Sundowns star Tiyani Mabunda thanks Bushiri after man-of-the match award

Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Tiyani Mabunda paid homage to the South African based Malawian famous  prophet Shepherd Bushiri during a man of the match award interview on Saturday.

Mabunda earned the award after putting in a stellar performance for his side in Saturday’s 0-0 draw that saw them lift the Absa Premiership title for the 2017/18 season.

Mabunda thanked God for bringing the ‘Major 1’ Bushiri  into his life.

“First of all I would like to honour the grace of my father major prophet Bushiri.”

Beekay Selahle tweeted: “Tiyani Mabunda is always thanking the major one Bushiri.”

In December, shortly after scoring a screamer against the same team, Mabunda brandished his Adidas soccer boot with the words “God of Major1”.

Mabunda is an avid follower of the Enlightened Christian Gathering Church of Bushiri.
