Controversial self-styled prophet Passion Java’s false prophecy has been exposed after he predicted that Paul Mwazha, the 106-year-old founder of the African Apostolic Church, would not see the year 2025.
Mwazha, also known as “Mutumwa,” entered the New Year alive despite Java’s prophecy.
According to <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/clergyman-paul-mwazha-enters-2025-aged-106-and-still-counting-leaving-passion-java-exposed-amid-false-death-prophesy/">NewZimbabwe.com</a>, on November 1, 2024, Java claimed he had envisioned Mwazha’s departure before the end of the year and urged churchgoers to pray for peace and unity within the church. Java was quoted as having said:
<blockquote>
As the year draws to a close, I saw the departure of Paul Mwazha, going to be with the Lord.
To the church in Zimbabwe, I urge you to pray fervently for peace and unity within the walls of his congregation.
For I have seen a vision of discord and division among the top leadership, threatening to fracture the church. Succession disputes shall arise.
Pray for wisdom and guidance, love, forgiveness, and unity to prevail, that the church may continue to stand.
</blockquote>
As the year 2024 came to a close and 2025 begins, Mwazha, though frail, remains alive.
The centenarian’s last public appearance was during his 106th birthday celebration.

Passion Java's False Prophecy About Paul Mwazha Exposed

ZANU PF-aligned pastor Obadiah Musindo of the Destiny for Africa Network said Passion Java has no one to blame but himself after his much-hyped event, the “Night of Wonders” flopped.
Java, who is also a ZANU PF loyalist, had boasted that he would fill up the venue, the National Sports Stadium, vowing to quit preaching if he failed.
However, there was a poor turnout, forcing Java to prematurely end the gathering to avoid further embarrassment.
His followers claimed that he was sabotaged by fellow pastors who didn’t want the event to succeed.
But speaking to <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200026968/why-java-night-of-wonders-flopped">NewsDay</a>, Musindo said various organisations had mobilised people to attend the event but Java failed to avail buses to ferry them to the National Sports Stadium. He said:
<blockquote>
Passion should not blame anyone, be it other prophets or bishops. No one sabotaged him except his team. Except, I repeat, his team.
People are so bitter because they took their time. They did everything to mobilise people, only to be disappointed by failing to get transport.
And lastly, for example, on my side, he promised to hire buses for us.
There are different organisations, but I can’t speak for them as some of them came to me crying saying they were asked to hire buses, but the money never came.
Past five (5 pm), when the event was starting, that was the time that some money was released for us to hire buses.
Who was going to wait for Passion until midnight? Who in his sane mind was going to wait for Passion until late?
</blockquote>
Java is among a group of pastors who subscribe to the prosperity gospel which gained prominence in Zimbabwe and other parts of Africa, particularly Nigeria in the past few decades.
The prosperity gospel is a form of Pentecostalism that emphasises material wealth, health, and success as signs of God’s favour.
In Zimbabwe, proponents of the prosperity gospel claim to have the power to perform miraculous financial blessings sometimes referred to as “miracle money.”
Some Evangelical theologians consider it a serious heresy and a deception for many Christians arguing it can be misleading and distort fundamental Christian tenets.
Critics say that by focusing on supernatural wealth and blessings, prosperity preachers may divert attention from addressing tangible issues causing suffering, such as corruption.

ZANU PF-aligned Pastor Explains Why Passion Java's “Night of Wonders” Flopped

ZANU PF has ordered its supporters in Harare to attend Passion Java’s religious event today, Thursday, 09 May at the National Sports Stadium.
Java, a self-styled prophet and ZANU PF activist is holding a church service dubbed “Night of Wonders” at the 60,000-seater stadium.
Messages shared on ZANU PF social media platforms show that all Harare district structures have been instructed to mobilise party supporters to attend the event.
As reported by <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200026644/passion-java-turns-to-zanu-pf-for-night-of-wonders">NewsDay</a>, one of the messages circulating in Harare quotes the ZANU PF Harare Zone co-ordinator Joshua Gore as saying:
<blockquote>
All district chairpersons in Zone 6 are required to mobilise all members (munhu wese hake) to attend the church programme being hosted by Evangelist Passion Java.
</blockquote>
ZANU PF’s Zone 6 covers four constituencies of Mbare, Southerton, Sunningdale and Harare South as well as some parts of Hatfield and Waterfalls.
ZANU PF secretary for transport in the area, Nico Hamadziripi confirmed to NewsDay that the party was mobilising members to attend Java’s church service. He said:
<blockquote>
I can confirm that I have received a text to that effect and as a secretary for transport, I am told the buses will be there.
The district chairperson can come to collect the buses at Stoddart Hall in Mbare. Java is an active party cadre and we should support him.
</blockquote>
In a Facebook post on the event, Java said: “Whether you have HIV, you need money or you have a broken leg, come to Night of Wonders”.
Java also sensationally stated that he would never preach again if he did not fill the National Sports Stadium.
ZANU PF is reportedly mobilising its supporters from the country’s ten provinces to attend Java’s event and ensure that the stadium is filled.

