Renewal in ECG Church: Prophet Bushiri fires PRO, key staff
Major Prophet Shepherd Bushiri has fired his public relations officer Kelvin Sulugwe, his personal aide Silverster Nkanda and some 14 other key administrative staff.
The Prophet announced these dismissals on Sunday at his Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) church in Pretoria showgrounds, South Africa.
These dismals are part of the reforms currently underway at ECG.
Bushiri could not provide the details of the dismissal.
However, the Prophet justified the decision by underlining that even a President of a country dissolves an entire cabinet and hires new ministers.
He told the fully packed congregation that he will bring renewal in his team.
However, the Prophet underlined that the fired staff will remain his “sons”, promising to support them when they need his help.
“They remain my sons and will help them whenever they need my support. They will still get my support,” said Bushiri.
He further added he has given Christlike clarity to the fired staff why the action has been taken.
“Firing someone is one of the most difficult tasks of a leader. It is especially a challenge in a Christian organisation. But sometimes it is the right and courageous thing to do. Sometimes the greater danger is doing nothing,” he said.
On Sulugwe, his longtime PRO, the Prophet explained that he (Sulugwe) has not done anything wrong.
“Sulugwe is a professional who has done so much to develop ECG. I admire him and I shall always do and supporting him to start a new indipendent life. However, it is important to understand that he is not the only person who has been fired. There also 15 others. I just want to have a new team from 2017 that can continue from where these legends stopped,” he said.
Sulugwe confirmed being fired but declined to comment further.

Time alone will tell. Tingoti phee, tione!
he was employed and what do we do with employed people we disemploy them. so what is wrong with this. churches have to be told. Infact the only rot in Christ’s camp was Judas and you know what he did and eventually led to Christ’s death. Because it was providence, Christ left him so that he should betray him because noone was courageous enough to do it except Judas. So Bushiri knows this fact well as man of God.
I am not a follower of Bushiri but I commend Major 1 or whatever title you give him for firing almost the whole team of his management. One major reason why I support this move is because the team started to use Prophet Bushiri’s ECG ministry to obtain favours fraudulently especially in Malawi. The guys would come proclaiming that they were Bushiri’s advance party and ask for services which they never paid. Several lodges and eating houses can attest to this. Bushiri’s team started to bring his ministry and even businesses into disrepute.
Bushiri has done well to correct the situation before it comes irretrievable. Of course the damage has already been done since most people who surrendered services will take time to trust Bushiri’s men. I suggest that Bushiri hires trustworthy to run his issues professionally and spiritually. A word of warning though; do not over trust South Africans. They can take over your ministry and businesses in the most cruel well.
To God be the Glory !!!!
………………….. Nigerian way of ending a movie……………..
Seems like many people awaiting the PSB to drown are a bit excited to see that he can also have issues. Of course where human are issues will be to face. He handles as a good leader and takes necessary decisions for all. I bet, as a prophet he had given chances to those people to come right. But in the top management sometimes people become full of themselves if they can not humble themselves and be prayerful: Glory brings many temptations- just like Lucifer at the beginning. Thank you GOD we have a Prophet who can sense the danger and intervene.
Firing? Tiziona
As a leader of that great congregation to er is human and God forgives. Actually if it’s renewal of office then the wrong word was used and should it be a crime dismissal is also not in place but rather discipline but who am I to judge? I will only pledge with the affected that if the Truth is there they should accept in good faith to continue with their worship under any leader to come.
In a cabinet reshuffle some members come back. Watch this space.
kma kuti hooooo…mukunena akelvin ali pa bench???zikod ili aaas
Mmm musathepo mau mungachimwilepo
who thought we could see a day like this huh? i mean Kelvin behaved like ECG nja atate wake.
Akuti right hand man Wa prophet but matama okhawo,kunyozesa munthu wamulungu…ADA aja akanadekha
can I apply for the vacant post??
