Bushiri sending back Malawians working for him in South Africa
Prophet Shepherd Bushiri is sending back some Malawians working for him in South Africa and also cut on Malawi charity programmes, Nyasa Times understands.
Bushiri who is leader of Enlightened Christian Gathering’s (ECG), one of the fastest rising in Southern Africa and runs number of business firms , is said to have come to such a position after observing a series of continued attacks from Malawians despite his benevolence.
Uncomfirmed reports indicate that Bushiri feels under appreciated for all the great things he does for his country and his people .
Apart from the normal charity programmes in Malawi, the man of God helps tens of thousands of Malawians in South Africa with small loans, job opportunities at the church, school fees, monthly stipends, help during funeral and sickness.
Asked to confirm the development, Bushiri’s commumication director Ephraim Nyondo said he is yet to get an official position but his office is currently advising the Prophet to reconsider his benevolence on Malawians.
Nyondo retorted at Nyasa Times for “fishing out on negative publicity” against the prophet.
“Prophet Bushiri is doing so much for Malawi. However, its shocking to note how, instead of being celebrated, he is attacked and slewed like a criminal.
“A lof of people here in South Africa come to him for help. He literally subsists so many. Nobody talks about it, even Nyasa Times and other media don’t write about it. But when something wrong happens to these people, all the blame goes on him. Why?” said Nyondo.
“The death of James Nee, Beston and Brain is a case in point. Prophet Bushiri only knew James [the church worshipper]. The other two were neither employed by the church nor had a special connection with the church. They were just members of the church.
“But when an accident happened, Prophet Bushiri took the responsibility of meeting every rising cost. Instead of being appreciated for it, people from Malawi are leading in attacking him. Is this fair?
“When he gives maize, he is blamed for missing albinos. When he gives money to national football team, he is blamed for causing deaths. When he helps people with fees, he is blamed. Really?
“He is also a human being. He feels pains. He feels bad. That is why my office is advising him to cut back on Malawians.”
Nyondo further said: “We really want him to concetrate on countries and people that appreciates his benevolence. He should be cutting back on Malawi. I think this is best thing he can do now.”
Bushiri on Saturday missed the wedding of his in-law and gospel rapper Gwamba to Mukondi in Lilongwe as he was mourning the death of church worshipper James Nee and his friends.
He visited the family of Nee in Lilongwe to mourn with them and conducted a comfort service.
Despite criticism he has been gettion social media platforms, discrediting him as a false prophet and a satanist – the negative tags mostly attached to any successful Malawian- Malawi government is now embracing Prophet Bushiri and President Peter Mutharika delegated Justice Minister Samuel Tembenu to represent him at the cleric’s recent crusade at Bingu National Stadium in Lilongwe.
Tembenu said President Mutharika is “exceedingly delighted” with Bushiri’s ministry work.
He added that President Mutharika also appreciated Prophet Bushiri’s humanitarian work in the country.
The Justice and Constitutional Affairs Minister said Malawi government shall always protect the right of religious bodies and institutions to practice their religion freely and without let or hindrance.

BUSHIRI DID NOT COME TO MALAWI TO CONDOLE THE BEREAVED FAMILIES WHY? Nyasatimes answer on his behalf now
SOLDIER ON THE BATTLE IS NOT YET OVER !!
Cash crisis iyi. Osanamizira zimenezo ayi. Just indicate kuti cash flow siiri bwino so you are cutting on costs. This is normal to any business. It attracts revenue at first then the business starts to decline. And this being a church built on lies it cannot survive the test of time.
Don’t stop doing good, if the people don’t recognized your help and love.God has seen your heart
WHATEVER A MAN OF GOD DOES WILL BE APPRECIATED BY GOD. .MPHOTO ILI KUMWAMBA OSATI PANSI PANO.
