Missing Father Mbaka: Rev Fr. reappears after protest by followers

The Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Nigeria (AMEN), Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka has resurfaced after he was declared missing on Wednesday by the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide (OYC).

Many youths protested, alleging he had been picked up by security operatives or gunmen over his recent call on President Muhammadu Buhari to resign or be impeached.

In a live video update on Wednesday afternoon by BBC Pidgin Mbaka was seen in an open roof car waving to protesters who surrounded him alongside operatives of the Nigeria Police Force.

Mbaka was seen along Igboeze street in Independence layout close to Catholic Bishop’s court in an SUV vehicle where he received his faithful who had laid siege at the Bishop’s court demanding Mbaka’s whereabouts.

Father Mbaka asked people to move to his adoration ground where he promised to address a press conference.

Fr Mbaka recently called for the resignation or impeachment of President Muhammadu Buhari over the high rate of insecurity in the country.

But the Nigerian government claimed that Father Mbaka’s recent call for Buhari’s resignation or impeachment was because he was denied contracts.

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) had also threatened to expose Mbaka’s secrets to the Pope in the Vatican over his recent call against the Buhari government.
