According to BBC Pidgin, Mbaka told his congregation that the Bishop later allowed him to go and address the protesting crowd who had flooded the streets of Enugu over the allegation that he was missing.

He noted that things would have got out of hand if he was not within Enugu to quickly show up and address the protesters.

Mbaka expressed gratitude that the protest had not turned violent before he was able to show up to calm the nerves of the protesters.

In its reportage of the incident, The Cable cited Mbaka as saying that he was summoned over his recent comments concerning Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), and his connection to the presidency.

He said the church leadership told him he would remain indoors for a period of one month to enable him pray and meditate over his activities.
