A Catholic priest, Rev Fr Kelvin Ugwu, has called on
Nigerians to ignore the recent prophecy by the founder of Adoration Ministry,
Enugu, Fr. Ejike Mbaka, against the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter
Obi.
Mbaka, a fiery Enugu Catholic priest, had declared that
Peter Obi cannot emerge as Nigerian President in 2023, saying the Labour Party
candidate is too stingy.
Mbaka’s comment is currently generating reactions from the
teaming supporters of Obi.
Reacting, Fr Kelvin, a Nigerian Catholic priest serving in
Malawi, said in a post on his verified Facebook page that such prophecies had
plunged the entire nation into ‘purgatory’ in previous election years.
Recall that Mbaka had in 2015, declared that
President Muhammadu Buhari was a messiah chosen by God to take the country to
its promised land.
But the controversial priest had, however, attacked Buhari’s
government over alleged corruption, stating that the president was being
controlled by some cabals in the Aso Rock
According to Fr Kelvin, in the past, we have listened to
self-acclaimed prophets tell us who to vote for. We tried them many times, but
they landed us in purgatory. This time around, we have decided not to follow
prophecies.
On the stingy comment by Mbaka, Fr Kelvin opined that
Nigerians had “tried candidates that used to share money. We voted for those
that will distribute oils, Maggi, indomie, and 1k before the camera, but it landed
us in hell”.
“This time around, we have vowed never to listen to any
self-acclaimed prophet and their prophecies. We are not saying prophecy is not
good, but we are saying that the biggest prophecy from God in the 2023 election
is for us to use our common senses, which God gave us.
“Finally, we have also vowed not to give shishi when you
don’t merit it. We will not bribe anybody. We will not be wasteful. Shishi you
will not see unless we see the importance of the project to the masses”.
