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.”

The Nigerian police under Jonathan has shown that they can only serve anybody that speaks in favour of Jonathan . They should investigate the threat than dismissing it.
