Where was cardinal John when Mbaka released birds to fight for the re-election bid of GEJ?
What was his stance when PEJ knelt before Mbaka for spiritual cleansing and blessings especially for 2015?
Since Mbaka was not under his dioceses, why make statement on the issue?
Our religious leaders have really compromised and are going into extinction just the way of the traditional leaders who have since lost respects from their subjects.
our politician are making an in-road into the religious circle and thta may spell doom for the Nation.
If Okotie did not say God told him he will be president,Tunde Bakare will tell you OBJ will not complete his term,TB will always predict football matches and impending doom of falling planes that could not be averted though he could not see the collapse of his Church,sheik Gumi will tell us GMB and GEJ should not contest and primate Olabayo will predict more of politics like APC losing Lagos and gaining Ogun and other states and all sorts.
What a country! none has ever see vision for the poor masses nor Councillor and Chairman LGA. They focus on the mighty due to their greed for the stomach hence they ride big cars and live in mansions while the congregations wallow in poverty.
All na scam!

chukwudi44:
As far as tht 2015 elections are concerned Fr mbaka is on his own

and will have himself to blame,after all the repugnant lies......

arsetalks:
Yes I do. Lagos to be precise. Do you live in Nigeria?

yap, Lagos too, you don't sound like you live in Nigeria.

In as much as the Catholic Church works with high diplomacy, Mbaka is one of his kind. He doesn't hold back in his critics and in many occasions he has stepped out of line with Catholic diplomacy. We know this but the question is; how truthful are his statements?

Sharing such message in the Eastern part of the country goes to show his fearlessness and carefreeness when it comes to speaking out against bad leadership.

The Bishop is right, Mbaka is known for extreme critics which is not totally in conformity with the Catholic tradition and he might be right to call him to order. But then, the priest's words have, over time, been seen to be truthful though they come out harshly.

The Bishop made a valid submission but I support that Mbaka should be sanctioned.It is only a polithiefcian that says something now and says another tomorrow which the same thing Mbaka did between November and December.I hate to say this but the Father is more a polithiefcian than a priest.

He should be called to order asap.

kokoA:
I love the response from the Bishop of Jos diocese "there wa no uproar when the same Mbaka assured the first lady of continuity"... So much wisdom in that reply Why the double standard now?

SANCTION THAT SCOUNDREL OF A PRIEST...Jonathan pls dont reply him he is just an attention seeker. I urge his followers yo open their eyes.

THE GEJ CAMPAIGN ORGANISATION HAS WARNED THAT AQUA RAPHA YOUGHURT DRinkers are liable to die confused.

wisdom is when you say the right thing at the right time. I am from a family of chronic catholics but I won't support this man when he tries to canvass votes for an Islamic extremist.

He's not speaking for all catholics, period.

My dear. Let's be bold enuf to say the bitter truth for once, where were u when the same father mbaka was blessing jonathan n his wife?

For those saying a preacher should not be involve in politics should read this and learn.

Below is how prophet Elisha instigated a coup in the Bible. The coup was God's wish for sure.
There are many other examples in the bible. Most of the true prophet of old were very involve in the politics of thier people.
read and have knowledge
2King Chapter 9 NIV

Jehu Anointed King of Israel

9 The prophet Elisha summoned a man from the company of the prophets and said to him, “Tuck your cloak into your belt, take this flask of olive oil with you and go to Ramoth Gilead. 2 When you get there, look for Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi. Go to him, get him away from his companions and take him into an inner room. 3 Then take the flask and pour the oil on his head and declare, ‘This is what the Lord says: I anoint you king over Israel.’ Then open the door and run; don’t delay!”

4 So the young prophet went to Ramoth Gilead. 5 When he arrived, he found the army officers sitting together. “I have a message for you, commander,” he said.

“For which of us?” asked Jehu.

“For you, commander,” he replied.

6 Jehu got up and went into the house. Then the prophet poured the oil on Jehu’s head and declared, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anoint you king over the Lord’s people Israel. 7 You are to destroy the house of Ahab your master, and I will avenge the blood of my servants the prophets and the blood of all the Lord’s servants shed by Jezebel. 8 The whole house of Ahab will perish. I will cut off from Ahab every last male in Israel—slave or free.[a] 9 I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat and like the house of Baasha son of Ahijah. 10 As for Jezebel, dogs will devour her on the plot of ground at Jezreel, and no one will bury her.’” Then he opened the door and ran.

11 When Jehu went out to his fellow officers, one of them asked him, “Is everything all right? Why did this maniac come to you?”

“You know the man and the sort of things he says,” Jehu replied.

12 “That’s not true!” they said. “Tell us.”

