Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has apologised to the Catholic Church within and outside Nigeria and Bishop Callistus Onaga of Enugu Diocese for the unruly behaviour of his adherents following reports of his “disappearance”.
Mbaka tendered the apology on Sunday at the Adoration Ground, Umuchigbo in Enugu East Local Government Area of Enugu State during a service.
“I go on my knees and apologise to the Catholic Church for everything that happened. If I have said something wrong, please forgive me. A lot of people want to put conflict between us, but what’s inside of me won’t allow it to succeed.
“I do not fight the Catholic Church. It cannot happen. All I have is the church. I have worked in the church for more than 25 years. Why should I start fighting it?”
It will be recalled that members of the AMEN had on May 5, attacked the residence of Bishop Onaga and vandalized the building following the absence of Mbaka at the weekly programme on the Adoration Ground. His followers feared he had been abducted.
But on Sunday, Mbaka went on his knees and apologised, saying “My Bishop and I are not arguing. There is no dispute between us”.
