His current ordeal started after he attacked Mr. Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP.
He had vowed then to remove his cassock should Nnamani win re-election. But all that is now history as Nnamani did not just win re-election but has been elected to the Senate twice.During the build-up to the 2015 general elections, Mbaka predicted the end of PDP and former President Goodluck Jonathan,
Following the fallout with the current administration, Mbaka had called for Buhari’s impeachment if he failed to resign due to the state of insecurity in the country.To this end, youths and his followers had given the Federal Government 48 hours ultimatum to produce Mbaka. While the Department of State Services, DSS, was accused of picking the priest, the spokesman of the secret police, Peter Afunanya, denied their involvement in his alleged disappearance.
His current attack on Peter Obi was said to have embarrassed and infuriated the Catholic Church authority, especially as the Catholic Bishops had last year in Enugu after their meeting, warned priests against using the pulpit for such utterances. But Mbaka is one of those who have found it difficult to obey the directive.
“I think we should be cautious of our public comments, especially if we have a certain amount of followership. If a normal person speaks, it’s understandable; but when a clergyman speaks, it’s taken seriously. This is why the clergy should use their words sparingly. “I think there must be caution, and people should be made to hold some certain standards, even if we are so emotional, we must exercise some restraint.”
