Prophetess Mary Bushiri turns a year older as brother Gwamba pays touching birthday tribute on social media
Mary Bushiri, wife of popular Malawian preacher Shepherd Bushiri, has been showered with love online after her brother, popular musician Gwamba, marked her birthday with a heartfelt tribute on Facebook.
Sharing a stunning photograph of his sister dressed in an elegant mint-green gown, complete with a dramatic layered skirt and matching heels, Gwamba penned a gushing message celebrating the milestone.
“Happy birthday to my big sis! Wishing you a year filled with happiness and countless blessings. May you continue to shine and inspire. Love you always!” the musician wrote alongside the snap.
The photograph, taken against a lush, manicured garden backdrop, shows Mary beaming with joy, her hair swept back elegantly as she poses confidently for the camera.
The image has since been circulating widely on social media, with fans and well-wishers flooding the comments section with birthday messages of their own.
Mary Bushiri is best known as the wife of Shepherd Bushiri, the marveric prophet and leader of the Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) church, who has built a massive following across Southern Africa and beyond.
Mary has largely maintained a lower public profile compared to her husband, often appearing at church events and family gatherings rather than courting the spotlight herself.
Sunday’s birthday tribute from her brother, however, offered a rare and warm glimpse into her personal life away from the headlines.
Gwamba, a well-known figure in Malawi’s music industry in his own right, has never shied away from publicly celebrating his sister, often using his platform to share family milestones with his followers.
His birthday message struck a chord with many online, who praised the close bond between the siblings.
“Such a beautiful family moment,” one fan commented beneath the post, while another wrote: “Happy birthday to her, she looks radiant.”
The tribute comes at a time when the Bushiri family continues to draw attention across the region, with Shepherd Bushiri’s church activities and its continued growth and popularity remaining a subject of public interest. Still, for one day, the focus shifted onto a simple celebration of family and love.
Neither Mary Bushiri nor Gwamba has released further public statements beyond the Facebook post, and it remains unclear whether any private celebrations were held to mark the occasion.
