According to PremiumTimes, the clip has continued to elicit reactions across Nigeria’s south-east, a region with a high population of Christians.
Mbaka criticised the trend of using divine messages for monetary purposes, labeling it “money mining.”
He emphasized the negative impact on families and urged those seeking fame and fortune to pursue other avenues.
Mbaka then stirred controversy when he said some of the clerics often visit his ministry, take a photograph with him and subsequently use the photograph to open churches and deceive people.
Who is Ebuka Obi?
After the clip went viral, many suggested that the cleric must have been referring to a popular prophet, Ebuka Obi.
Obi, the founder of Zion Prayer Movement Outreach, had been a close ally of Fr Mbaka, before establishing his ministry in 2009.
Mbaka, however, clarified that he did not mention specific names but warned against staged prophecies.
