Enugu Catholic Bishop, Most. Rev. Callistus Onaga, has said the Catholic Church would enforce strict compliance to the directives by Catholic Bishops Conference of Nigeria (CBCN) that Catholic priests should not get involved in endorsement of candidates ahead of the 2019 general elections.


Bishop Onaga, who made the assertion while delivering his Christmas message at a press conference in Enugu, said, “The habit of some clergy men making predictions and showing partisanship in the way they preach at the altar has been stopped.

“The clerics shouldn’t engage in political prophecies on who wins or loses.”


The Bishop also urged Christians to extend love to all, even their enemies as well as the less privileged.

He, however, expressed concern over what he described as grave socio-political and economic situation prevalent in the country, saying that the country was sitting on a brink of extinction.

Bishop Onaga charged Nigerians to pray hard and to use the opportunity of Christmas celebration to seek God’s intervention in the land in order to avert the wicked plans of the devil against the country.


“In Nigeria today, you are all aware that things are going helter-skelter, not to just exaggerate; things are not going well. It will be wrong for anybody to say things are going well in Nigeria. Both politicians, men of God, businessmen, and all kinds of moguls know that Nigeria is sitting on the brink of extinction.

“And we are praying to God that 2019 will give us some hope. And I know; I believe that God loves Nigeria, something will happen.

“So, my dear people let us use the Christmas of this year to ask God to continue to lead us to the land of hope that we are moving to,” he said.

Cant someone prophecy in peace again?

The APC conman Ejike Mbaka will not like this.

They should be bold and outrightly ex communicate Reverend Mbaka because he is the only one doing that nonsense in the Catholic church I know... The Nigerian Catholic church has rubbished itself in the mud of politics over the years , we remember how the Catholic church clearly took sides with Buhari in the 2015 elections and see where that has left Nigerians today

That is the way is should be

Both political prophecy and political brown envelopes

That will be a good and great step

I pray it works,because now there is no different btw businessman and prophecy tellers, to me is a strategy of making one party win or give support

Hahahaha

This is a big punishment for some pastors. This mundun mundun time. Dia ris God oo

Bad market, bad christmas, bad new year.

A very welcome development.

If your efforts to understand what's going on in the world don't account for the fact that extremely powerful people are waging an aggressive campaign to manipulate the information you use to inform yourself, your understanding of the world will necessarily be flawed.

better

Mbaka Why?

You said Mbaka is the only one doing that nonsese and turn around to say it the entire catholic church of of more than 30 million in Nigeria took side in 2015 in another sentence.

Can you make your point without bias to yourself. Are you a christian?

Buhari is the only solution to our numerous problems... God bless PMB

I think the strength of the catholic church lies in their effective leadership and they have proven it again.

I wish other christian churches or religions can have a taste of it.

I hope so

And you can see the church hierarchy draw the battle line.
Afterall we are in democracy not theocracy

E dey pain them. I am sure if Mbaka had prophesied against PMB/Osibanjo the catholic church would have kept quiet but because it went against one of their members in the name of Peter Obi they've showed concern and started banning such act.

Though i don't like men of God if they're meddling into politics.

But have they condemned Bishop Oyedepo, Apostle Suleman, Bishop Mathew Kuka that keep on aligning with PDP and Atiku/Obi to the point of preaching and encouraging their members to vote PDP in the pulpit always, the just ended SHILOH was one of the examples by Bishop Oyedepo.

Even Pastor Ayodele that said God revealed to him that Saraki will be the next president come 2019, did Saraki even win the PDP primaries to start with.

If you can point to any article from the catholic church in Nigeria to back your theory of taking side, then come up with it. If not remain silent on today subject matter


follow up: Can you imagine this guy backing his theory up with Youtube link of people in the swimming pool. Jokers everywhere all enemies of catholic church.