Wowerengawe khala maso
And the Prophet saya and i quote ” I have FIRED them” ??? is this church or something else, you do not use insulting words in church you would have said you replaced them NOT i have fireeeeed them. And announcing in Church sounds Childish
If this is a company, yes that’s the way to go, but if it is a church, then no that’s not the way to go. I remember very well when Bushiri was using Silvester’s mercedez benz to boost his image because all he had between him and his wife was an old toyota harrier. Silvester served and served and served as a driver, errand boy , very humbly. He has always been there for Bushiri. Why take him off now when you say you have money? If it is a case of stealing, isn’t it because you Mr Bushiri as a leader you have not empowered them enough? All the money you are making cannot just be coming to you. Others have to eat as well. They helped you to get where you are, and if they are wrong now, you forgive and correct them as a ‘father’ not fire them. You are NOT perfect Mr Bushiri, if you fire those who are not perfect, God will also fire you, because you are just a man and far from being perfect
the issue is those people who were hired to get imposters(batmen) did not do the right job for the past few months, it was so embarrassing for the prophet to call someone from the crowd with a specific name for prophecy and the person comes forward just to tell the prophet with the first name correct but a different surname which was making the prophesy a big flop, to those who watch this guy with sober mind will agree with me, it has happened several times and sometimes the crew that is assigned to hire imposters were bringing people with lost memories and they could even forget what they practiced to do in front of the prophet, BABYLON HAS FALLEN!
all those of you who have been fired! ndikuti pepani its part of life, most especially mr kelvin silungwe….. pepa m’bale it happens
The Church and the Hot Potatoes!!!! Watch the space!!!
where somobody is fired it means there is a problem. the prophet could have resolved the problem with his fellow christians.
Now it’s time for us to know the truth about Bushiri. Come home guys and tell the world what is going under the ground. Remember if you are God fearing people you will tell nothing but the truth. Remember not to lie to God else you will face what Hannania and Saphira faced.
Chonena ndilibe
Time will tell!Thinking you are living in heaven but you are living in hell.
The many comments show how we rejoice in our fellow brothers and sisters misfortune. For whatever reason these people have been fired Bushiri is not God nor is he Jesus, these people will still find success anywhere if they work hard thats all, Bushiri is not the way to heaven nor does he have the key to these fired people’s future. Jesus is the only way
koma kelvin mumpezele nyumba ku joni konko…chifukwa akabwela kuno…athela mmanja mwa anthu chitsilu chimemenchi….chakhala chikulemba nkhani zambiri zobdzodza…..atipeza timuchotsa mano
Why does the Man of God announce dismissals on TV? That is physical and psychological torture to the fired employees and their families. Why does the Man of God behave in this manner?
Prophet Bushiri never announced the dismissals on Tv. It was after he had dismissed the live streaming. It was only after that when he made the announcement. That part was not streamed. it was a private session with his congregants.
the dismissals were not shown on TV
ECG is in RSA, is requered to hire the locals there .Jesus never fired disciples . The man of God could not compare the
firing to
politicians
Vuto lophatikiza uneneri ndi ntchito zamalonda, otherwise the fired PRO atiuza zambiri
Mwayambapo ku chosana? . Yesu ngakhale amadziwa kuti judas akapereka sanamuchotse, Kodi ziphunzitso zanu mumazitenga kut
Ine ndiropo bwana prophet .nafeso timafuna kukhala nanu

And I quote, “They remain my sons and will help them whenever they need my support.” – Bushiri (8th paragraph).
. . . Let no one be misled (by his/her mind) into thinking that these are just stray or random hence meaningless words.
. . . These words (my sons) are deliberately, carefully and thoughtfully chosen. Nanga inu . . .
. . . What does this statement (they remain my sons) make Bushiri, if not a father to these poor folks?
. . . Now, is there anyone who is so dumb as to believe that Bushiri is a biological father to these full-beard men and multigravida and/multipara women? Or that he is a step dad to these poor souls? Not at all.
. . . Truth is, by calling them his sons; Bushiri conveniently claims to be their SPIRITUAL father (not biological or step).
……………………………………………………………………………………………..
. . . And I quote again.
“This is my son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” – God (Matthew 3:17).
. . . We all know (from this verse), that God is not the biological father of Jesus; but a spiritual one.
. . . Now, by calling these people his sons, these people, in their subconscious mind; regard Bushiri as their spiritual father. Like some god. And/or they regard Bushiri as their bridge to God (either as a replacement or helper of Jesus). This is the whole mission: to deceive and confuse people.
. . . Let those with ears hear!
O…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..O
I am not a fun of Bushiri. But on this one he has shown true leadership qualities. This is a sign the guy has a vision he must pursue but only with a new team. I salute you on this one. APM where you? Do you have a vision for this country?
Hahahaha koma kuti buuuumu. Ndiye dzana lija akanafela zawenitu bwana sulungwe
There is still more under the tip of the iceberg in ECG. Watch the space.
hahahahahahaha. Matama onse aja a Kelvin? Hahahahahaha.
Mwana akadziwa zisinsi sumamtayilathu ayi-kuopa akaulula nde umangoti panopa chokapo koma ndizikuthandiza pachilichonse ungafune–imene timati “Kora apa sono”
