Catholic Church Disagrees With Father Mbaka.

The Catholic Church has washed its
hands off the ongoing controversy over
the strong criticism of President Goodluck
Jonathan by Rev Father Ejike Mbaka of
Adoration Ministries in Enugu, accusing
him of double-speaking.

The church said it did not authorise
Mbaka to speak on its behalf, insisting
that it is wrong for Mbaka to endorse the
president and later warn the electorate
not to vote for him during the February 14
presidential poll.

The church added that it did not have an
official position on whose candidate the
Catholic faithful should vote for, saying
that as the largest Christian group, it is
illogical for it to direct members to vote
for certain candidates as the voters have
the prerogative to exercise their
inalienable rights in such a situation.
