The Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has been warned against making statements that could cause instability in the country. The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the ruling All Progressives Congress APC, Yekini Nabena, issued the warning on Friday in Abuja and threatened to expose Fr. Mbaka to the Pope.
Fr. Mbaka had called on the National Assembly to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari if he fails to resign over increased insecurity in the country.
Nabena said it was unfortunate for a man of God who is supposed to deploy all known spiritual means of averting crisis to be the one threatening a democratically elected government for his own personal benefits while pretending to be speaking for the people.
In his reaction, the National Deputy Publicity Secretary made reference to thee Bible where Jesus Christ calmed the storm when a wild storm came up and the waves crashed over the boat, Nabena said Jesus did not blame anyone but prayed and calmed the storm.
“One would wonder who Father Mbaka is emulating because the Lord Jesus Christ did not threaten to bring down the government during his own time, in fact, Jesus Christ obeyed and honoured constituted authority. That’s why he paid his tax.
“We are calling on Father Mbaka to concentrate on his spiritual calling and stop speaking like politicians who it is obvious he (Mbaka) has been dining and wining with. If Mbaka has found another political ally, it is better to leave a political message for politicians.
“Calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to either resign or be impeached because of the current challenges is ungodly. Father Mbaka should not, however, take his luck too far because there is a lot to tell the Vatican and the Pope about his person and his sources of inspiration”, Nabena said.
According to Nabena, “Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God RCCG and Pastor WF Kumuyi of the Deeper Life Bible Ministry and many other true men of God are perfect examples of clerics who will rather fast and pray to avert a crisis in the country instead of threatening the government of the day”.
