The Christian Association of
Nigeria in Imo State, and other leaders have attacked Catholic Priest, Rev. Fr.
Ejike Mbaka, over his prophecy that Governor Emeka Ihedioha will lose his seat
to Hope Uzodinma.
The
Enugu cleric, who is known for controversial prophecies, in his New Year
message, said Senator Hope Uzodimma would be sworn in as governor of Imo State.
He was quoted as saying, “In
spite of all that would happen this 2020, there is hope. In Imo State, there is
hope. Hope, hope, hope … hope in Imo State!
“Imo people have suffered (but)
God is raising a new hope that would be an agent of salvation for them.
“He’s coming with a new flag to
restore the dignity of that noble land. A new leadership that will break
barriers and there would be joy in the land of Imo.
“Lift your candles as I bless
Hope Uzodinma; and I empower him to, spiritually, to take over. How, I do not
know.
“Please, if you heard that there
would be a new government in Imo and you don’t like the message; if I say Hope,
you can say hopeless but do not fight me.
But reacting, CAN leader, Senior
Apostle Godson Ibeji, said that Mbaka’s prophecy was politically motivated.
He told Daily Trust, “CAN has
consistently opposed such politically motivated prophecies and at the same time
strives to maintain the standards that guide and regulates the practice of
Christianity.”
Also the National Youth Council
of Nights Imo State chapter, in a statement in Owerri by its state Chairman,
Isdore Chukwuemeka, said,
“We advise Fr. Mbaka to leave
Governor Emeka Ihedioha alone. The youths of Imo State are pleased and
satisfied with the ‘Rebuild Imo’ administration.
“Governor Ihedioha is barely
seven months in office and has aggressively restored all that the locust had
eaten in Imo state in the last eight years.
“We do not want further
distractions of the rebuilding process in the State. Where was Mbaka when Imo
State was serially raped for eight years by a clueless administration that
mindlessly looted the treasury of the State?”
