Bushiri visits fire victims in Joburg, supports them with K20m
Prophet Shepherd Bushiri on Thursday visited residents of Alexandra Park, a high-density in Johannesburg, South Africa, who were affected by shack fires that spread through parts of the area and destroyed at least 352 structures.
The unconfirmed number of shacks that have burnt down has left residents homeless. Some were scrambling to save as many belongings as possible.
The Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) leader, who is renowned for his series of philanthropic works, further donated about K20 million to help, specifically, meet the education needs of the affected children.
“As you might recall, I have a strong interest in issues to do with children and education. I do understand that in tragedies such as these, we have children whose learning materials have been destroyed, who have lost their uniforms and just so many things.
“We are here to stand with families to help their children with their education,” said Major 1 who, a week ago, supported about 15 students in Malawi with school fees.
Bushiri further said he will return to the area next week Tuesday to continue engaging with the families especially in helping them with spiritual and social support.
According to disaster management officials of the area, at least 650 people have been displaced and in need of critical relief supplies, not limited to food, shelter, water, sanitary wear, clothes, blankets, replacement documentation among other things.
As it is, all displaced women and children have been sleeping at a creche while the men and boys are sleeping at a development center.
The collapse of an electricity pylon has made restorative construction impossible.
Thanks Major
We must give a credit where it is due.God is seeing this and will always reward the hand that giveth.I urge Bushiri to move forward and be the light that shines.
Better is this fake prophet who meets people at a point of need when all Angels disapear and this you call the devil appears and rescue the poor mass.
I would rather folliw him rather than you and Angel who parrots bad against him and you can’t even share your spoils….
From your explaination all we see is evil and jelousy .
You won’t run long.
Well. This is a fake man of God. He was cornered for money laundering and he went ahead to hire expensive lawyers to defend him yet he cheats his congrants that things happen by miracle. Why not use annointing water to defend his case and why did he not foreward these residents that there will be fire breakout.
Mulibwanji a Lilian Kaunda? Timati tifuse kodi zimene mwalembazi zugwilizana ndi nkhaniyi kapena mwazitenga pa nkwiyo wina wa kale? Kikkkkkk!!!
Alilian kaunda muli ndi chiwanda ndichimene chikulankhula mwa inu. Ndiye poti mukuti major 1 ndi wa fake pitani kwa abusa anu akakuchoseni.
He claimed that investigations later pointed to a Bushiri supporter named Kelvin Sulugwe, who had created a fake Facebook page and circulated the false pictures.
Following their public spats, the charismatic prophets decided to bury the hatchet.
Addressing the media yesterday, Mboro reiterated that he had not gone there to fight, but wanted Bushiri and him to openly clarify that the heaven pictures were a smear campaign by one of the ECG members.
“There has been a smear campaign that prophet Mboro went to heaven, saw Jesus having sex with a Xhosa woman and sold the pictures so last year Major 1 (Bushiri) made peace with me; he apologised after the investigations linked the matter to Kelvin’s Facebook account. A case was opened. That damaged my reputation inter- nationally.
“The reason why I came here publicly was that this thing was in the media space, so we are not fighting. I just wanted us to do it publicly.
“He did confirm on SABC last year that Kelvin is the one who was running his PR who did that, and he fired him immediately, and then he apologised. There were many other issues that were created by people who are running PR administration on the side of Major 1 in the past. I used to occupy this place on Fridays; I used to address 20000 people, but then I left for the sake of peace because I don’t fight for people; people belong to God.”
Last week, Mboro went to Alleluia Ministries in Sandton, where he demanded to see pastor Alph Lukau to confront him for allegedly bringing Christianity into disrepute by staging an event in which he appeared to be raising a man from the dead.
But he stood outside the church with his supporters and members of other denominations because the Congolese pastor did not emerge.
At the time, people pointed out that Mboro was the last person to cast a stone, citing the heaven stunt.
“People said, how does he condemn fake resurrection, yet he was selling pictures of heaven and scamming people?”
Mboro said he supported Bushiri, making specific reference to a few weeks ago when the Malawian appeared with his wife on charges of fraud and money laundering.
Mboro said they remained men of God and their relationship hadn’t changed. He admitted he did not make a proper appointment to see him.
Before driving off, he prayed with his members and a small group of ECG members who had gathered there.
Pretoria – Incredible Happenings Ministries leader Paseka “Mboro” Motsoeneng yesterday stormed into the premises of Shepherd Bushiri’s church at Tshwane Events Centre, seeking a public apology over the 2016 “heaven miracle”.
He claimed the miracle had been orchestrated by Bushiri’s people, and now wanted to clear his name.
On arrival in Pretoria, Mboro went straight to Bushiri’s Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) church, but was instead met by security personnel. They told him Bushiri was not there.
In 2016, selfies of Mboro were circulated on social media, claiming he had gone through the gates of heaven on Easter Sunday that year and had taken pictures with Jesus Christ.
Mboro rejected the claims, saying he had not yet died and thus there was no reason for him to have visited heaven.
