Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka of Adoration Ministry in Enugu state, yesterday stated that his life was in danger following the controversial sermon he gave on New Year's eve.
According to the Sun newspaper, the pastor said he was however unfazed by the death threats.
He said: “Tell them I am not afraid of them. I have said what I was asked to say. The only word I have for them is Isaiah 54:15,17: “Surely they shall gather, but because the gathering is not of God, they shall scatter. No weapon fashioned against me shall prosper.”
“They said Buhari gave me money, but I have never met with Buhari. I don’t know him in person. I only delivered the message I was given and I stand by that message because the future of this country is bleak with Jonathan on the saddle.”
The Rev. Fr. also said that before he even gave the December 31 message, he had called President Jonathan's wife repeatedly, but he couldn't get through to her:
“When she came here, I told her to give me her number so that I could give her messages, but thrice she refused. It was later she told one of the pastors with her to give me his number. “
“So, before that message, I had called the number for two weeks but it was always the Personal Assistant to the pastor that picked the calls."
