Opinion: Prophet Bushiri’s tricks is soon over…

But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves” (2. Peter 2:1, New International Version).

Yesterday, was a day where one who has been unbelievable, one that had visions so marvellous and done stunts in way; that many of us couldn’t imagine. This happens to be the Prophet Shepard Bushiri of Malawi, the Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG), who is based in South Africa, but has branches in Zimbabwe, South Korea and Malawi. The man that claims that he has brought over 2 million people to Christ.

However, there are other stories that shows what sort of man this is. As he has bought three private planes. Bought a Masarati for his daughters birthday. That is just minor things, but what hit him yesterday. Isn’t his wealth and his followers donating cash into the Money Pit of the Prophet.

No, yesterday was the day, where the South African HAWKS arrested him and his wife on charges of Money Laundering. In November 2018, there was already speculations of a Half Billion Rand Scandal with the Prophet in the midsts of it. In the reporting from November, there was reports that the Prophet tried to bribe the State Officers to quash the criminal cases on him. That has no happen, as we have hit February 2019 and the HAWKS got enough on him to charge him.

Surely, the Prophet should have prayed so that God could have again appeared in his dream. To warn him about the HAWKS and the direct actions. So, that he could disappear in time and also not be in legal trouble, as he is lingering in jail until Monday, when he will appear in Court answering on the charges.

Maybe, the Prophet should have tried to do the trick of walking into thin-air and sway away from the officers. Apparently, he has had enough money to go through his businesses and churches. So, that the state could prosecute this and charge him. There already proof of illegal activity, as he was sentenced by his Shepard Bushiri Investment (PTY) Limited, where the corporation did an exchange, which the company wasn’t licensed to do. That was done about December 2016 until December 2017. At that time, because of this, the company of the Prophet got a fine of R 50,000 on the 13th August 2018.

This is from the same prophet that is known for taking R 5,000 for personal meetings. So, surely the Prophet just needed ten naive followers to pay-up to be prayed for, before being able to pay the courts back then.

Now, certainly the Prophet is in bigger trouble. The HAWKS can surely figure this out and have the tangible evidence of the money laundering and the illegal activity from the Prophet. The way he has made money is selling “anointing oil” for a small fortune. That he has displayed with cars and private planes, as previously mentioned.

Therefore, many was wondering how he could grow his wealth, as his mission and international tours has persisted. Bushiri are now in the spotlight and has been flagged by the HAWKS.

He could fake a lot things, but he cannot fake the transactions, the illegal money laundering or anything else the state has charged him with. He is not untouchable and now been touched by law enforcement.

He can pray in the cell for redemption, for salvation or for legal help. Whatever is coming for him, is a storm that he cannot control. This over R 16m dating back to 2015. However, there might be more, if they peel the onion. Because as I found out, there been other court cases and even unlicensed exchanges, that the Prophet was not allowed to do.

So, certainly, he will catch a break from making sermons and walking into the thin-air. Maybe, he will sell less anointing oil this year. Peace.

Opinion: Mnangagwa stop blaming the West, it is all you!

I’m getting furious about lies, about blatant lies by the ones in power. Just reading the headlines, that the West is sponsoring the violence in the Zimbabwe Shutdown. Is foolish at best. What is worst, is that the West are already donating hard-earned currency to his government through the Zimbabwe Reconstruction Fund (ZIMREF). Maybe the West should stop doing that? Since they are for the blame for all the violence?

President Emmerson Mnangagwa, we know you have been cosy with Eastern European Republics, where you hanged out in Russia, Belarus and so on. These relations are both for mineral exploitation, but also to upgrade your military. Therefore, you casting stones at the West is really catching a nerve.

Just like the ruling regime is always investigating Movement for Democratic Change – Alliance (MDC-A). They are doing the crimes, however, just like in the past. The Opposition Party doesn’t have the power over the army and neither the Police. Therefore, the ones ordering the soldiers and police officers whose done the crimes, are the ones who are serving the President and not the civilians. There are civilian looting, which is wrong. All theft is wrong. By all means, that is why the killings, the rapes and destruction done by state officers against own citizens is really appalling.

