Must read

Speaking with newsmen after the SOCEF meeting in Enugu, the forum stated that Rev Fr. Mbaka’s declaration comes out from his personal opinion and not the directives of the Holy Spirit.

Bishop David Eberechukwu, the chairman of the forum stated that Rev Mbaka has the history of making false claims and misguiding the people in the name of the Holy Spirit.

“In 2003, he said that then Governor Chimaroke Nnamani would not get re-election and that if that happens, he would remove his cassock; indeed, Chimaroke was re-elected and up till today, he has not removed his cassock.

“So, his message is just a personal opinion; it didn’t come from the impulse of the Holy Spirit,” he stated.

The Forum which reached a ten-point communiqué articulated that President Goodluck Jonathan should be allowed to complete a second tenure on behalf of the South-South zone for the sake of equity and fairness,

“We note that the South-West zone has occupied the seat of the presidency of this country for eight years, from 1999-2007. It was on the basis of principle of rotation that the next President of the Federal Republic came from the North-West. If the cold hands of death had not taken him away from us, that occupant of the presidency from the North-West would have been elected for a second term.

The meeting was attended by religious stakeholders, Archbishops, Bishops and other Christian leaders from the South-West, South-South and the South-East.