ZANU PF Orders Supporters To Attend Passion Java's "Night Of Wonders"

Controversial cleric Passion Java and businessman Mike Chimombe have come under scrutiny after a Harare businessman filed a police report accusing them of attacking him at Rainbow Towers on Wednesday night.
According to <a href="https://www.zimlive.com/passion-java-mike-chimombe-in-public-violence-storm/">ZimLive</a>, Andrew Manongore reported the incident to Harare Central police station under IR 030777.
The allegations suggest that Java and Chimombe hired a group of thugs to assault Manongore.
Chimombe allegedly brandished a gun during the altercation. The incident reportedly captured on CCTV, resulted in Manongore being attacked and robbed of US$18,000.
Java’s apparent animosity towards the businessman, stemming from socialite Hillary Makaya’s association with him, adds complexity to the situation.
Meanwhile, Chimombe was allegedly provoked when Manongore labelled him as financially destitute.
Manongore sought refuge in a restroom before being taken to the hospital for treatment, along with his guards.

Mutarisi lambasted Java and Hood, saying they were jealous of him for “the love and respect from the people of Zimbabwe” that he receives without putting any effort.
He also claimed that Java and Hood have continuously attacked him and his Nash Paints business “without any valid reason.”
Posting on Facebook, Seh Calaz, real name Tawanda Mumanyi, said he doesn’t really care who is right or wrong but will not support a fake prophet, adding that Java fakes his whole lifestyle. Wrote Seh Calaz:

Jiti musician Baba Harare, whose real name is Braveman Chizvino, dismissed Hood’s response to Mutarisi where he pleaded innocence. He said:
<blockquote>

</blockquote>
<a href="https://wiki.pindula.co.zw/Night_Shadaya_Tawona">Knight Shadaya Tawona</a>, a social commentator, urged Mutarisi to ignore the “attention seekers”. He said:
<blockquote>

And they will always support you &amp; your business. Ignore attention seekers with no purpose but exist only to distract &amp; destruct. #NashPaintsForever

Shadaya, Baba Harare And Seh Calaz Defend Tinashe Mutarisi

Local businessman and the chief executive officer of <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Nash_Paints" title="Nash Paints">Nash Paints</a>, <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Tinashe_Mutarisi">Tinashe Mutarisi</a>, said that maverick preacher Passion Java and Hip Hop artiste <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Mudiwa_Hood">Mudiwa Hood</a> are jealous of the love and support he receives from members of the public.
Posting on Facebook, Mutarisi said Java called him on Monday, 30 October, in the company of Hood claiming that he had been sent by higher authorities to decampaign him and his business.
However, Mutarisi has categorically denied Java’s alleged claims that he had been sent by powerful people, saying the eccentric pastor is an attention seeker. Wrote Mutarisi:
<blockquote>
Passion Java called me yesterday aina Mudiwa claiming and lying kuti he was sent by higher authorities to campaign against me and my business.
It is a lie as no one has authorized or sent them and it is simply their attention-seeking behavior.
It is not the system that is fighting against me, but rather him and his vain friends who fail to comprehend why people still support and admire me without having to boast as they do.
They attempted to befriend me, but I declined to join their destructive cliques that aimed to undermine the values of our nation.
They have always desired a direct confrontation with me, despite my pleas for them to leave me alone.
Unfortunately, they have continuously attacked both me and my business without any valid reason.
Their actions stem from jealousy, as they are unable to attain the love and respect from the people of Zimbabwe that I effortlessly receive.
I am grateful to the people of Zimbabwe for their unwavering support, which has become a powerful shield against these haters.
</blockquote>
In response, Java accused Mutarisi of being too emotional “like a woman who is going through her menstrual cycle”. He said:
<blockquote>
Mutarisi too emotional kunge mukadzi ariku mwedzi!!! U paid insurance boys to cook papers and pay you but vakatariswa vese!
</blockquote>
Hood also responded to Mutarisi’s post, expressing bewilderment over the accusations. He said:
<blockquote>
Mukoma I am disappointed, tell me one day I ever disrespected you or worked against you?
Mandirwadzisa, why are you dragging me along, I repeatedly said you inspire me from the conversation, getting you guys to talk and solve issues, why do I have then need to look bad here…
My greatest crime is to get you guys on the phone, you are lying to people and God knows mukoma…
This is unbelievable, if you had an agenda you could have made it clear… put out where I threatened you or spoke badly… when is connecting people ever become a crime…
</blockquote>
In May this year, Mutarisi’s Nash Furnishers Headquarters in Harare was destroyed by fire, and recently, he had to send his workers home after his industrial complex had gone for a whole week without electricity, leading to speculation that he was being sabotaged by “the system”.

