OHANEZE TELLS REV. MBAKA TO STOP GIVING SPIRITUAL POISON

• Urges Nigerians to ignore his remarks
• Chime promises to mobilise Enugu State for Jonathan
TheYouth Council of the apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohaneze Ndigbo on Wednesday carpeted the fiery Enugu Catholic priest, Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka, for his recent advice to Nigerians to reject President Jonathan in the coming election because of alleged non-performance.
Describing his remarks as “spiritual poison” unbecoming of a religious leader, the National President of the Ohaneze Youth Council, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, urged Nigerians, especially Ndigbo, to ignore the vituperations of the Catholic priest as he was not speaking for either the Catholic Church or Ndigbo.

He said the comments by Rev. Father Mbaka against the president were not only vexatious but inciting and advised him to steer clear of politics and face his spiritual calling.
"Mbaka as a man of God should have stayed out of politics and concentrated on winning souls for God. He does not understand the issues he dabbled into and he appears to be under the prodding of fifth columnists. His followers expected him to give them spiritual food but he is now giving them a spiritual poison,” the group lamented.
Meanwhile, ahead of the flag-off of the Presidential Campaign of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Enugu state on Friday this week, Governor Sullivan Chime has declared his readiness to mobilise the people of the state to deliver 100 per cent of their votes to President Goodluck Jonathan during the February 14 election.
