Buhari Hails Father Mbaka On 20-year Priesthood by dadaojames(m): 8:40pm On Jul 29, 2015
President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday showered encomium on Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka of the Adoration Centre on the occasion of his 20th year of priesthood.

In a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, the President commended the cleric for what he described as his “extraordinary intrepidity and remarkable patriotism.”

He described Mbaka as a great priest who is not afraid to speak truth, even at the cost of his own life or being hated by those in power.

He said the priest is a remarkable example that religious leaders are the conscience and moral compass of the society.

He said Mbaka rose to the occasion to add his voice in support of good governance and identify with ordinary Nigerians in the face of despair and uncertain future.

“Though honest opinions attract hostility from leaders detached from reality, history would be kind to Father Mbaka for courageously speaking truth to power, even at great risks,” the statement said.

Buhari, who said he was overwhelmed by Mbaka’s sincerity and patriotism, prayed to God to grant the priest more good health, long life and wisdom in the service of humanity.

The difference between Mbaka, Adeboye, Oyedepo, Oyakilome, TB.Joshua and other "men of God" is that unlike others, Mbaka does not play 2 folds, he stands for one things. You think it's easy to preach against a sitting Africam president in a community where the sitting president hs fans?
May you live long sir.

Very funny. Why won't he hail the only christian religious leader who stood alone by him when it seemed he would troll his normal path of failure.

Lesson: learn to position yourself with the winning team. Lol.
