He acquired his nickname Ebube Muonso, 'Glory of the Holy Ghost', in seminary.

Career
After a brief period as a relief priest at St. Dominic's Catholic Church in Uke, Obimma was made a vicar at St. Charles Borromeo parish in Onitsha. Conflict with the parish priest led him to found Holy Ghost Adoration Ministry in Uke. the ministry is the largest in Onitsha diocese, draws thousands of worshippers, and in addition to charity, employs almost 20,000 people in schools and factories. After three years as a vicar, Obimma was then appointed the first priest of the new Blessed Iwene Tansi parish in Umudioka, on its creation in 2014–15.

His ministry includes signs and wonders, and his prayers have been reported to be efficacious, including claims of healings. He has preached against violent cultists in the state, and credits God's protection for his surviving multiple assassination attempts by armed gangs.

In 2017 there were reports of a rivalry between Ebube Muonso and an older priest, Father Mbaka, founder of Adoration Ministries in Enugu. Followers of each have called the other a false prophet. He later denied that there was any conflict between the two.
