Rich kid of Malawi: Bushiri buys daughter K300m car as birthday gift

December 21, 2017 Chomi Khumalo - Nyasa Times 38 Comments

Few weeks after buying a fleet of vehicles to some of his workers, Prophet Shepherd Bushiri returned to vehicle dealers this week and bought a K300 million top of the range Maserati Levante as birthday gift for his  first born daughter.

Rich kid of Malawi: Israella Bushiri

In buying the gift, the South Africa based preacher has underlined that people should not just look at the money; rather, they should learn the importance of being there for family and, also, the need for responsible parenthood.

The daughter, Israella, was born December 25 five years ago.

The delightful preacher unveiled the gift Wednesday afternoon and wrote movingly about his unconditional love for the daughter.

Israella, despite being  four-years old , is already a hit at church because she carries the anointing of healing.

The Prophet, later, took it to Facebook to celebrate her daughter’s coming of age.

He wrote: “A man should never neglect his family for business. This is the reason why I always take time out with my family and show them love. Their happiness defines my success. Celebrating the birth of our daughter, Israella Bushiri!”

He added: “It seems like just yesterday when her little palms held my forefinger. It seems like only a while ago when I celebrated that finally I could lift her up and allow her to rest on my shoulders.

“It’s been a joy and heavens honor to watch her grow from being a baby to being the strong and brave child that she is today. I count myself blessed because not only did she give me a reason to smile but she gave me the opportunity to be called a Dad.

“My sweet little daughter, my pride and joy. May God’s loving kindness always shine on your beautiful face. I prophesy long life! You shall be great and yours, shall be a life that heaven celebrates. Happy birthday my princess!”

The Prophet is currently in Malawi for several line up charity programmes targeting the poor.

  4. Did the reporter do some googling before posting this propaganda story? My investigations have revealed that Maserati Levante 2017 model costs US$75,0000 which is around 54 million kwacha so where is 300 million kwacha coming from? Its his money but this car does not cost US$ 400, 000. Until now I dont know why this prophet behaves like our politicians

  5. This young Prophet is rich and whether people like it or not….he is killing it!
    Some people hate him just because he is making it in life….without stealing from the public purse!!
    They say he is stesling from his congregation…..I for one would rather have some one steal from gullible rich congregants than poor Malawians!

  6. Continue to think like pedestrians and you will get stuck where you are for years. Bushiri has the money and he is free to use it the way it pleases him. He did not beg from anyone. Haters will collapse big time.

    1. You are missing the point hate…get the good reasoning from the commentators. You really have poor reasoning skills i guess.

  7. You can take a man out of the ghetto, but you can’t take the ghetto out of the man………Prophet Bushiri is this necessary?

  8. So giving a 4 year old a car that she can’t drive for the next 13 years is good parenting?? No wonder Malawians are the joke of the world. How stupid is this man honestly? This is not good parenting. This is simply a rich prick bragging to everyone that he can afford a luxurious car. And worse off, you Malawians believe his BS. Fakest person ever and woe to all of you that follow or believe him!

  9. Jesus sailed in the most expensive boat in the sea of Galileo by simply getting za m’bale and tithe and then turning these into millions of fish. He sold the fish and made so much money. Intelligent people should be asking questions about why there is so much attention seeking and self-glorification by today’s so-called prophets.

  10. Abale kumuzi mukumawakumbila koma??ur uncles ,aunt,cousins and us who r going to cry and carry u to v grave and v grave diggers do put us in ur plans??we hope u will to us ife ka 3million katikwanazinazo pasani ena

    1. Which church can afford to rise such huge amount of cash? people comment blindly because they do not know that prophet Bushiri is filthy rich from his businesses around the globe…mining, wells oil business…. ,that car is like a toy to buy.

  12. “Becoming a rich Malawian is a crime”. Poverty will make people talk too much about this.

  14. Colleagues,
    Most of the comments posted are on the negative side of the gesture this particular father has shown to his beloved father. Lets not look in that context lest it be interpreted as jealosy! why not look from the positive side? Buying a most precious gift symbolises love, and this is what is being portrayed here. The best thing we have to do is to congratulate him, other than expressing scathing remarks and some of you have done unless you were his advisors!

  15. If we do masamu a diminishing returns, by the time she will be able to drive galimotoyi will be outdated then. Umbuli di siwabwino instead of giving her a gift befitting her age.

    1. The father will employ a driver to drive the kid around. She will sit at the back like a president or royalty QED.

    3. He bought a car to his daughter to be driven. Not her driving it. Umbuli bwanji? Even himself has a fleet of cars. He gets driven. Kodi munthu ukayendetsedwa mugalimoto yako ndiye siyako. Za ziiiii

  18. This is child exploitation. I’ve never seen any loving parents who buy an expensive car for their under 10 year old child. Loving parents would opt to give them a gift of lifetime that include taking the kids to Disney land, Cruise ship travel or the Famous Canadian Train route not a CAR!!!

    Is Bushiri really a prophet from God? I begin to doubt he is a show off guy who only works as a Business man.

  19. Amene angakhulupilire izi ndi mbuli yotheratu! You don’t see Bill Gates or Dangote parading their wealth the way this imbecile does? In any case, why are you journos with fake names desperate to sell this clown? His time in Jozi is almost up. Akamutulukila kumeneko amuphako ma Zulu sachita chibwana

  20. Ndalama inde ndi dzake but it just shows how money can’t buy class. Dangote and his children they don’t front on social media with their wealth.

    1. The minimum driving age is 17 years meaning she will have to wait for 12 years to drive it. Are these really parents? I don’t think so. This is child exploitation

  22. the most expensive version costs £75,000 which is about K75 million. How do our reporters jump to K300m? This is not cashgate!

    1. Ofcourse this amount doesn’t add up, because that car in SA cost about 1.5 million rand ; but still how many of us can afford that for a gift?

  23. What significance does that sort of gift have to a 4 year old girl? Are there no other gifts befitting her age that she can appreciate? This is the problem when people lack education, they don’t think critically. We appreciate it is his money, but that amount of money could have been better be used to support some children who have no parents and are lacking food. I don’t hesitate to think that the gift is simply symbolic or a show-off- someone else will be using a car. Chuma ndi m’chira wa khoswe so the old Malawian adage goes.

      1. This is nothing to do with God stupid people! Totally and totally lack of education just like his followers! Wake up people!!!
