The Spiritual Director, Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka has shut the ministry’s premises for 30 days following a directive from the Catholic Bishop of Enugu Diocese, Most Rev. Callistus Onaga.
Mbaka made the announcement in a Tuesday statement, saying it was to enable him to embark on a private prayer retreat that would end on 10th of June, 2021.
The fiery preacher had earlier disclosed that Onaga ordered him to leave Adoration ground, Parish House and be on silence for 30 days.
This followed the destruction of the bishop’s residence by followers of Mbaka over the alleged detention of the fiery preacher in Onaga’s residence last week.

However, the statement did not state if the temporary shutdown was in obedience to the bishop’s directive.
“Our Spiritual Director, Rev Fr Ejike Mbaka wishes to inform his beloved adorers that he has embarked on a private prayer retreat that will end on 10th June 2021.
“Consequently, no ministry activities shall be held in the ministry ground pending his return. He directs that members of the ministry are to observe this period of his retreat as they used to do during the usual January breaks of the ministry, by praying at their homes, being charitable and fasting according to their ability.
“Adoration! Holy Spirit is our Power,” the statement read.
