Churches in Zomba, Liwonde rally behind Bushiri: ‘Prophet has well-founded fear of South Africa persecution’
Representatives of about 100 church denominations in Zomba and Liwonde have pleaded with Malawi government to listen to Prophet Shepherd Bushiri and his wife, Mary, on their concerns that their lives are in danger in South Africa and they won’t face a fair, just and impartial trial.
The group’s leader Bishop Mtuwa made the position at Bluegum Avenue Lodge in Zomba on Thursday after a daylong prayer session held to seek God’s intervention in matters surrounding Prophet Bushiri’s quest for justice.
Mtuwa noted Prophet Bushiri the leader of Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) Church face serious security threats and spates of injustice that, put together, created an atmospheric context that militated against every thought of facing a fair and impartial trial in South Africa.
“Because of that, we want government to use every legal instrument in its disposal to ensure that Prophet Bushiri be given a fair trial not in South Africa but elsewhere, if needs be,” he said.
Mtuwa added that South Africa’s failure to give Prophet Bushiri a trial after three years of waiting is a testimony of persecution not prosecution, hence , he be tried elsewhere.
“We are also calling on South African government to; in the first place, bring to book the police officers whom Prophet Bushiri opened corruption and extortion cases against,” he said.
He underlined that until there is a logical conclusion of those police officer’s cases, the South African government has no legal or moral right to try Prophet Bushiri.
The group has since vowed to continue standing with Prophet Bushiri spiritually and morally because he their colleague in the body of Christ; he is their fellow son of Malawi and, as custodians of human rights, they feel his right to life is paramount hence they will do all what it takes.
This follows another call by Pastors under the banner Pastors Link, Pastors Peacemakers Fraternal and Church Foundation for Integrity and Democracy who held a media briefing in Blantyre who said Bushiri being a Malawian was flying the country’s flag in the rainbow nation; hence, government must listen to his case.
One of the pastors, Reverend Malani Mtonga said government must ensure that Bushiri is well protected and follow his concerns with keen interest to ensure justice prevails.
During the briefing, the pastors also expressed reservations with the way Bushiri has been treated in South Africa, saying his security grievances were not addressed by the authorities.
They claimed Bushiri survived an assassination attempt but despite reporting the matter to South African authorities, he was not heard.
Since their arrival in the country, the South African government has been pushing for the couple’s extradition to answer their alleged criminal offences in the country.
But Bushiri said he is in the country because he has well-founded fear of persecution which his extradition would be disproportionate to his right to life.

Keep it up, you will be rewarded by Bushiri handsomely
Azibusa,musatinamize. U hv bn given cash by SB to support him.Mbusa Bushiri ngwakuba indi wabodza. R u also disputing the facts that he stole R102m from people and forged documents? Wake up! Ku Joni ayamba kale kumuthawa mbusa wonyengayu.
“The Lord is my light, and my salvation. Who shall l fear?”.
Why is Bushiri fearing, after all he is a ‘man of God’, and purportedly a ‘miracle man’?
All of his preaching of ” trusting in God”, fear nothing, or the anointing water, where is his faith?
This is why a lot of people came to think that perhaps Bushiri truly committed all the crimes the South African government is accusing him of.
I watched some of the video clips, read about the ordeal and plight of some of Bushiri’s victims, some of which lost their properties, their wives died, after investing all their money into Bushiri pyramid schemes.
On another hand, l am beginning to think that perhaps it is God’s way and plan, to get Bushiri tried and imprisoned in South Africa, so that he (Bushiri) can help save the lost souls in South African prisons.
I am saying this because, probably Bushiri will be able to preach, do miracles and deliver those who are imprisoned, while he ( Bushiri) himself will be serving his sentence.
The only painful thing for Bushiri will be that while doing God’s work in a South African prison, this time around he will truly be working for God, and for free, without people giving him tithes or offerings, as he will be preaching to fellow penniless prisoners.
All these church leaders and pastors, who are rallying behind Bushiri, and demanding all these impossible conditions, should be ashamed of themselves.
If only they knew what havoc Shepherd Bushiri has caused to a lot of people in South Africa, the tricks and scams he has done, they would be ashamed to be part of that ‘ free Bushiri’ campaign.
I came to conclude that all of the church leaders and pastors we see lurking in Malawi are mostly false and scavengers, who are nothing but mitengo ya kachere, yomela ma mtengo unzake, in other words, parasites and blood suckers.
Achulukirenji ma tcharitchi osalakira za kubwera kwa Yesu, koma only preaching about prosperity and miracle money, komanso umfiti uli pamwamba gaaa!
This is why we have high levels of rape and albino killing crimes in Malawi. Zambiri amapanga ndi omwe amanama kuti ndi azibusawa( false prophets).
I pray for the day when, monga ngati momwe anthu amadyera msima , aliyense ndi banja lake, mnyumba mwake, anthu adzatsakuka mmanso, nasiya kupempherera mu church, namangopempherera mmanyumba mwawo ndi mananja awo, and stop giving tithes or ndalama za mbale.
Tidzaone ngati ti ma tcharitchi tanuto tidzalimbe.
Churches are a sheer continuation of subjugation and colonialism.
Just a few churches are genuine. Ambiriwa ndi Aneneri onyenga.
Whoever is rallying behind Bushiri is a false prophet or pastor, for Bushiri himself is a false prophet, and birds of the same feathers flock together.
FOOLISH PEOPLE. He has SCAMMED people in South Africa with his criminal enterprise hence he has to face the music, period.
