We've Not Received Reports Of Threat To Fr Mbaka's Life --Police

The Enugu State Police command has refuted claims by Enugu-based
Catholic priest who is also the founder of Adoration Ministry, Enugu,
Rev. Father Camillus Ejike Mbaka, that his life is in danger.

The cleric had alleged that some people were threatening his life
after he blasted President Goodluck Jonathan's government on New Year
eve.

He had claimed that Mr. President Jonathan surrounded himself with
very corrupt public officials, hence he turned blind eye to their
corrupt activities while millions of Nigerians were suffering daily in
abject poverty and endless insecurity.

Mbaka made the declaration while delivering a sermon tagged, "From
Good luck to Bad luck" during the end-of-year Adoration mass which
held from night till dawn at the Adoration Ground, Emene, Enugu.

But reacting to the cleric alleged threat to his life, Enugu state
Police command, dismissed the claims as baseless insisting that 'if'
Mbaka's life was in danger, he should have reported to the Police for
appropriate action.

Contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Ebere
Amaraizu,DSP, said, "We do not have any report by Fr. Mbaka over
threat to his life. We have not received any complaint from him."
