There had been reports in the media claiming that Mbaka predicted that the President’s chance of surviving an ear infection was slim.
President Buhari, just last month, undertook a journey to England to seek medical help for an ear infection.
The report in the media had claimed that Mbaka predicted the negative prophesy for Buhari during one of his adoration programmes just after the President traveled.
Reacting to the reports however, in a statement signed by his media adviser, Ike Ugwuoke, Mbaka denied making any negative prophecy on the health of the president as was reported.
He said he only made his comments in response to the observations of Nigerian doctors.
The statement partly read, “Our attention has been drawn to a report in a section of the media alleging that Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, the Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Nigeria, said that President of the Federal Republic Muhammadu Buhari, had slim chances of surviving from his ill health.”
“The truth is that there were media reports, making fuss about Mr. President’s health and insinuating Mr. President’s slim chances of recovering from his ill health, published immediately the President went on vacation.”
“Fr. Mbaka referring to the said media report during his prayers for the sick in the Ministry, led his congregation to pray for Mr. President’s healing and health, after which there were lots of testimonies from the sick that were healed of blindness, elephantiasis, deafness, cancer, tumor and all other diverse healings at the end of the prayer session.”
The reverend father further said that it was obvious some people were out to cause bad blood between him and the President.
“While we enjoin all patriotic citizens of this country to continue to pray for the good of the nation and her leaders, we restate our call on the meddlesome interlopers who busy themselves with arm-twisting issues arising from the Ministry for whatever ends to desist from their wild goose chase, have a rethink and rather partake in the blessings imminent in spreading the good news of signs, wonders and miracles of God in the Ministry”, the statement said.
