You can’t be wiser than all Catholic Bishops, avoid Nigerian politics – MASSOB tells Mbaka

The Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has warned fiery priest, Rev’d Fr. Ejike Mbaka to leave Nigerian politics alone and face his spiritual calling, stressing that the kind of dirty politics played in Nigeria was not for clerics like him.

Just on Sunday, the Catholic priest had while delivering his homily in Enugu, gone ahead to castigate the administration of former president, Goodluck Jonathan, reiterating his earlier prophecy that some people were plotting to kill President Muhammadu Buhari over anti-graft war.

However, in a statement issued by a MASSOB official, David Chinedu Eboson, the group while calling on Mbaka to choose between politics and priesthood, advised him to steer clear of the murky waters of Nigerian politics because, “Nigeria politics is beyond your understanding.”

It added: “God forbid that we will be among the party that will be clapping for you while you are going wrong. He should stay clear of the Nigerian politics before it drags his spirituality to the dust. We are not saying he should not give prophecy of what God has revealed to him concerning Nigeria and as an anointed man of God, but his today’s (Sunday) Adoration preaching are far away from what is happening in the country, as if the anointing is not with him again.

“People now see him as a Priest who is always going to Aso Villa for selfish interest. He can never serve two masters at a time, if he wants to be a politician, he should forget about priesthood.”

MASSOB accused Buhari and other Northern leaders of celebrating the 21 years of priesthood of the Catholic priest because he was dancing to their music, stressing that the priest could not have been wiser than all the Catholic Bishops put together.

It advised Mbaka to join forces with those it described as freedom fighters clergies who it said are agitating for the liberation of millions of Biafrans from Nigeria’s enslavement, if he wants to win souls for God and not to soil his white rob in the murky waters of Nigerian politics.
