I can't keep quiet, there is poverty everywhere!

I can’t keep quiet, There’s Poverty
Everywhere – Father Mbaka Tells
Buhari
Popular Catholic priest and
Spiritual Head of Adoration
Ministry, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has warned President Muhammad Buhari that Nigerians may not vote for him in 2019 if he does not address the high level of hunger and suffering in the country.
Mbaka has been one of Buhari’s
supporters since he asked Nigerians to reject Goodluck Jonathan of the PDP during the 2015 presidential pool and predicted Buhari’s victory.
But, in a surprising turn of events,
Mbaka cried out on behalf of many Nigerians who are suffering. In a new message obtained, Father Mbaka noted
that there was too much suffering in the country, and faulted the President for not appointing the right people.
He also accused the President of
listening to the wrong advice.
He said, “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.” Continuing, the Priest said, “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..; let them begin to
empower people, people are not
empowered, they are still walking
around in vicious circles, planning and planning and planning.” Mbaka said there were no spaces left in mortuaries across the country.
“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?” “So, the President should sit up – there is a red light blinking on the country… We need economic experts, gurus, sages that are sincere, who can come in and think about our economic revamp.”
