CCAP Blantyre Synod Rev in incest scandal: Fathers child with own daughter

August 16, 2015 Nyasa Times Reporter 100 Comments

Reverend Chimesya Phiri is not new to sexual controversy that threatens his vocation. The Prison Chaplain for Blantyre Synod of the CCAP, has now broken the moral and spiritual code after impregnation of his own teen daughter who has since given birth, Nyasa Times understands.

Revv Chimesya: Incest scandal

The daughter, Eliza, fell pregnant last year while she was a student at Michiru Private Schools and was immediately dispatched to their home village.

The reverend allgedly asked his daughter to implicate a garden boy who was also immediately fired as a cover up despite his repeated claim of innocence.

The issue, which has been a secret for months, finally floated to the surface after the girl broke the news to her friends who came to visit her at the family’s home at the HHI Synod headquarters in Blantyre.

“She must have been tired and angry at carrying the shame on behalf of his father that is why she let the cat out of the bag,” said Nyasa Times source, a resident at the HHI Mission.

He added: “Its no longer a secret. Almost every resident at HHI knows about the story. The daughter has been telling friends about it. It’s a shame to the church and indeed the kingdom of God.”

This scandal is not the first for the embattled cleric to be involved in.

In 2008 the Weekend Nation reported that, while serving at Mpilipili Church in Mangochi, Chimesya employed a 12-year old girl to run house chores while attending school. But months later he was implicated in her pregnancy and was transferred from Mpilipili to Msoni Church in Chiradzulu by the Synod.

Chimesya Phiri denied any wrong doing and told the paper then: “I know this is a fight by some pastors against me because our synod is already divided. But I am ready even to appear in court and defend myself.” .

He admitted having employed the girl, saying he did so to rescue her from an early marriage which the parents had arranged with some man, a claim the parents denied.

The issue died a natural death as police and synod through then general secretary Rev. McDonald Kadawati covered up the story thus failing to help the girl’s family in soliciting justice and discipline.

Meanwhile, the synod is yet to meet and discuss the issue which has now caught the attention of thousands of church members. It is believed that even the Malawi Prison Services want Chimesya out as its chaplain.

Ironically, Chimesya’s moral decadence comes at a time when he was summoned by the synod after he spoke to the media attacking government.

Chimesya denies the story and blames his detractors at the synod for “cooking” it up to turnish his image and deal with him.

Blantyre Synod moderator said if indeed there was evidence on the matter, the Rev. Chimesya Phiri would have to appear before several courts of the Church that include staffing and nomination committee and the General Administration Committee which may recommend his dismissal.

  7. Satanist at its cause. The one who could no believe the sory should do so. It is end times when satan is striving to destroy the church.

    Just imagine, if a Muslim hears about this what will be the comment? He will say we told you that it is good to have many wives to protection the temotation of adultery

  11. these are pure lies from the pit of HELL.Be carefull those of you who are writting or commenting without proof.dont play with men of God.this is a government ploy to tarnish the image of Chimesya.be careful

  12. Churches and police are similar. If one has committed a crime atone station, he or she is transaferred to another station immediately. Guta system form Chilobwe in Blantyre to EastBank in Chikwawa.Unfortunately fisi ndi fisi amakalakwanso komweko.

  13. Why people create stories? this, just reading from a distance one can tell is a pure machination fabrication and it is not only destroying CCAP but all who believe in God and His servants. What is wrong with you people of Malawi.

  14. This is very shameful act being a man of God. But devil uses such kind firthy implications to destroy men of God. Had it been this was done by a worldly person it couldn’t gone as far as on this media. At this point the devil is

  18. Cooked up story by CCAP Blantyre synod haters,hahaha,koma ya,ndale zafikapo Ku blantyre sybo,just like my Livingstonia synod,

  19. For sure i cant believe this story and who ever is creating this should be ashamed of this seemigly cooked up story. Even the version of the story doent carry any sense. Iam a Catholic but eeeeshiii ma neighbors CCAP, mmmmmmhhhhh this isnt fair to the man of God and to your church as a whole.

  21. This case calls for DNA evidence, no less.
    Science should be the source of evidence in cases of pregnancies, like this one. The tests are cheap; and the results are indisputable. Accept no substitute evidence.