The problem here is these peple are being paid by this conman Bushit oh sorry Bushiri. please as you are eating his money try to bring some truth to this criminal that the problem is not the South African govrnment but the real danger is those citizens he duped and in exchange they want his life…..muuzeni zoona mbava mzanuyu kuti the only available right way to solve all his problems is to give back all that he stole from these people and he will only have one issue to worry about, that is jail time, if he will be found guilty, osanamizira boma la joni zopusa zanuzi, na uyuyu ngati sabweza ndalama zomwe adawabera ena mwa ma members ake uyu ndiye tikaika basi
True
Hahahahahah, Bishop Mtuwa from Liwonde, the one whose house was demolished by angry residents for kidnapping a primary xul girl from St. Therese primary? koma akumidima mwayamba kuikirana kumbuyo eti, do not worry your time is just near, you are all going down I tell you, uselessthieves masquerading as pastors!
Look at the poor souls wasting their time fighting Bushiri’s war. Azao tili busy kufukula mchenga ndikujiya ma geni kuti tipeze chakudya iwo ali busy ndi Bushiri. Malawi wont develop with such lazy bones. Let Bushiri go through the RSA justice system. Malawi Government should not risk its bilateral relationship because of Bushiri. We are aware he is funding these meetings to influence Tonse Govt. Recall how Bushiri demeaned LMC and now he wants his support. This is a matter btwin Bushiri and RSA Govt
We have to worship God in sprit and truth.Areal man of God can not run away from persecution.God said He will be with us in all our troubles.Only those who are wrong run away to avoid justice.
yes what about the victims in South Africa, did God prophecies him to commit such crimes in the church, two show that he was a criminal he did not build a church has he promised his followers. Stop protecting criminals, you are all man of god you should be ashmed of your self. That money will never give you peace alone, those lies one day God that you hide you real you with , will reveal you. if i were you i will stop lieng, May be those police they did not want the bribe just like those trhat you pay to keep quite.
kufela zaenitu uku.

Intertainment
Yes anadya zake amenewo ayenera amthandize mulungu wawoyo, insane leaders.
Please dont be mayopic.As so called churh leaders you do not have the monopoly of understnding everything. You need to accept that your capacity to understand somethings is limited and therefore do not pretend to be the ‘know it all’ Much as some of us thympathize with Bushiri, we would not stand on the way of justice. If Bushiri is innocent he can as well go and prove his innocence before the court of Law in South Africa. The people ho he alleges they would not give him a fair trial are not the judges rather are the prosecutors and the Police. The two do not judge but the courts pronounce judgement based on the evidence adduced before them. To start impressing upon government to intervent is wrong and misplaced especially if it comes from you people who call yourselves ‘holy” What evidence do you have for your stand? What is wrong when the government has left the issue to be dealt with by courts? Please we still want you respect you. I wish you had gone for fasting and prayer to ask God to tell you the truth about what exactly is this all abouyt and further that he should intervene to show the world the truth and guide. Please God is holy and so you should be
Stupidity,wake up fools
Did you also discuss how he obtained a diplomatic passport when he is not a diplomat? If you did not discuss that then I question your faith.
A Mipingo dekhani, this guy is a frausdter, mufela za eni
Blind support for the man of God who is raking billions by hoodwinking the unsuspecting. Nevertheless, he deserves a fair hearing.
You’re in Zomba & Liwonde, then you have already taken your side on an issue that you don’t know about. Assuming that the allegations are true then you pastors have already given your judgement. This gathering is a funded gathering. There are laws that have to be followed not pleading with the government.
Kodi azibusa inu I thought eve Jesus was tried on trumped up charges. And what does the Bible say about Thou shall not steal. Just keep quiet becausethese silly press conferences are ridiculous. If your prayers work pray for the country to change. That’s why all the national day of prayers and praying for a better Malawi don’t get answered. If u want help from Bushiri he will help you if you go to him sincerely
Wake up.
These guys are clever. Khirisimas aiona boo! [……..]
Birds of a feather. Between mammon and the tons of victims Bushiti has allegedly swindled in South Africa, they’ve chosen to side with the former. Barabbas should be freed, they seem to be saying. Jesus wept!
About 100 churches supporting stupidity.
Poverty is a crime. Instead of preaching the gospel you are busy wasting time with personal issues concerning an individual who left Malawi, seeking silver and gold in the name of God. He used to say Malawians are jealous people whom he said could not understand him hence his reason of relocating to RSA. Now he spirited himself back to the same Jealous Malawians seeking refuge when RSA woke up and started asking questions on his authenticity and claims. Alas! How long you forsake God and look up to a mere human being as god. Repent and change. The love of money is the root of evil.
Well, of all the places, you chose to assemble at a lodge. How many of these 100 denominations own a so called church building? The answer will be none. How many of these 100 have built a pastor’s house funded by their denominations? The answer will be 100.
Talk to the govt. about real issues. Powerless babes being defiled, albinos being killed, females being raped. Shame on you so called pastors. You would rather meet at lodge because someone funded your meeting than meet in one of your churches.
Koma kusauka nkovuta. Bushiri’s is making every body to dance to his tune. Waste of time.
Mwana wanjoka iwe Kod unaliko kusaukankovuta nangaiwe indiwe olemela iwe ukakhulupilirabwanji zimene akukuuza muthu wakunjila kumeneko ndekupusako basi vuto ndisanje basi muthu wabwera chifukwa amafunakumupha basi zoyakhula zake zizikhala zimenezi
Leave my prophet and don’t read the posts if you are not his followers
YOU are the MAIN dancer here