Masiku omaliza,,tikhale ochenjela ngati njoka
We are told this is not the official position but advice being given to Mr Bushiri. I doubt that this advice has been adopted as it does not sit well with his other actions.
munthu wa mulungu satopa. akudandaula kunenedwa anzake yesu anakwapulidwa mpaka pa mtanda.. anthu ochimwa apempherereni..
How do you mean “you have done a lot for Malawi” ?
Bushiri is not seeking praises
He is only saying zomwe a Malawi amamunena pomwe he only delivers good to them
Mtundu wathu ndiwokanika. Akayamba kunena zamabodza, kuyipitsa za munthu amachita kupatsirana ngati chipako.. Wopanda woleletsa. Mchifukwa sititukuka tadzala mtima yoyipa
Mukamawerenga bible mumapanga criticise phareeses . Simukusiyana olo pang ono
If it was today yesu akanachulukitsa mkate ndi nsomba pamalawi pano mukanadya? Satanic eti?
Mkamwa mwa nsomba kutengmo ndalama, satanic?
Ambuye Yesu anati mudzapanga zoposa izi
Woyenera kumuyikira red carpet pakati pa president wadziko ndi yemwe watenga anointing of God ndindani?
Am not Bushiris church member Koma a Malawi mmmmmm its too much
Kuyambira mpingo zipani, school, mmaplot, mmbanja khalidwe lofanana losakhala bwino mabodza nsanje, miseche inde may ikon ena zili ko Koma kuno zanyanya
You can say this again and again, Mtundu ovuta uwu waMalawi. Too much jelousy, kaduka, NSANJE ndi imeme ikuvuta pa Malawi.
Thats why even in our national anthem, jelousy is considered to be one of our enemies. Malawians are full of jelous pipo. u cant do anything good and be priased. Even during jesus’s time, jesus drove out demons and those who claimed to know God(the pharesees) said HE got his power from satan…Beelzebul. Malawians sitifunirana zabwino
Ife a ku banja la a Gondwe sititha kuyankha pa nthawi ino tidakali pa chosoni, m’bale wathu Ben lero akukanidwa poyera kuti samagwira ntchito Kwa Bushiri. Tizakuyankhani tilachoka mu nyengo iyi ya maliro.
Yesu apakwawo amamunyoza koma iye analimbana Nazo osasuntha osasiya zomwe amachita. Ameneyo ndiye prophet of God. Koma ma prophet ofuna chumawa ndi izizo.akati apange choziziswa apite kaye kwa asinganga ndiye apange zodabwisa anthu azikhulupilire. Kumwamba mukuyankha
Pls Man of God remember what Jesus said regarding a prophet in his home town. And you Ephraim, your advice to Prophet Bushiri is wrong. Jesus never stopped preaching in Nazareth
Waaaah! Really Prophet Bushiri u want praises from pple & not from God eeesh! l thot u do spiritual deeds bt u want to b worshipped by man? T.B. Joshua refuses to b mentioned dat he healed or assisted so & so bt encourages to praise Jesus ndiye a Bushiri mukufuna red carpet? Zibvere Mumtolo Malawi.
MALAWI NEEDS COMPLETE OVERHAUL -MALAWI NEEDS EVANGELISATION — AS ONE PEOPLE ONE NATION LET’S LEARN TO LOVE AND PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER — GOD WILL BLESS US
My prophet don’t quite this job is designed by God himself to you..Dont mind about people who wants to take your mantle from God..noooo that’s you are chosen amongst Malawian
People will talk but can they do all what you are doing????Leave them God knows..You are blessed
Even prophet TB Joshua is always insulted but he doesn’t give up he knows people just want to destroy him..
You’re fighting agood fight of faith.
O yes. Papa is unstoppable and i don’t think he wants to do what is written here.
Let’s just learn to say the truth….reasons advanced for the decision are lame and frivolous…….there was, is n will be Malawi with its myriad challenges & succeses……bushiri or not
With due respect it appears the Prophet’s Bible doesn’t have Matthews Chap. 6 vs 1 to 8. It talks about giving.
