Ejike Mbaka, spiritual director of Adoration Ministry Enugu Nigeria (AMEN), has alleged that there is a plot to murder him after he was summoned by the Catholic Diocese of Enugu in May 2021. Mbaka disclosed this when he addressed worshippers at the Adoration ground in Enugu on Saturday during his New Year message. He recounted that in May, some residents of Enugu took to the streets to protest over the whereabouts of Mbaka who was alleged to be missing. The priest later resurfaced and said he was summoned by Callistus Onaga, bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Enugu, who wanted to shut his ministry over his recent comments concerning Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), and his connection to the presidency. Father Mbaka, said the plotters were also planning to frame him using prostitutes. He claimed that the plot was to kidnap him and drag him through a spot where prostitutes reside in Enugu, after which he would be recorded naked.
He explained that they planned to carryout the plot after he left a meeting with Bishop Onaga.
The priest recounted how Onaga directed him to shut down his Adoration ministry in Enugu for one-month and embark on a retreat.
He said the Bishop cautioned him against meddling in politics.
According to Mbaka: “I didn’t know I was being tracked that night. Before the next day you people started searching for me.
“Their plan was to capture me that night and drag me to Cubana (Hotel) and take me to Mobil where prostitutes stay and then take me around (there) and then, show video of me in the place (Brothel) so that people would ask what Mbaka was searching for in brothel.
“Then, they will again, drag me to Igboeze, another spot for Prostitutes. That’s where they planned to naked themselves, not me. So, then people would begin to ask what I am doing naked in prostitutes’ spot. Then, they will take me to Abuja and the story will be much, they will kill themselves, not me.”
