APC condemns Mbaka’s transfer by Enugu Catholic Diocese
In a statement released today January 31st, the spokesperson of the APC South-East zone, Osita Okechukwu, condemned Mbaka's transfer and alleged that the leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo influenced Mbaka’s transfer to a new parish where he will serve under someone else.
“It was wrong to punish the fearless priest for his prophecies which has proved to be from God. Whereas we accept that the transfer of priests is a routine exercise of the great Catholic Church, however we do not wholly accept a situation where the church allows external forces to influence transfer as the Mbaka’s case suggests. Otherwise, future liberation clergy who speak truth to power will be hamstrung to the detriment of the society. Our major concern is the security implications and the fate of his flocks who are mostly the downtrodden who may find it difficult to go to Emene for salvation and healing. We frown at anything which will put Fr. Mbaka in harms way or deny his flocks healing. As a party, we have watched with concern and trepidation the criticism, the attack, assault and unpleasant comments hurled against Fr. Mbaka since he providentially prophesied that President Buhari would win the 2015 elections. Even the Church did not spare him, he was called unprintable names, yet his prophecy came true. We are happy that Fr. Mbaka was vindicated. It must be pointed out that accusing fingers were pointed at the direction of some anti-Buhari elements like Ohanaeze Ndigbo, a group that didn’t want to hear the name of Buhari , even though Ohanaeze denied the allegation, doubts still persists. For we are still at a loss why a senior priest will be degraded to an assistant parish priest. We repeat that we are in solidarity with Fr. Mbaka and our major concern is the security of Fr. Mbaka and the suffering of his flocks mostly the poor who need his healing powers. We had thought that His Lordship Bishop Calistus Onaga could have retained him at the Adoration Ground, as the Bishop Emeritus Gbuji did because of security of his life and easy access by his flocks” he said.

Sunday Oliseh Close To Being Sacked By NFF, See Why
There are reports that as a result of the awful Super Eagles performance at the ongoing Africa Nations Championship (CHAN), Nigeria’s head coach Sunday Oliseh may be sacked any moment from now.
Hints gotten from a reliable source shows that the recurrent poor result by the Sunday Oliseh-led Super Eagles may force the federation to part with the former Juventus defensive midfielder.
Just after the CHAN exit, it was reported that Oliseh, in an interview with a popular radio station, portrayed the football body and the government in bad light, a situation the leadership of the NFF frowned at, and could consequently dismiss the tactician.
It was however disclosed that unless there is a last minute change, Samson Siasia, who is currently the head coach of the Under 23 Dream Team VI Eagles may be drafted to manage the Super Eagles temporarily while Emmanuel Amuneke would be assisting.
Oliseh has been at the receiving end as the Nigerian team continue to slide-down the FIFA world ranking table.
Under the former team captain, the Super Eagles have played 7 competitive games winning 3, drawing 3 and losing 1. He equally managed the team in 5 friendly games winning 3, drawing 1 and losing 1.
Meanwhile, as the Super Eagles returned to the country without coach Sunday Oliseh, it was disclosed that the 41-year-old no longer feel safe being in Nigeria.
Recall that all through the team’s camping for CHAN 2016 in Abuja, he refused to show up but was the first to hit South Africa for the second phase of camping in Pretoria.
However, the Nigeria Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) claimed that the team coach departed Rwanda for his base to continue with treatment for the flu he has been battling with since last year.

ISIS propaganda video shows a French-speaking militant executing men accused of spying
A new video released on Saturday, January 30 by the Islamic State
group in Iraq shows a French-speaking militant executing five men
accused of being US spies. According to AFP, the militant also reportedly
threatened attacks against Western countries.
The video, which was posted on several jihadi websites, shows young
men admitting to have acted against ISIS militants before being shot
dead. The
video was produced by the ISIS media office in Iraq’s Nineveh province
and was reportedly made after the Paris attack.
In the eight-minute video, the French-speaking militant, who is seen
wearing a beige mask and carrying a handgun, brands the U.S.-led
coalition fighting ISIS in Syria and Iraq “imbecile miscreants” and
warns that the efforts by Western nations will fail to destroy the
group.
The militant also vowed that ISIS will conduct more deadly attacks
against the West. Among the Western nations, the militant made a
reference to Spain,
saying that the country will “pay dearly” for having crushed Muslim rule
in ancient Andalusia — more than 500 years ago.
At the end of the video, the French-speaking militant and other ISIS
fighters shoot dead five men wearing orange jumpsuits.
