- Fr Ejike Mbaka celebrated 20years of priesthood yesterday. The controversial cleric is the leader of the Adoration Ministry Enugu and he was showered with words of kindness from the presidency, in statement released by the presidential media aide; Shehu Garba.
He said: “Mbaka is a great priest who is not afraid to speak truth, even at the cost of his own life or being hated by those in power. He rose to the occasion to add his voice in support of good governance and identify with ordinary Nigerians in the face of despair and uncertain future. Though honest opinions attract hostility from leaders detached from reality, history would be kind to Father Mbaka for courageously speaking truth to power, even at great risks.”