That the ruling party, Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Frong (ZANU-PF) have used the army and police this way, that they have turned of the internet, assaulted the public, intimidated and hurt civilians. That they have sent soldiers doors-to-doors in some towns. Therefore, the idea that the West sponsored this. Is very likely insane and FAKE NEWS.

Mnangagwa knows this, by all means, he has to be the victim. He is always innocent. Like a newborn baby. President Mnangagwa, the Crocodile, is the innocent, the closest human being to Christ. He is the saviour and the one that shield the world from evil. Alas, that is not the case. He has the power. To stop the violence, the state sponsored insecurity and the crisis itself. Stop the atrocities and also the orders, where the state officers are acting with impunity.

To many innocent people have died because this, to many has served time and gotten charged because the state fears them. They are picking people and singling them out. They are maybe able to silence some of the news, but the ones that is coming out. Is dire, is the reality of a state of fear and intimidation. Where the state are misusing its power and paying the loyalists.

This a tactic of deflection, that it is outer forces supporting the inner-troubles. That it is all outside, who has tarnished the economy, that has ensured the fuel-crisis and everything else. That should be known, that is self created issues, that the ZANU-PF has made on their own. Therefore, it is easy to pin it on the outside, instead of throwing stones on fellow comrades. Who is issuing the mess and the armed forces on civilians.

This has gone from being MDC-A, to being people stealing fatigue and uniforms, to MDC-A, to now being the West. It is never ZANU-PF or any of their comrades. Because just like Mnangagwa, they are innocent babies, they are innocent and do no evil. That is just what me and everyone does, but not the ZANU-PF. They cannot harm or do anything bad, Mnangagwa is saying that, without saying it.

Mnangagwa, while you blame the West, should the West stop dropping dimes on your government? Peace.

Opinion: ED clearly needs a brigade to give him some advice!

President Emmerson Mnangagwa in midst of a burning republic. Where the soldiers and the police officers on the ground are violating peoples rights, where the Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF) is using all tools at their disposal to silence critics, union leaders and arch opposition leaders in the Movement for Democratic Change – Alliance (MDC-A).

Clearly, he needs help and guidance, because the strikes, the rising inflation, the lack of currency and off fuel is persisting. While the systemic defects are not fixed, while the ordinary citizen is suffering in poverty and in fear. Because, the Police have arrested people for alleged looting for just being sweaty in the streets. Therefore, the state is already overboard, as the rapes, the mischief of arbitrary arrests and putting opposition leaders and MPs behind bars.

As this follows, there is now a leak of 24-member Presidential Advisory Council (PAC) with all sort of elite and cronies. Former MPs and Former Ministers of the ZANU-PF put there to shine a light on the President and give him advice in the hour of need.

With the Cabinet that the President already has, which Ministers and Deputy Ministers, also regional ministers and the ones in the Office of Vice-President. By my count of the official amount of Minister to give the President advice and well-known information on a sector in government, with the appointed people in September 2018 it was by my estimate about 46 people there. Which are ministers and public officials, who could help a brother in need. This are people who the President already trust and acknowledge to give them a portfolio in government. Therefore, the manpower and finesse, he should already have.

So, today’s leak of Council of 24 more surplus heads to gather intelligence and wisdom for the President. Seems more like luxurious expense and securing people tenure, another fixed income and base for livelihood, than initial need by the President. He already has a full cabinet of about 20 Ministers, than a bunch of Deputy Ministers and also two in the Office of VP. Therefore, he has no direct need for this.

The names and people on the list isn’t important now, they are cronies and pro-ED as is. They are being paid-off and secured by the state. Because, they wouldn’t get this appointed position without perks, benefits and state salary. It would be foolish to think these people would do this on Charity and actually show-up to guide the President without getting something out of it.

We know also, the document is marked confidential, except for the list of people, this sentence alone is striking: “They should be non-partisan and will serve at the pleasure of the President”. I see that as an impossible feat. I don’t know how they will possible be non-partisan and also serve the man. That is like: “We will be independent, but we cannot bite the hand that feed us”. It is sort of the same arrangement. That is configured idea, that is not working. Not here or anywhere on this planet of ours.

This is the double cabinet, the special hand-picked advisers of the President and his cronies. There is nothing else to it.

Just another bill, another pay-off and securing more YES-MEN for the President. Peace.