Jehu said, “Here is what he told me: ‘This is what the Lord says: I anoint you king over Israel.’”

13 They quickly took their cloaks and spread them under him on the bare steps. Then they blew the trumpet and shouted, “Jehu is king!”

Jehu Kills Joram and Ahaziah
14 So Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. (Now Joram and all Israel had been defending Ramoth Gilead against Hazael king of Aram, 15 but King Joram[b] had returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds the Arameans had inflicted on him in the battle with Hazael king of Aram.) Jehu said, “If you desire to make me king, don’t let anyone slip out of the city to go and tell the news in Jezreel.” 16 Then he got into his chariot and rode to Jezreel, because Joram was resting there and Ahaziah king of Judah had gone down to see him.

17 When the lookout standing on the tower in Jezreel saw Jehu’s troops approaching, he called out, “I see some troops coming.”

“Get a horseman,” Joram ordered. “Send him to meet them and ask, ‘Do you come in peace?’”

18 The horseman rode off to meet Jehu and said, “This is what the king says: ‘Do you come in peace?’”

“What do you have to do with peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind me.”

The lookout reported, “The messenger has reached them, but he isn’t coming back.”

19 So the king sent out a second horseman. When he came to them he said, “This is what the king says: ‘Do you come in peace?’”

Jehu replied, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me.”

20 The lookout reported, “He has reached them, but he isn’t coming back either. The driving is like that of Jehu son of Nimshi—he drives like a maniac.”

21 “Hitch up my chariot,” Joram ordered. And when it was hitched up, Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah rode out, each in his own chariot, to meet Jehu. They met him at the plot of ground that had belonged to Naboth the Jezreelite. 22 When Joram saw Jehu he asked, “Have you come in peace, Jehu?”

“How can there be peace,” Jehu replied, “as long as all the idolatry and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel abound?”

23 Joram turned about and fled, calling out to Ahaziah, “Treachery, Ahaziah!”

24 Then Jehu drew his bow and shot Joram between the shoulders. The arrow pierced his heart and he slumped down in his chariot. 25 Jehu said to Bidkar, his chariot officer, “Pick him up and throw him on the field that belonged to Naboth the Jezreelite. Remember how you and I were riding together in chariots behind Ahab his father when the Lord spoke this prophecy against him: 26 ‘Yesterday I saw the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons, declares the Lord, and I will surely make you pay for it on this plot of ground, declares the Lord.’[c] Now then, pick him up and throw him on that plot, in accordance with the word of the Lord.”

27 When Ahaziah king of Judah saw what had happened, he fled up the road to Beth Haggan.[d] Jehu chased him, shouting, “Kill him too!” They wounded him in his chariot on the way up to Gur near Ibleam, but he escaped to Megiddo and died there. 28 His servants took him by chariot to Jerusalem and buried him with his ancestors in his tomb in the City of David. 29 (In the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab, Ahaziah had become king of Judah.)

Jezebel Killed
30 Then Jehu went to Jezreel. When Jezebel heard about it, she put on eye makeup, arranged her hair and looked out of a window. 31 As Jehu entered the gate, she asked, “Have you come in peace, you Zimri, you murderer of your master?”[e]

32 He looked up at the window and called out, “Who is on my side? Who?” Two or three eunuchs looked down at him. 33 “Throw her down!” Jehu said. So they threw her down, and some of her blood spattered the wall and the horses as they trampled her underfoot.

34 Jehu went in and ate and drank. “Take care of that cursed woman,” he said, “and bury her, for she was a king’s daughter.” 35 But when they went out to bury her, they found nothing except her skull, her feet and her hands. 36 They went back and told Jehu, who said, “This is the word of the Lord that he spoke through his servant Elijah the Tishbite: On the plot of ground at Jezreel dogs will devour Jezebel’s flesh.[f] 37 Jezebel’s body will be like dung on the ground in the plot at Jezreel, so that no one will be able to say, ‘This is Jezebel.’”

ratiken:
Only a fool will believe Mbaka is a man of God.
The story is now very clear to any sane mind

In November, he declared GEJ the best president ever. He expected some compensation from the presidency for the campaign and none was forth coming. He tried calling PEJ but could not reach her either.

That was the reason he had to go against GEJ from his alter believing that is the sure way to get the presidency's attention.

Am sorry, But Mbaka is no man of God and holy spirit never ministered to him. He's just after his pocket at the election period.

Go get some brain

i weep when i saw Mbaka attributing Yaradua's death, world fuel price, boko haram to GEJ. Mr President i luv u even if no one else does.