  27. You journalist have you proven beyond reasonable doubts on your reporting this is embarrasing! How do you intend upon turnishing the image of the Man of God? On what grounds do you base your allegations be careful! Lest you take upon yourself the wrath of the ALMIGHTY I believe you have ears!!! Eeesh!

  28. Where is our synod going? Mulungu atithandize ndithu azibusa ambiri mwachoka pamaso pa mulungu.

  30. There is no way the Kungdom of God be ashamed cos it’s not run by man but God Himself only that for one to be a pastor doesn’t necessarily need education, the right qualificatio

  31. Its not true that only SDA pastors are salt and light to this world. M’busayu sanachimwe chifukwa cha CCAP wachimwa chifukwa cha khalidwe lake!

  32. You point blank you are out of order. Which pastors in this country are famous for conjugal loinal issues. Its seventh day xtians and pastors. You are not even ashamed of your fucking habits. The whole church is full of motherfuckers shaft imakhala mmanja fucking other peoples wives the kufaini of this world all of you what are you talking about?

  35. Mmm,people wake up,thus is a deliberate move by dpp to furnish this reverend’s image,do you people remember this reverend’s stance against Peter mutharika’s “prison wall” writing business? The blantyre CCAP synod has finally run out of ways of dealing with innocent people who tell the truth about their darling dpp politicians,nealemba mmadzi a blantyre synod,takutulukirani,muzikanamiza anthu osaohunzira kumudzi,incest is a criminal act which is tantamount to imprisonment,why is the police not involved after all that evidence? You people mumapempheladi inu? Shame on blantyre synod,ife tili pambuyo pa chinesya,tikuonerani

  40. Mkukhala kwake Chimesya Phiri. Amakonda kukwera kwabasi. Zaka za m’mbuyomo ali m’busa ku Bemvu C.C.A.P wakhala akukwera atsikana a choir ndi azimayi a mvano. Amakawakwelera m’phiri la Bemvu. Madzulo aliwonse amanyamuka pa njinga yake yamoto ndi kamnyamata kena kamene kamakamuyitanila tiatsikanato ulendo kukakwera. Akamakwera m’phirimo kamnyamatako amakasiyira njinga yamotoyo, iyeyo akatha kukwerako basi kutengana ulendo wakunyumba. Anyway I am not judging.

  43. I am very worried with the attitude of Chimesya as reported in Newspapers. Does he care about respecting authority? I am not familiar with the rules of this Mpingo. But i do not see how a car donated to man of God remain his and not of God? I am catholic and if catholics donated a vehicle to a hardworking priest that vehicle belongs to the parish akamachoka amaisiya. How can a pastor own property?Let alone how can he claim ownership of a car donated to him by doing God’s work for God people? Please educate me. Otherwise it is a scandal to fight for God’s property. More scandalous than this current fake story.

  44. Kaya ndi zoona olo ayi, nkhawa yanga ili pa anthu amene amaika chikhulupiriro chawo chonse pa the so called men of God. Koma zonsezi zimadza chifukwa a khristu ambiri sawerenga ndi kumvetsa mawu.

  45. Many so called men of God are in fact wolves in sheep skin.They are at the centre of destroying other peoples marriages and relationships.My warning to my fellow christians is always keep an eye over your shoulders whenever a Pastor or Bishop visits your home.Now as for the innocient girl who has been impregnated by this stupid Pastor, i ask Patricia Kaliati to intervene in this matter so that the man gets a stiff penalty.This will serve as a lesson to other ungodly clergy.

  47. Kukhwimira ndi ubusa womwe ??

    Koma achawa ndi alomwe mfiti

    Zokha zokha !! Zodya maliro !!

    NANGA CHONCHI MULUNGU ANGAKUPATSENI NZERU NDI LUNTHA LOYENDETSERA DZIKO ??

    ZERO ZERO ZERO !!

  48. ccap woyeeeeeeeeee, Blantyre synod woyeeeeee, a ccap mumakonda kunyoza mipingo ya anzanu ngati ndinu a ngelo.

  49. I cant judge him God will but if it is true, the church needs to take strong disciplinary measures on this pastor.

  50. I have known this man of God and can say this is not true. There are elections at the synod people withing the church are doing whatever they can to paint each other the darkest paint that fails them to win. Not all what is written here is true. Who did the medical test to prove he did this? Please Blantyre synod behave yourselves. Don’t destroy each other because of positions.

