Former
President Goodluck Jonathan's aide, Reno Omokri has lashed out at
Reverend Fr. Ejike Mbaka for applauding President Muhammadu Buhari.
President Buhari and Fr. Mbaka
Pastor Reno Omokri, a former media aide to ex-President Goodluck
Jonathan, has sent a soul-searching message to popular Enugu-based
Catholic priest, Rev’d Fr. Ejike Mbaka, asking whether Mbaka was called
by God to defend hapless Nigerians or a president who has five aides and
a minister to speak for him.
Recall that earlier on Tuesday, the Spiritual Director of Adoration
Ministry Enugu, Mbaka was widely reported to have stated that President
Muhammadu Buhari was not to be blamed for the present economic
challenges in the country.
"Buhari is not the cause of hunger in the country; not the cause of starvation in Nigeria.
"The tap root of Nigeria’s economy has been cut; Buhari is just
trying to hold a rolling vehicle; a vehicle that the brakes have been
destroyed. So, Buhari is not the cause. If GEJ was the president today,
the situation would have been worse," Mbaka was quoted as saying.
But in the message to fiery Catholic priest, Omokri wrote:
"Dear Reverend Fr. Mbaka,
“The wife of an evangelist was beheaded-you kept quiet. Her
suspected killers were acquitted-you kept quiet. However, today you have
find your voice to defend President Muhammadu Buhari and condemn former
President Goodluck Jonathan.
“As a Reverend Father, were you called by God to speak for a
man who has 5 media aides and a minister of information all speaking for
him or were you called to speak for the poor and powerless children of
God who face injustice with no one speaking for them?”