Mind u Fr Mbaka said that he was directed by the holy spirit to deliver the mesage,he dont want to do it but holy spirit directed it to do so.Fr Mbaka is no 1 Man of God in Nigeria.If all men of God are speaking the truth, Nigeria would have been better by now.

The uproar now is that FR MBAKA is debasing the HOLY GHOST.

Or do you believe the HOLY GHOST is saying two opposite things in less than one month?

These are signs written on the wall for the wise to comprehend.

Please, do so.
Why should priests try hard to keep parishioners' morals under check and yet, one of their own turns rogue under their noses.
The Papacy, with the leader's tolerant view of things, should voice his opinion on this, for this act isn't going down well with the faithfuls.

U have problem with that? Catholic church keeps records of birth n deaths at chaplaincy, parish and diocesan levels.

Infact only a catholic baptismal card is accepted in embassies as birth certificate.

So stop being a thomas

TeaParty:


More troubles appear to be staring the controversial Catholic Priest and Founder of Adoration Ministry, Enugu Catholic Archdiocese, Rev. Fr Ejike Mbaka, in the face following his statement urging Nigerians to reject President Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and vote for Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd ) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the February 14 presidential election.

Speaking to THISDAY in an exclusive interview, the Catholic Bishop of Abuja Metropolitan See, Cardinal John Onaiyekan, said given the rules of the church, Fr. Mbaka ought to be sanctioned.

This came as Onaiyekan cautioned the PDP and opposition, All Progressives Congress (APC) to desist from campaigns of calumny.

He  stated that prophecies of doom  ahead of 2015 elections notwithstanding, “PDP and APC have no right to disorganise Nigeria.”

Onaiyekan,  commenting on Fr  Mbaka, said the priest went overboard in his statement insinuating that President Jonathan’s administration has been plagued with ‘bad luck’ and poor performance.

Onaiyekan distanced the Catholic Church from Mbaka’s statement,  stating that, “Mbaka will take responsibilities for his own actions. I do not believe in my mind that the way things are in Nigeria, any Catholic priest has the mandate to decide which of the political contestants should be voted for. What most of us will do is to tell people to vote according to their conscience and then, we tell the authorities to allow people to vote freely and fairly.


“I wouldn’t be surprised if most people are not happy with the statement he made. From my reactions, you should see that I do not agree with him. I don’t believe a priest should be doing that.

“But, like I said, Mbaka is a priest of his own type. If he was in my archdioceses, I will have sanctioned him long ago for the kind of things and utterances that he makes. But, he is not under my diocese; he has a Bishop to handle that if there is any need,” the Cardinal observed.


Onaiyekan, rather maintained that Mbaka had earlier made insinuations  that President Jonathan’s wife, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, will continue in office.
“I hope that people are not thinking that we are sending Mbaka to talk rubbish, how can they think that? If you want to hear anything even not official but at least, authoritative, then, you listen to the bishops. Rather than him and I don’t see any bishop talking that way.”

Meanwhile, President of the Catholic Bishops Conference of Nigeria (CBCN), Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama, said Nigerians should avoid hasty generalisation, as the statement of one Catholic priest cannot be taken to represent the voices of more than 30 million Catholics in Nigeria.

Kaigama told THISDAY that though Mbaka could not have been speaking for the Nigerian Catholic Church, Nigerians should avoid making unguided statements and hasty generalisation on national issues like the 2015 general election.

“There are more than 30 million Catholics in Nigeria, Fr Mbaka is just one Catholic, if he makes a statement, it cannot be the voices of more than 30 million Nigerian Catholics speaking.

“So Nigerians should avoid hasty generalisation. Mbaka cannot speak for the church, only the CBCN can speak for the church. Those who are complaining, should go to Fr Mbaka and find out why he is saying what he is saying,” Kaigama said.

The CBCN President informed THISDAY that it is completely out of place for a Catholic priest to be partisan.

“I tell you,  even the Canon Law forbid a priest  to engage in partisan politics,” Kaigama told THISDAY.

Asked if there would be punitive measures meted out to Mbaka, Kaigama said:  “If the law has  been abused, we will ensure that we enforce the law. In this case, it is not the Catholic church; the church did not send him to say those things.

“Mbaka belongs to a diocese, so if the Bishop finds out that he has fallen out of line, the  Bishop can call him to order,” he said.

“Mbaka is just expressing his opinion, if we want to make a political statement, we know how to do it. That we keep quiet and  we are  marginalised, does not mean we don’t have strength. With more than 30 million Catholics,  we  have the  strength,” Kaigama submitted.

The Archbishop of Jos argued that there was no public uproar when the same Mbaka assured the first lady of continuity.

Fr. Mbaka has come under intense condemnation following his sermon last week, lampooning Jonathan’s administration for poor performance.