  51. Kodi Inu Ma Journalist Mumakonda Kulemba Ma Scandal Azanu Pamene Mma Office Anumso A Media Mumachitika Ma Scandal Timamva Simumapanga Post Mwanj?Muzayelekeze Kunena Za Ine Winawe Ndizakuulula,shame!

  52. It’s really a shame. I know him very well it’s his habit. Chauta amakutoperatu ndi kukutaya. Uyu zedi sakutumikira Yehova koma woipayo

  54. Mwangodana naye ndipo mukungofuna kumuipitsila mbili poti mukukanganila galimoto yomwe JB anapeleka,ku CCAP kuli abusa ambili a uve ena ali ndi akazi awili ndipo ndikhoza kuwatchula maina, kulibe m’busa wolongosoka ku ku CCAP onse nd achinyengo komanso ziphuphu

  56. This mdodana at mchenga utuwa was found on top of the maid on the matrimonial bed last week, but the church has just sealed its mouth.

  58. This has been cooked up….the girl was dispatched to her home village and then she was telling her friends who came to visit her at hhi
    …… wina walipidwa apa

  59. Ine ndikuti abambo awa nyere yimaabvuta kwambiri. Ndithu ndipita nawo kwa T. B. Joshua akawathandize

  61. Bullshit of a story. Manyi a nkhani. This is DPP fighting the man of God. Its the synod election politisisation.

  63. The gvt must regalise maukwati apachibale. Our beautiful sstas akukwatiwa nd zidakwa. While our brothers they are marrying zinkhwankhwa mmidzimu. Boma tilolen tikwatire azilongo athuwa akufa ndi umbeta, chonde!!

  68. How many times are you, journalists going to apologise for cooked up stories? Report the reality and not what some people pay you to report. By the look of things, this story is not true; people are trying by every means to tarnish other peoples image just for the sake of the synod’s elections.

  72. The man of God, why are you so wicked to that extent? This is why Jesus had wished, if you were like him: No wife, no child no wealthy, inorder to save God well. What you have done is a disgrace. You lack charisma though………. Going to church is one thing, and to be Godly is another, really.

  78. Very sad story and very shameful. At least its a CCAP pastor not an Adventist Pastor coz this wall would have been full of Insults by now. This should act a light to you SDA pastor since you’re salt of this world and people expect you to be exemplary. As for our pastor pray to God to forgive you for you to enter the kingdom of God. As for the consequences, they will come. What will benefit you to have everything on earth and loose the kingdom of God. We are all sinners and Jesus died for all of us including you pastor.

  81. Chimesya is a Northerner, plz dismiss wt immediate effect! He a shameful character to our disciplined Synod. He wanted to fight the DPP government in the name of Prison & Synod, now let him dance to the tune!

  82. Munthu otsogolera nkhosa za mulungu amayenera khale chitsanzo kwa anthu onse koma izi ndie ziti? Wotchout christians satan also with you within the church

  84. It is clear that these days the Church does not have any morals. Look how the CCAP in Blantyre is in a power/money struggle, and the same goes for the Muslim Association of Malawi. These people are mortals, and behave just as good or bad as any other. Only: they don’t pay tax (for unknown reason!) The Church has no moral highground any more.

  87. Rev, Chimesya need an urgent spiritual Devine.
    Let’s help to pray for the problem he has is beyond his capacity and unfortunately he can’t see that the devil is working withing him so that he can completely die spiritually..
    The sex scandal and the fighting he is in with him Boss ( The General Secretary ) all these signifies the power of the devil in him.

  90. BT Synod you are letting us down. You were in the news yesterday regarding your political innuendos, now we hear this. For once try to focus on the church mission which is to act as the body of Christ

  91. This is a shame to the church. Particularly Blantyre synod, why condone such reverends to get away with such indespicable acts?

  92. Zikuchita kuwonekera2 kuti BT and Livingstonia synod of the CCAP can make good mitilitia groups upon given guns!!!!!

  95. Police should arrest him immediatily dont wait for the synod to meet the NGO who protect the child rights where are u please act on this man justice has to preveil

  97. Works of Maulana. Za ziiiiii. Maulana paja umatambaso usayiware ukhwima tooo much
