear of persecution. But these days, men of God have combined evangelism with politics.
Rev father Mbaka was my role model, I so much love him because of his charisma. Those days when Father Mbaka used to be Father Mbaka, he hardly combine politics with evangelism. He fought ex-governor chima and so many of them, he inspired me so much. He was full of Holy Spirit, when he enters on the pulpit, one will see a man filled with the Holy Spirit. But now things has changed, how did it happen is what I'm trying to figure out. How come father Mbaka suddenly became controversial? Turning his eyes on evil in other to please Buhari.
How did Buhari managed to influence father Mbaka of all people? I know by now that Fr Mbaka is regretting being used by Buhari and APC. Fr Mbaka who has all the power and honor in the Igbo land has made himself a laughing subject, and because of what he has done in secrecy, he is now battling with his conscious. He went to one of the newspapers punch to vent his anger and disappointment by Buhari led administration. Which he said " Enugu Catholic priest, and Spiritual Director of the Adoration Ministry, Enugu State, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has warned President Muhammadu Buhari that Nigerians will not vote for him in 2019 if he does not address the high level of hunger and suffering in the country". Does he thinks that Buhari is interested in 2019 election?
"Mbaka has been one of Buhari’s most vocal supporters since he asked Nigerians to reject the incumbent, Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples Democratic Party during the 2015 presidential pol and predicted Buhari’s victory. But, in a surprising turn of events, Mbaka attacked Buhari in a recent message, details of which were obtained by journalists on Tuesday night. In the message, Mbaka noted that there was too much suffering in the country, and faulted the President for not appointing the right people. He also accused the President of listening to the wrong advice. The message partly read, “The issue is that Mbaka is speaking as the Spirit leads him – there is hunger everywhere. My job is to tell leaders the truth, the landlords are crying, the tenants are lamenting, sellers are crying, buyers are lamenting – there is hunger on the streets. “I can’t keep quiet when things are going wrong. “I am telling the President to look around him and know those who are advising him rightly and those who are telling him that there is no trouble."
“The President should know that there is trouble – if things continue like this, in the next election, nobody will vote for him. “Whether they like it or not, I am speaking the raw truth. “If the President should have somebody like me and he cannot be talking with me, then there is a problem. “There is a problem somewhere; somebody who can advise you without asking for anything and he is representing the poor masses in the country and he won’t tell you lies. “He will praise you when you are doing well and when you are not doing well, he will look at you in the face and tell you.” Continuing, he said, “I don’t need the President; I need God, I need the Holy Spirit, I need Jesus; there is suffering everywhere, people are suffering. “To feed is now a problem, and an hungry man is an angry man. “Hunger and anger will lead to danger."
“So, let him know whether he can do away with some advisers around him and bring in the people who are experts in economic revamp. “There are people who are experts in that; let them begin to empower people, people are not empowered, they are still walking around in vicious circles, planning and planning and planning.” Mbaka said there were no spaces left in mortuaries across the country. “Hunger is everywhere, many neighbours don’t eat again, many are being attacked by hunger, hunger is becoming a normal thing and there are people responsible for this.
“Mortuary and ambulance business is now thriving because many cannot afford drugs. “In today’s Nigeria, many are becoming hawkers, who will buy from you, with what? “Everyday, more pipelines are being blown, the Avengers are at work and up till now, there is no solution."
“You know when certain things begin to happen, you begin to ask some questions, somebody like me will begin to ask – when will this end? “If it continues in the next three months, there will be no money to pay salaries – the vicious effect is disastrous and when salaries cannot be paid, teachers will come home, students will stop going to school, there will be more kidnappings, more hooliganism, more armed robbery, more prostitution, immorality will be on the increase.” He urged Buhari to sit up and stop going after the leadership of the Senate. Mbaka equally bemoaned the continuous depreciation in the value of the naira."
“So, the President should sit up – there is a red light blinking on the country.
“The issue of Saraki and Ekweremadu, nobody wants to listen to such stories any more, whether Saraki is the President of the Senate or Ekweremadu is not this or that, the countrymen are tired of such stories. We need economic experts," ." Well it seems that Fr. Mbaka is waking up from his slumber, then I can say good morning Fr. Mbaka.
http://punchng.com/mbaka-attacks-buhari-says-nigerians-hungry/ ". Then on the 7th of Agust 2016, Fr Mbaka denied attacking Buhari on the sun newspapers. " http://sunnewsonline.com/blame-jonathan-not-buhari-for-hunger-poverty-in-nigeria-says-mbaka/ ".
Instead he was praising Buhari administration, this is to tell you that Rev. Fr. Mbaka is confused and now he is battling with his conscious because first he was condemning Buhari and later he was praising the same person. Judging from his tones where is said "If the President should have somebody like me and he cannot be talking with me, then there is a problem. " this shows that there was a promise made to him by the president which is manipulating Fr Mbaka's conscious. If not how come Fulani herdsmen massacred his people in Enugu and Fr. Mbaka did not condemn it because of his selfish interest in the Asu Rock.
But let me remind you Fr. Mbaka that you are an Igbo man and a Christian, and in Hausa /Fulani dictionary, you are an " infidel" meaning they can only use you and dumped you. They can never trust you so the early you understand this and stop crying, the better for you.
In conclusion, I will say that Jonathan wasted 2.1billion dollars arms fund, we know that. Obasonjo wasted 16 billion naira Nepa deal, we also know that. IBB wasted 12billion dollars oil windfall we also know that. Fashola spent 74 million on website, we also know that. APC lies, budget padding and propaganda and other crimes committed by our leaders we also know that and we have moved on waiting for 2019 to correct the wrongs. So my advice to you is accept that you have been used and dumped, ask God for forgiveness and move on. But if you want to get to Asu Rock very fast, start abusing igbos and Biafra in your preaching everyday. Then chances of your Asu Rock dreams will come true. Your action have made me to stop going to church or believing in all theses pastors and reverend talks.
