The Enugu State Police command has refuted
claims by Enugu-based Catholic priest who is also the founder of Adoration
Ministry, Enugu, Rev. Father Camillus Ejike Mbaka, that his life is in danger.
The cleric had alleged that some people were
threatening his life after he blasted President Goodluck Jonathan’s government
on New Year eve.
He had claimed that Mr. President Jonathan surrounded
himself with very corrupt public officials, hence he turned blind eye to their
corrupt activities while millions of Nigerians were suffering daily in abject poverty
and endless insecurity.
Mbaka made the declaration while delivering a
sermon tagged, “From Good luck to Bad luck” during the end-of-year Adoration
mass which held from night till dawn at the Adoration Ground, Emene, Enugu.
But reacting to the cleric alleged threat to his
life, Enugu state Police command, dismissed the claims as baseless insisting
that ‘if’ Mbaka’s life was in danger, he should have reported to the Police for
appropriate action.
Contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer,
Mr. Ebere Amaraizu,DSP, said, “We do not have any report by Fr. Mbaka over
threat to his life. We have not received any complaint from him.”
