Father Mbaka made the condemnation in Enugu on Saturday in a sermon at his Adoration Ministry.
The pastor warns the agitators: “Locking up your shops and disrupting economic activities will not add any Naira to your pocket, whatever grievance you have could be resolved through dialogue.”
He urged youths in the South East and South-South to go back to their business as the protest could lead to their death. He lambasted those leaders that were behind the agitation and protests, saying that they should use their children for the misguided protests.
Mbaka commended President Muhammadu Buhari for appointing ministers from the zone and assigning them with good portfolios.
“President Buhari’s action has proven that the South East has not been marginalized. I would have reacted if no minister emerged from the zone,” he said.
He said that the five states in the zone had minister each as prescribed by the Nigerian constitution as well as other key security and protocol officers that serves under the president and his wife.
“President Buhari is not the cause of poor roads, unemployment and other decay infrastructures in the south east, we should blame our leaders. Most of the roads had been awarded but our leaders squandered the fund, even the university teaching hospital in Enugu is a no-go-area and our leaders are not concerned about it,” he stressed.
Mbaka called on the new Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige, to use his office to create employment for youths in the zone, adding that it would stop what he called another Boko Haram.