His  comment had elicited public outcry, especially, among the teeming Catholic population in South-east and South-south parts of the country where President Jonathan has a strong support base. http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/i-ll-sanction-mbaka-if-he-s-under-my-diocese-says-onaiyekan/198424/

See this idiott? Whenever adeboye keeps his tongue up GEJ's arsehole no-one says anything now a pastor has finally said the truth and everyone is going crazy? What Mbaka said forever remains the truth and will stand the test of time until the very end. Nigerians need to realize that there's so little money can do for you, learn to speak the truth. Lies will surely fade away but the truth is eternal

arsetalks:
Are you a Christian or at least a church goer? If yes, you yourself should know that even in the bible, if you do not read some preceding verses, you may get confused.

Read the said interview in full and judge for yourself.

You will conveniently ignore the part in which he said non Muslims will be lectured so they know they have nothing to fear.

Really Christians have nothing to fear under sharia
No second. Chance after a mistake
Got ur hand chopped off or get castrated

If buahri haven't display his bigotry
He doesn't need to try and penetrate RCCG... Rolling with pastors, taking photos at church just to make up

Onaiyekan has spoken well.

Mbaka is on his own

I am a catholic and I know the Catholic Church does not involve herself in partisan politics..

Mbaka please guard your utterances.

customized13:
did he specifically said he saw a vision?

The former post on the Father's comment included a prophecy that Jona will lose.


Read them to confirm.

arsetalks:
One would think the so called Bishops will come out and refute the allegations Father Mbaka made one by one.

Was he making point or not? Do the congregation agree or not? No wonder he is known as controversial. In Nigeria, you are termed controversial if you say the truth and refuse to dance to the gallery.

The truth as you see it. Your truth may not be my truth,because you have an opinion doesn't make it the truth.

teemanbastos:
hmmm.. In weeks time,all this go end...
But dis is trash..wen Mbaka was blessing Jonathan and wife weeks ago..why didnt the man say he will sanction Mbaka?! And now he spoke THE TRUTH?
Indeed the Truth is bitter

To me this is a biased statement.

#Buhari/Osinbajo.

I agree that the truth is bitter.. i also understand and agree that our spiritual leaders have the duty to guide us.

But what I don't understand is why the Priest failed to tell the President and his wife the truth about their government to their face when he had the opportunity to do so? Instead he was busy blessing them and promising longetivity government!

so when and where did he find this new found courage? let any member of his congregation step out of line, and that person will be lampooned with immediate sanctions!

Obviously, the message being sent by this priest is that even in the church, not all animals are equal, and justice selective. I don't think that is right.

OLUJOSHINS:

same prophesy that said Jonathan will win in November, who's fooling who?

rexkexmilan:
Now That Is Unkind!

4gerrit dear! Just imagine why he did what he did! Mbaka claimed that he asked the first lady for her number and she refused. That could be the reason why he made those silly comments againt the president. Nonsense!!!

Very very foolish bishop, Bishop who don't know what is happening in Catholic Church today, Bishop any attempt of any stupid thing, Catholic Church will be history in Nigeria, I like this rev, only man that can say the truth, with the help of God chimaroke 's evil and bad government is now a history, as for good luck, what you done for the igbos, good luck is the luckiest president nigerian ever had,apc Bleep up by presenting buhari, South East and south south good luck have 95 % vote fact

At this point I expect Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka to take the same step as Rev. Fr. Martin Luther of Germany, and insist he will rather do what is in the Bible or led to do than to dance in the tone of the church.

Thank u.

I am a Catholic too and I know Catholic church always desist from being partisan.

How do u reconcile fr mbaka's statements from d altar to a crowd of both pdp n apc supporters.

Very embarrassing.

The Catholic church pulled from CAN bc of oritsejafor's politicization of CAN so nobody will now say Catholic church is supporting GEJ now.

The church has always criticized bad governance But will never ask members to vote for a particular person or party

FUNNY

I do not think any church adopted any politician,just vict most of this men of god take sides.ARCH BISHOP LIVES IN F C T,CAN in against his master Jona?he is definately for him.have they been able to call this president of theirs to order ever since he started messing up with evil practices?how many of them has come out to condemn all his corrupt practices and vict of his ministers and governors?HE ARCH BISHOP IS[ ALSO GUILTY.OF course,they all get from the loot too.ALL THE RELIGious leaders in FCT[WHETHER CHRITIANS OR MUSLIMS ]ARE ALL BENEFICIARIES OF THIS LOOTsquote author=Yomieluv post=29502688]The church shouldn't have endorsed anybody,most of these politicians can never be trusted.
