Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, the Spiritual Director of the Adoration Ministry Enugu, Nigeria, emphasized that the people of Enugu state do not require a cultist as their next governor in 2023.
During Sunday Holy Mass at the Adoration Ground, Emene, the Catholic priest made this known as former Minister of Power, Prof Bart Nnaji, who is vying for the governorship under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, sought his spiritual blessings.
He appealed, emphasizing the need for a competent, visionary, and godly leader devoid of any affiliation with terrorism or cultism to maintain peace in the state.
While praying for the former Minister, Mbaka mentioned that his ministry had been praying for Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi to support a candidate that would sustain peace in the State after him.
Mbaka, who claimed to have no preferred candidate, also assured Nnaji of his blessings, describing him as a “great son of Enugu State and a power generator.”
