A Stingy Man Can’t Be Nigeria’s President, Mbaka Tells Peter Obi

Catholic Priest and founder of Adoration Ministry Enugu, Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka, says Peter Obi is a stingy man and cannot be Nigeria’s President.

He spoke during a prayer service at his church in Enugu on Wednesday.

Obi, a former Governor of Anambra State, is the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in next year’s presidential election.

He would be contesting against the likes of Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Mbaka, while addressing his members, said Obi was a man without a generous spirit, adding that “a gum-holder” would not be accepted a Nigerian leader.

“It is better to have a president who is a gifted old man than a young man with ‘gum’ hands.”

According to him, former Vice President Abubakar Atiku had shown that he is ready to run for office because he and Peter Obi are no longer on a joint ticket.

“Peter Obi has a mouthful, he has nowhere to go unless he kneels down on the Adoration altar.”

He accused the presidential candidate of the Labour Party of insulting the holy spirit.

Mbaka claimed that he helped Obi return to the governorship seat in Anambra State, “but he did not come to thank God”.

“Who doesn’t spend his money eating what you want to support? Do you want people to starve? If he becomes president, he will close our ministry. If Igbo people are looking for a representative in Nigeria, not the kind of person Peter Obi is.”

“Whoever refuses to donate to the church should be the president?”

He said that was how Obi left the APGA and joined the PDP, despite all the support that the late Odumegwu Ojukwu gave to him to become governor.

Mbaka said, “I (Peter Obi) started with Ojukwu, in the middle of the night you released Ojukwu, released Igbo is Igbo, released APGA, joined the PDP. He has now defected to the Labor Party, and his pregnancy is over. You know that there is nothing that students hate about ‘labour, everyone supports labour. If he takes this position from APGA, we know he has people to replace him.”

In 2018, Mbaka had predicted defeat for the PDP presidential candidate in the 2019 general election, Atiku and his running mate, Obi, following the latter’s refusal to donate to his church project.
