DSS has summoned Father Mbaka to Abuja.
Newsone reports that operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS), have summoned Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, a controversial priest, to Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, for questioning.
A report monitored on SaharaReporters by Newsone Nigeria says the DSS operatives visited the church to drop the letter of invitation. However, they didn’t meet the cleric at the church premises.
Why DSS summoned Father Mbaka
Details of why the intelligence unit summoned the priest were not stated, Newsone understands that it might not be unconnected with Mbaka’s criticism of the Buhari government in recent times.
Father Mbaka, who is the Spiritual Director, Adoration Ministry in Enugu, South Eastern Nigeria, has attracted attention lately with his criticism of President Muhammadu Buhari government.
Newsone recalls that Father Mbaka recently said God had rejected the President and unhappy with his leadership.
Reacting to the summon in a video, Father Mbaka said, “I got a call that the DSS people from Abuja came here (Enugu) with a letter of invitation to Abuja. Over what? What I cannot understand is that the mother church in Nigeria should be “cowed down” to lilliputian.
“The church is a lion and lamb. The bible says if the foundation is destroyed, what can the righteous do. Every priest is a prophet and a king. We must protect the sheep. In this time, when killings are every day story, when there is hunger everywhere, people do not have hope again. The only hope I have is God. Anybody who will stop people from worshipping here will regret it.
“I am the servant here. They don’t understand history. I spoke against Abacha. I went to Minna to tell Babangida what was wrong in his time. I spoke to Obasanjo face to face. I perform under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. I ministered to the late President Yaradua. I am being used by a higher being called the Holy Spirit.
“If they are attacking me here and there, no wahala (no problem). The Bible says if God is for us, who can be against us? Only God can be God. I heard the security people did not accept the letter. They asked them to come on Monday to give me the letter. If they know the anointing here is too hot for them, let them change. I will not keep quiet.”