Serving God in any way is not popularity contest. Even Jesus was ridiculed after all that he did.
Dont touch my anointed Ones
Nyondo is marketing buffoonery. By merely holding on behalf of major 1 he thinks he is running the whole ministry. Bushiri at this point ought not cry for flattery being sold by Nyondo his deeds are visible to all. Vengeance won’t do Bushiri belongs to us Malawians he is our boy our son our prophet a spiritual leader in his right so it is silly for Nyondo to initiate punishment measures on Malawians just because the illiterate Facebook users say anything against the prophet the beneficiaries of Bushiri’s various forms of assistance are villagers who don’t even know what internet is. Nyondo stop this nonsense you’re flying too close to the sun you’ll drop into the sea the Greeks will tell you
I don’t think it’s a true story but if it’s true he has gone through too much by Malawians than all men of God I know. He gave food some at the same time goes to media saying that it’s a satanic food. Give to those appreciate. Some Malawians men of God, politicians, media should take On where Bushiri is going to left its the responsibility for all Malawians.
Koma a Nyasa Times munadya za Bushiri zochuluka kwabasi. Imeneyi story kapena kuchemelera?
“But when you do merciful deeds, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand does”. Matthew 6:3. By telling us the good deeds he is doing to Malawians to justify the decision he has taken, is this not against the teachings of Christ whom every Christian should follow? The verse clearly teaches us to avoid seeking praise of others for our good deeds. Charity should be out of goodness of the heart, not because you expect praise from those you are helping.
exactly,nane zikundidabwitsa especially that its coming from a man of God
If it was me surely I would have also been angry too, Bushiri is also a human being.Malawians enjoy speculations and always enjoys bad publicity of a successful person.Everytime somebody does well we are up to him to make him fall down.let us learn to respect one another.I ask Bushiri to move on with his pastoral life and ignore all bad publicity about him.Do Good To Shame The Devil.
Let him cut back on Malawians, Malawi is a God fearing country and people know when ever something fishy happens, He’s great man of God ok but his actions brings many unanswerable questions and so it’s his wealth, plz pple don’t be fooled with suit ‘n ties on a pulpit…😈😴
Kodi mukati God fearing nanga bwanji Mulungu sakulidalitsa dzikolo? You are more hating than loving. Why attacking only papa .mfiti zimakupatsani chakudya? You are too much Malawians that’s why you are not blessed. Inuyo ndiye muli holy? Someimes kuuza anthu zimene ukupanga inspires other men of God to do the same kodi Yesu sanafunse kuti ndachiritsa ten akhate koma bwanji mmodzi yekha wabwera kudzathokoza.
To my papa, if indeed this is true, chonde akhululukireni anthuwa khungu too much.
We don’t attack men of God like that
I invite Shepherd Bushiri to read the following scriptures: Galatians 6:9, Deuteronomy 15:11, Hebrews 6:10, Hebrews 13:16, Luke 6:38, Proverbs 19:17
Za zii you juss wasting your time woo. He knows the bible even zomwe Jesus anachita koma sizinalembedwe
I know that recognition is inherent of human beings for work well done. This is for earthly glory. He is only human anyway. However, learn to forgive and forget.
This is a by-gone story. Something is indeed terribly wrong. Who are we to judge and condemn? Only God is the righteous judge
Papa pls don’t do that Mulungu akubisilani Dzina mukatikwiyila, chonde musatelo, brother Nyondo pls Auzeni Papa kuti zabwino zonse zifumila kwa Yehova,
If Bushiri is doing charity work in order to be rewarded on earth through recognition and praises, then it confirms that he is not a true man of God. It is said in the bible that what the right hand is giving the left should not know. Why should a man of God have a whole publicity department? – For public stints?
The Catholic Church has the Pope who has no such pomp. Even their TV and radios are not for the Pope to be featured all the time but for evangelism.
