Father Mbaka Blasts Tinubu Over Insecurity, Hardship, Sends Strong Warning To President
The Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry Nigeria (AMEN), Fr Ejike Mbaka, has warned President Bola Tinubu to tackle the rate of insecurity and hardship in Nigeria.
According to the cleric, a wave of hunger is coming which will be devastating.
Mbaka, who spoke on Sunday while delivering a homily, said that despite many obstacles on his way to the presidency which he overcame by an act of providence, Tinubu had not exhibited political will toward solving the country’s problems.
A higher wave of hunger is underway in the country if insecurity is not dealt with, he warned.
He said, “We are asking people to go to the farm and produce; but if you enter the farm, herdsmen with AK-47s will enter the farm and kill the farmers, who will go to the farm anymore?
“Hunger, as I told you last two years, has not even started; I won’t tell you lies; everybody should be meaningfully engaged, start something.
“In Nkerefi last time, about six women who were farming were killed and their stomachs brought out; who will go to the farm there again? The fear is there.
“Even politicians who think they are safe in their comfort zone, you are not safe because the level of insecurity will come to your doorstep one day.”
The controversial priest claimed that President Tinubu, despite endemic corruption in the oil sector, had yet to go against the cabals, warning that God was watching.
In the video of the homily shared on his Facebook page, Mbaka said: “Mr President, you can do it; to fix Nigeria is not difficult if the leader has the willpower. I know that this one will make national news but let it be.
“What is happening in the oil sector? How many barrels are being produced and how many dollars are in the Nigerian account? A country like Nigeria that exports millions of barrels of oil per month, how much are we saving?
“Why is it difficult up till now to fix other refineries? Who are the cabals? Can’t they be de-canibalized? Cabals can be de-cannibalized if the president has the willpower; hell will not fall, heaven will not fall.
“These people can go to jail; after all, many of them did not support you; so why are you protecting them? Mr President, wake up, God is watching you to see what you can do.”
Mbaka decried that Nigerians are living in penury amid plenty, saying, “Our hearts are broken; go to our schools, see how messy the government schools are; are we taking care of our teachers and our doctors? Look at how they are- when they travel abroad, they begin to mine money in pounds and dollars.
“Teachers, once they retire, no gratuity, no pension; the hearts of the retirees are broken; let there be a law that will bring a solution to all these maladies.
“Heartbreak everywhere, look at our police and military, their hearts are also broken; what kind of guns are the policemen using? When the senior squad passes, they will kill the policemen on the watch post, carry their guns and run away. What happens to their families when their husbands die on the duty post?
“No compensation; the next one minute, they chase them out of the barracks; those who are in Borno forests fighting Boko Haram, what is happening to their families at home? Who is taking care of them?
“The hearts of their family members are broken, shattered; they are fighting those with bombs with catapults; those people they are fighting are carrying launchers.
“How many young men have we buried and still burying; insecurity everywhere.”
He continued, “I know that this man that has come to be the president of the country, if he submits himself to God, with enough willpower, God has blessed him in wealth. He has not come as a beggar, like many politicians who failed the election and they almost committed suicide because they used all they had to do election.
“Jagaban is not a poor man; so he can do something extraordinary; do it the other way round; shock all these people who are criminals; devise a policy that will bring security, bring joy to the Nigerian people and you will see there will begin to be a meaningful transformation.
“Look at the bank of today giving people loans with interest of 25 percent, some 26, some 27, how can you pay back? With which collateral?
“So, what’s the hope of the youths? All they need is encouragement, empowerment, and support. Nigeria will be better than China; we can Dubanize Nigeria; The youths are waiting for the healing of their broken hearts.
