2019: Why Buhari, Atiku may fail — Fr. Mbaka

December 3, 2018

Fiery Catholic Priest and proprietor of Adoration Catholic Prayer Ministry, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has predicted doomsday for President Muhammad Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, saying that none of them would win the 2019 polls.

Speaking over the weekend during the 2018 Harvest and Bazaar celebration at his Adoration Ground in Emene, Enugu State, he said that it was bad and scandalous before the Holy Spirit that after their prayers on Adoration alter made Buhari the President in 2015, he has refused to come and do a project for them as a way of thanking God. Angrier, Fr. Mbaka further narrated how their prayers saved Buhari from deadly sickness in 2015 and said anybody with Buhari’s ears should warm him that no one cheats God, that after he thinks he is healthy, his sickness may come in another form.

Speaking on Atiku, Fr. Mbaka said that if he continued on the same trajectory, he and his running mate would end in shame. Speaking in Igbo, Mbaka said: “Ask Atiku if it is these steps that the cow will take to reach Umuahia.” Mbaka concluded by requesting that Atiku should reach out to Igbo leaders like Hon. Ike Ekweremadu and also come personally to Adoration ground and do a project for them.

Fr. Mbaka also berated Atiku’s running mate, Mr. Peter Obi. He said though they had always supported Obi, the former Anambra State Governor had not done anything for them.

The renowned cleric said that God would bless Gov. Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State and grant them a second term in office for what they had done for him.

Fr. Mbaka curiously withheld Obi’s blessing and said he would only release it after Obi had done a project for them. Using Umahi as an example, Mbaka said: “Umahi donated 1,000 bags of rice and 1,000 tubers of yam to us, but it meant nothing to me until he handed N10 million cheque to me and promised to build a project for me. This is the type of gesture we require from Obi,” While acknowledging the donation of N500,000 from Obi as his money for breaking of kolanut, Fr Mbaka said that “stinginess is not a virtue”.

In his own remarks, the representative of President Buhari, Sen. Hope Uzodinmma, was warmly embraced the moment he announced N2 million for breaking of kola by Buhari and the announcement that Buhari will build a hospital on the Adoration ground. The elated Mbaka said that such was the type of gesture he needed from Buhari.

Not yet done, Mbaka said that Uzodimna, the APC candidate for Imo, would become the next Governor of the state by the grace of God.
