Rev. Fr. Mbaka Cries Out For Help, Alleging That Jonathan and Patience Are After His Life.

 Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, calls on the security agencies to protect him following alleged threats on his life.
He asserted that President Goodluck Jonathan should be responsible, should anything happen to him.
The cleric has accused the President, and his wife, Dame Patience Jonathan, of being behind the alleged assassination plot.
According to Mbaka, Jonathan decided to kill him after he (Mbaka) preached against the President’s re-election in a New Year Eve message at the Adoration Ground titled ‘From Good Luck To Bad Luck’.
After alleging that Jonathan and Patience were planning to kill him in a recent sermon in his church, the cleric has now cried out for protection.
In his statement, which was titled ‘Jonathan Wants Me Dead Before The 2015 Elections’, Mbaka said the police had refused to act on the allegation he made.
The statement expressed concern at the insistence of the Enugu State Police Command that there was no report of any threat to Mbaka’s life.
Parts of the statement read, “It is with a deep sense of concern that we are constrained to make this statement on the continued threat to the life of Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka over his 2015 New Year message titled “From Good Luck to Bad Luck”.
“The Enugu State Police Command has refuted claims by Fr. Mbaka that his life is in danger.
“It dismissed Fr. Mbaka’s outcry over threat to his life as baseless.
“The Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Ebere Amarizu , DSP, said that they do not have any report by Fr. Mbaka over threat to his life. He mentioned that they have not received any complaint from him.”
“On the backdrop of the above, one begins to wonder whether the alarm raised by Fr. Mbaka on an alleged plot to kill him was a mere rhetoric as the police had made it to appear, merely because there has not been an official report to the police over it.
“Absence of a formal report on threat to one’s life doesn’t negate the reality of such threat more so when the victim had made a public outcry on this issue.
“To argue otherwise is akin to denying the fact of death in the face of a man’s corpse merely because there is no certificate certifying his death.
“Rev Fr. Mbaka had consistently in his public outings been raising the alarm over threat to his life and strange calls and messages threatening to assassinate him.
“The last of these was his assertion that assassins from the Presidency had been engaged to exterminate his life before the 28th March 2015 election.
