Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, the Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry Enugu Nigeria, has refuted claims by the presidency alleging that he criticised President Muhammadu Buhari because he was denied contracts.
Last week, Mbaka called for President Buhari’s resignation, due to his inability to tackle the increasing security crisis in the country.
Mbaka who lamented the current security and economic situation ravaging the entire nation urged the National Assembly to impeach the president if he fails to resign.
Meanwhile, Garba Shehu, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity in a statement, alleged that the clergy’s criticism was because the President failed to award contracts to him.
According to the presidential spokesman, Mbaka once visited the president at the State House demanding for contract as a reward for his support in the 2015 and 2019 general election.
However, the renowned gospel preacher and a prophet, on Sunday described the allegation as childish, insisting that his truth is ‘hitting them hard”.
The priest noted that his call for the president’s resignation was inspired by the Holy Spirit.
In his words: “I don’t want to talk about that because it’s a laughable and childish accusation. Whoever is saying that, is a shame to himself and shame to the people he is representing. Fr. Mbaka’s voice came from the spiritual. So what I’m saying is unchallengeable.
“With enormous joy, I am happy that the truth is hitting them hard. No amount of money can merchandise the Holy Ghost anointing in me. Fr Mbaka is unbribable. Even if they come and build the highest university here, that cannot bribe me.”
He, however, admitted that he led some security experts to the president before the 2019 general elections, stating that they were three men who offered to help in tackling the security crisis in the country.
“I don’t know them, but they came to Enugu and pleaded for me to link them to government. Because of the level of insecurity and how Nigeria has been moving oil outside the country. These are the three people they rejected their offer”, he added.
