Mbaka tells President Buhari if things continue in Nigeria like this, nobody will vote for him in 2019

 Enugu-based Catholic Priest, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, says President Buhari may not be voted in for a second term come 2019 if the suffering the masses are experiencing continues. In a message he preached in his church recently, Father Mbaka who had always supported President Buhari against his predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan, said if President Buhari has someone like him and he is not talking to him, then there is a problem;

“The issue is that Mbaka is speaking as the Spirit leads him – there is hunger everywhere. My job is to tell leaders the truth, the landlords are crying, the tenants are lamenting, sellers are crying, buyers are lamenting. There is hunger on the streets. I can’t keep quiet when things are going wrong. I am telling the President to look around him and know those who are advising him rightly and those who are telling him that there is no trouble. The President should know that there is trouble. If things continue like this, in the next election, nobody will vote for him. Whether they like it or not, I am speaking the raw truth. If the President should have somebody like me and he cannot be talking with me, then there is a problem. There is a problem somewhere; somebody who can advise you without asking for anything and he is representing the poor masses in the country and he won’t tell you lies. He will praise you when you are doing well and when you are not doing well, he will look at you in the face and tell you. I don’t need the President; I need God, I need the Holy Spirit. I need Jesus. There is suffering everywhere, people are suffering. To feed is now a problem, and an hungry man is an angry man. Hunger and anger will lead to danger. So, let him know whether he can do away with some advisers around him and bring in the people who are experts in economic revamp. There are people who are experts in that. Let them begin to empower people, people are not empowered, they are still walking around in vicious circles, planning and planning and planning. Hunger is everywhere, many neighbours don’t eat again, many are being attacked by hunger, hunger is becoming a normal thing and there are people responsible for this. Mortuary and ambulance business is now thriving because many cannot afford drugs. In today’s Nigeria, many are becoming hawkers, who will buy from you, with what? Everyday, more pipelines are being blown, the Avengers are at work and up till now, there is no solution"he said
