Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, a Catholic priest based in Enugu, declared on Monday night that no one could stop him from giving prophetic messages.
He stated this while delivering prophecies for the year 2024. Mbaka stated that he has no control over these kinds of messages.
“I don’t know how it happens to me. I am not boastful of it. It comes to me once in a while. I did not get it through priestly ordination. It has been following me even before I became a Catholic priest,” Mbaka said.
The Catholic priest, who mostly spoke Igbo, maintained that he is not involved in politics, despite what others have accused him of doing.
He stated he exclusively conveys messages that he has personally heard from God.
“If I am sent, for instance, to deliver a particular message to (President Bola) Tinubu, nobody can stop it on this earth. I will deliver the message exactly as it was given,” Mbaka said.
He added, “If I am instructed to say that somebody will not win an election, even if the person is my blood brother, I will tell him about it privately. But if he doesn’t listen, I will say it publicly so that when it comes to fulfilment, I will not be counted among those who supported a failure because I can never support a failure.
“No matter how you want to understand it or misunderstand it, I do not prophesy because I am an ordained Catholic priest. Even if you ask my classmates in seminary school, I have been like that.”
Mbaka seems to be alluding to his harsh criticism of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate for the Labour Party in 2023.
When Mbaka said in June 2022 that Mr. Obi would not win the 2023 presidential election because he was a “stingy man,” he infuriated many people, including the leadership of the church.
As a result of his remarks, the Enugu Catholic Diocese’s administration asked him to resign from his position as spiritual director of his Adoration Ministry in October and move to a monastery in Los Angeles, California, as a form of disciplinary action.
It wasn’t until January 2023 that the priest made his way back to Nigeria from the US to start working at the ministry.
