Mbaka hands over to successor, warns against protest

The Spiritual Director of the Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka, has handed over to his successor, Rev Fr Anthony Amadi.

It would be recalled that the Enugu Catholic Diocese appointed Amadi to replace Mbaka as the director of the Adoration Ministry.

Mbaka was instructed to go to Monastery for deep prayers to ask God for proper directions over his calling which he made controversial.

The members of the Ministry later protested the cleric’s replacement.

However, Mbaka, in a video posted on the church’s Facebook page on Wednesday, urged the protesters to stop the protest and remain calm.

He said: “I wish to use this opportunity to bless and encourage you as I depart to the Monastery in obedience to my bishop. I want you to remain calm as written in Psalm 46:10.

“This is a time we shall know the real Adorers. Please, back me with your prayers so that I will go and embark on deeper reflections and interior waiting on the Lord. I want to remind you of Jeremiah 29:13, God will reverse everything.

“God has good plans for us and not to destroy us. This is not a time to be sorrowful. Be calm and vigilant. Stop every form of protest and demonstration. I love you and I will be with you. God bless you,” the controversial cleric stated.
