BREAKING: Father Mbaka Again Fires Buhari
Father Mbaka Again Fires Buhari.
Onyxnewsng reports that Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministries, Enugu, Fr Ejike Mbaka, has called out President Muhammadu Buhari following the re-arrest of leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu.
Mbaka said the government should stop fighting agitators and concentrate on ending banditry and killings by armed herdsmen all over the country.
Earlier, the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN), had claimed that Operatives of Nigeria’s security intelligence intercepted Kanu.
The IPOB leader is currently in detention in Abuja, awaiting trial on terrorism and treason charges.
Reacting in a video, which was obtained by Vanguard on Sunday, Mbaka says the arrest of Kanu will not stop killings by Bandits.
The priest stated that banditry and kidnapping have continued in the country even after the arrest of Nnamdi Kanu.
Addressing his congregation, Fr. Mbaka stated that the federal government should stop fighting agitators and use the same energy expended in arresting Nnamdi Kanu to tackle issues such as youth unemployment which leads to banditry and other crimes that cause agitations in the country.
According to him, “Since you arrested him (Kanu), we have lost many lives. So, of what use is his arrest? After he was arrested, the kidnapping didn’t stop in the north; many students were kidnapped in Kaduna last week. Where were our security agencies? Why can’t they use the same temerity to arrest all those people doing this thing (killings)? Arresting Kanu will not solve the problem.
“Most of the politicians will buy ammunition and give it to millions of youth, and after the elections, no one collects the ammunition back. There is “herdsmenism,” people have abandoned the villages, and there are no jobs. Peoples’ farms are ravaged and they are kidnapped and killed. His arrest aggravates the problem.
“Has anybody seen Kanu kill anyone? Kanu is not a murderer. Have you caught him with guns? Why arrest someone who has never kidnapped anyone? Our land must yield an increase. Kanu is not herdsmen, kidnappers, or bandits, or Boko Haram. He does not carry ammunition and he is not even an unknown gunman. My job is to say what the spirit asked me to say.
“If you use the same aggression you deployed to arrest Kanu to address terrorism, things will change. It would help if you used the same temerity to address poverty, herdsmenism, injustice, corruption, and unhealthy tribalism. I am for truth and justice.

“I cannot support terrorism. There is agitation everywhere. All the men of God are agitating silently. The police and the army are agitating. Do you blame them? If they talk, they will be killed. In the mosque, there is agitation. You don’t arrest the agitation. You arrest the cause of it. People are hungry and angry. Millions are idle and an idle hand is the devil’s workshop.
“If Nigeria is doing very well, will Kanu emerge? I am for justice, equity and fair play. Look at what is happening in the North, the north is finished.”
