Father Mbaka Missing
Reverend Father Ejike Mbaka has reportedly gone missing, Daily Report Nigeria has learnt.
Concerns about fiery Enugu-based priest’s whereabouts were raised on Wednesday by the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, OYC.
The spiritual leader of the Adoration Ministry, Enugu, has been in the news in recent times, asking President Muhammadu Buhari to resign or face impeachment.

Mbaka’s outburst was greeted by a response from the Presidency, who accused the fiery Priest of speaking out of bitterness because his demands for contracts from the government was not granted.
Father Mbaka replied the Presidency with more facts about his visit to the Aso Villla during his homily on Sunday.
However, the Ohanaeze Youth Council has now feared Father Mbaka missing.
In a statement issued by it’s President-General, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike, the OYC said Mbaka was last seen on Tuesday, adding that every effort to trace him had failed.
“We have it on good authority that his aides have neither seen nor heard from him since Tuesday.
“Calls put to his mobile line have also remained unanswered; this has now prompted us to issue this alarm as we would not take it lightly should anything untoward happens to him.
“We are giving the Federal Government 48 hours to produce the priest, else they should be ready to face Igbo youths. They were dining and wining with him all along and now that he told the truth, they are no longer comfortable with him.
“Let nothing happen to Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka. It will not be in anybody’s interest,” the group warned.
“Today is the Wednesday programme, ‘E no dey again’, if he doesn’t officiate, it will then be clear that something is wrong,” one of them said.
Meanwhile, attempts by news men to ascertain the true nature of events proved abortive as close allies of the clergyman had no knowledge of what the situation truly is.
