Jubilation As Mbaka Resumes At Adoration Ministry After Suspension

VOICE AIR MEDIA

THE Spiritual Director of the Adoration Ministry Enugu, Nigeria (AMEN), Father Ejike Mbaka, on Wednesday, returned to the Adoration ground in Enugu State.

VAM recalls that the Church was closed down around June 2022, after the Catholic Diocese of Enugu banned Mbaka from commenting on political issues.

Upon reopening, the Church turned the ministry into Chaplaincy – to monitor the excesses in it.

In October 2022, the Catholic Bishop of Enugu Diocese, Most Rev. Callistus Onaga, transferred Mbaka from chaplaincy to the monastery.

Consequently, Rev. Fr. Anthony Amadi was named to replace him (Mbaka) as the new chaplain of the Adoration Ministry.

Following Fr. Mbaka’s return on Wednesday morning, there was excitement in Enugu.

Hundreds of his supporters trooped out to welcome the cleric.

Mbaka’s supporters marched alongside a vehicle conveying him to Adoration Ground in Umuchigbo Nike, causing a traffic gridlock along old Emene – Abakaliki road.

The jubilant ‘Adorers’ as his supporters are fondly called were seen dancing along the road.