Ganizani bwino Amalawi.
Mukufuna mukathandiza anthu then akupembedzeni? Mmmmmmmmmm mwaiwalatu inu!
Ephraim Nyondo, Bushiri being a man of God hope will not listen to your office advice as it does not relate well with someone who claims to be the man of God. Hope the Holy Spirit will guide him accordingly as i see no spiritual guidance in your argument. Papa ignore those unguided advice and concentrate on your calling.
Really your people have redicule for long time. Move on with the people who appreciate your effort
Much as i understand kut ndi munthu and wants to be appreciated but i thought as a man of God akuyenera kupitiliza kuchita zabwino whether appreciation or not. Jesus is our example he was called names,his own pipo rejected him koma sanasiye kuchita zabwino.
True. Bushiri should turn to 1 Peter 2:23 in order to get comfort. He cannot please everyone. He needs to focus all his attention on God who will then judge righteously.
But getting angry becoz of what ? This Nyondo guy its misleading you his decision is a business decision not As a Man of God.So ayi Izonso zanu there alot pple who gave more than you gave actually they gave all but at the end they r called names but they still give until now.
Malawians not appreciating! KIKIKIKIKIKI, Not comment man of God
This is what happens when you do things in order to get praise from people. Just because Malawians are poor he thought that they will bow down and worship him. We had Bakili Muluzi who used to throw money in the air and people scrambled to pick it up like desperate chickens, but today where is he with his money? Bushiri is very immature, you call him Major 1 but he is behaving like a Minor 1. You call him Papa but he is behaving like a child. Every leader is criticised, even Jesus was persecuted, vilified, spat on and even crucified but he said, “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do”. Here is a ‘prophet or profit’, practising open vengeance. Where was Bushiri ten years ago and how were Malawians surviving? Share what you have if you want to without attaching these egotistic conditions or just keep your money and perish with it. Even if you have 4 jets, you can only fly one at a time. Even if you have 100 cars, you can only drive one at a time. Blood money is blood money basi, when we help you to eat it its not because we approve of your funny prophesies. We are just hungry basi.
Well said brother
kikkkkkk
There is a lot of childishness in this man. He never turned up for the funeral. Normally normal people would wait 40 days before torturing the family of the dead that their sons were not known in the church. Bushiri he should learn the work of God oyamika ndi mwini wake MULUNGU, if he wants praise he can buy it. There are so many questions, so many stories and everyone knows James Nee wanted to leave. He told his friends and family. They had not been paid since June 2018. Many will leave now the church, everyone is frightned. Everyone is not sure. The biggest weakness of Shepered Bushiri is his running away from funerals… it remains source of speculation, no matter how he might want to spin it, ku maliro sapita, sanapiteko ndipo tikukayika ngati azapiteko. Ndiye munthu wosakhuzidwa ndi malira a wana wake, lero nkumati sakuwadziwa, kazimusatilani mpaka nanu muzalondole James Piringu, Khamba ndi Brain Gondwe. We left the church in May. we now at peace
This article doesn’t make sense….so he is sending back malawians who work for him because of What???He is not being appreciated?…is this the condition for help?..kissing his feet and flattering him with praise?
The reasons for dismissing the workers and negative publicity are two separate issues. If it were that these employees were the ones attacking him, I would say fine go ahead and fire them. However, the scenario is different. It is a third party actually talking and making noise.
I for one, would have loved if the Prophet used a different method> Where is forgiveness?
