Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka |
Not only is Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka claiming that the president and his
wife wants him dead but also he is accusing the police of not taking the
threat seriously. "It is with a deep sense of concern that we are
constrained to make this statement on the continued threat to the life
of Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka over his 2015 New Year message titled “From Good
Luck to Bad Luck.
The Enugu State Police Command has refuted claims by
Fr. Mbaka that his life is in danger. It dismissed Fr. Mbaka’s outcry
over threat to his life as baseless.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Ebere Amarizu , DSP said the police do not have any report by Fr. Mbaka over threat to his
life and have not received any complaint from him.
On the backdrop of the above, one begins to wonder whether the alarm
raised by Fr. Mbaka on an alleged plot to kill him was a mere rhetoric
as the police had made it to appear merely because there has not been an
official report to the police over it.
Absence of a formal report on threat to one’s life doesn’t negate the
reality of such threat more so when the victim had made a public outcry
on the issue.
To argue otherwise is akin to denying the fact of death in the face of a
man’s corpse merely because there is no certificate certifying his
death. Reports has it that on Wednesday, strange hoodlums in a black Hilux besieged his
parish compound but they left disappointed when they could not see him.