Tikamalephera kupanga zoonekera kwa anthu ena nkumawayendera timayamba majelasi kuipitsa mbili yanzao ulesi kusowa mapulani Bushiri ngati ndi false profeti kaya ndi wasataniki izo ndi zake musiyeni akapsa moto yekha koma ngati mupitiliza kumuipitsira mbili yake moto wo mukapse ndinu wa Bushiri wo coz mukumutsukira machimo ake wo mmalo mopanga zanu zikuyendereni muli bhize ndi Bushiri this Bushiri that kkkkk muchedwaaaaa in fact muzigona ndi njala umphawi ukukomolani ndi ma bhikozi a nsanje Manyasaland mwina tisinthe National Anthem yathu yi mwina our mind set will change as well
Che Ephraim mukunamapo apa. In any country there people who disrespect Bushiri. The truth is Bushiri could face litigation for the death of these 3 as his employees , even if they were just given allowances to travel to Malawi. This is a way of making sure he isn’t exposing himself too much. Kodi bwanji osanginena kuti He is sending them back for reasons known to himself that lying pomwepa inu ndinu spokesman wa “Munthu wa Mulungu”?
Let them come bavk. Back to sender….
When things reaches these levels its when you can differentiate a real man of God or not. Jesus never sent back people at any time, when people cried for him because of hunger, he fed them, Why should Bushiri say people don’t appreciate him, is he after praise from the people he helps? That is the cause you created, you made everyone feel about you and now people are up to you, Churches and ministries should empower people to do things on their own nor enriching yourself and subject others to poverty, when they are too poor they look up to you
The remarks from Ephraim Nyondo, if Nyasa Times quoted him right are very unfortunate. I don’t know if Bushiri shares these views. Does it mean that Bushiri assists people to be appreciated? I strongly ask Nyondo to go back to the Bible and see what people did to Jesus despite healing, feeding and raising them from death.
Send him a Chichewa version bible. May be he is failing to grasp wisdom from an English version.
I doubt his originallity and credibility
Ephraim the post you are holding looks like is overwhelming you..you sound like a desperate Malawian seeking recognition. PSB is bigger than the dog barks.
Olo! Sitimadya kwa Bushiri for!
I didn’t know that prophets also get so angry that they even punish those that are considered not towing the line. Why would a whole prophet decide to punish the entire nation just because the media is writing rubbish. I am sure those who have benefitted from his generosity having nothing but praise for Bushier….that is all the matters; the rest is just noise from dogs barking at an elephant walking to its logical destination.
Doesnt he do good for God? Why does he want to be appreciated by people? Attention seeking? Haaaa zanu amene mumangoti papa i connect, papa amen. Za ziiii abusa opanga walk in the air and capture in spirit. Mxuuuu
To be honest we really critisise this guy a lot for no reason but negative speculations. I for one believe that riches come about if someone uses his head properly & have some luck to some extent. Osati za satanic mumanenazo.
Nice PR gimmick… Create room for sympathy…
What’s his purpose for doing the charity work/assisting people? Is it for praises from the people? Is it for fame and positive publicity? Does he do it as a calling from God and therefore expects rewards from God? He won’t stop if his purpose is to please God whom he claims to serve.
Does the Prophet do all those good deeds for recognition or out of good will? Asking for a friend
One never appreciates what a precious gem one has until one loses it. Forgive us Malawians, Papa, for we do not yet know how favoured we are to have a major prophet like you from Malawi. Judging by the reception you got at BNC, people now know that you are a true prophet of God. Ordinary people appreciate you. It’s other men of God and until recently , the government, who where critical of you for their own ungodly reasons. May God continue blessing you abundantly. Don’t abandon us Malawians now when we need you the most. I now know that Jesus is REAL because of your teaching and your demonstration of the power of God.
If really he is holly, he can not get angry with these unestablished stories bad about him as Jesus Christ did. Any good leader should have this trait in his or her life. Otherwise there is something wrong with this prophet and because the bible says we should not judge, I stop here.
Zoona, not only something is wrong….rather many things are wrong. Sindikuweluza koma munthu ngati akufuna kuti azithokozedwa ……nanji wokhala munthu woti amanamiza anthu powawopseza ndi chiganizo chokuti watumidwa ndi Mulungu…….sorry we are not ready for that……