Passion Java And Mudiwa Hood Are Jealous Of Me, Says Tinashe Mutarisi

In what appears to be the abuse of religion by self-proclaimed prophets, Zimbabwean pastor <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Passion_Java">Passion Java</a> was recorded praying in “tounges” before his congregants and uttering inappropriate words.
In Christianity, speaking in tongues is when an individual speaks a language that he or she does not know.
However, in an undated video that circulated on social media platforms, Java used some words that are considered vulgar in Shona slang. Watch the video below for more:

In March 2022, Leshaan Da Gama exposed her alleged secret affair with Passion Java. Responding to the claims, Passion Java neither denied nor confirmed the reports that are circulating on social media. He said:
<blockquote>

</blockquote>
In early 2023, Java’s alleged mistress Yolanda Makaya claimed that she had been impregnated by the preacher who then ordered her to abort an eight-month pregnancy.
Makaya, who is the young sister to Java’s other alleged girlfriend Hillary, shared a 2.28-minute video on social media claiming Java’s security people had attempted to kidnap her.
In the video accessible on <a href="https://fb.watch/iKUjQwCQQb/">NewZimbabwe.com</a>‘s Facebook page, Makaya further claimed that Java wants the unborn baby dead. She said:
<blockquote>
I am eight months pregnant for Passion Java. I acknowledge my wrongdoing and take accountability for my part in all of this.
I just do not feel the repercussions I am facing are warranted at all. My life is in danger, I have had to flee my country because things got so bad that I was being followed and there was even a kidnap attempt.
His main objective is to kill our baby, even at this late stage he says he will not stop at anything until our baby is dead.
I am filled with paranoia, and anxiety and live in a constant state of fear because I always have to be on the move. I was almost drugged to induce early labour.
He has used the powers that be to terrorise and harass those who have tried to help me.

Baba Guti is about to die.
This is not a skit but a Prophetic word from God unto Baba Ach bishop Ezekiel Guti.
Our death is not the end if we can live on in our children and the younger generation.
For they are us and we are them. Our bodies are only but wilted leaves on the tree of life, and the distinction between past, present, and future is death.
While the whole world was celebrating your birthday, Baba, As l was ministering to the Lord in prayers and fastings, while in Dubai. l saw Celestial Beings celebrating your coming home, and l saw one who was holding a trumpet and a golden bowel saying, “lt is time, and the time is now”.
You have fought a good fight, you have kept the faith. Put thine house in Oder because at your departure, Z.A.O.G.A will be divided into two.

Just as man is appointed to die once, and after that, judgment comes.

Passion Java Accused Of Ordering Alleged Mistress To Terminate Pregnancy

Jiti musician Baba Harare, whose real name is Braveman Chizvino, has described ZANU PF sympathiser and preacher Passion Java, born Panganai Java, as a social media bully.
Baba Harare and Java have been exchanging jibes on social media and their “tiff” reportedly escalated after the former urged youths to register to vote.
Java also mocked Baba Harare, describing the musician as a spent force.
Speaking in an interview with NewsDay, Baba Harare said he was not fighting Java to get likes and loves on social media platforms. He said:
<blockquote>
Java is a bully. I do not like bullies, particularly on social media. I don’t think Java needs a reason to start antagonising anyone.
We might have bumped into each other on a few occasions, but I don’t know Java personally.
I believe a person should not be silent when insulted by a bully. My responses to him were meant to stand up against the shenanigans of bullies.
Standing up against a bully is out of principle. My true fans understand this and, in fact, they have rallied behind me.
We are encouraged as artistes that when someone is being unreasonably cruel, we should be quiet.
I, however, don’t subscribe to that because sometimes addressing issues is necessary.
Java, like any bully, needs to be addressed. It is evident in the reaction to my retaliation to his nonsense that people are fed up with him.
I think he is a very bad role model to society and his skewed perception of the world is damaging. So, when virtual paths are crossed, I had to tell him.
</blockquote>
Baba Harare recently released his seventh album titled Zimbabwean Giant.
The songs on the album are Haubvire, which features Jah Prayzah, Wandibaya Moyo, Ndauya featuring dancehall singer Freeman and Dan Lu P, Madhunamutuna, Munotichengeta featuring gospel singer Munyaradzi Munodawafa, Akanaka, Poto Inopisa featuring Mai Titi, Terera Mitemo featuring dancehall chanter Blot and Wazonditenderedza Pfungwa featuring urban groover ExQ. | <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/life-amp-style/article/200004969/java-is-a-bully-baba-harare">NewsDay</a>

Passion Java Is A Bully, I Stand Up To Bullies - Baba Harare

The family of the 17-year-old girl who died after she was hit by Passion Java’s vehicle along Seke Road on Tuesday has denied reports that the deceased was pregnant.
In a statement, family spokesperson, Elizabeth Mukaro, said it was not true that the late Joyce Tandi was pregnant.
She said the family was actually disturbed by reports circulating on social media that the late Joyce was an expecting mother.
Mukaro also the family were shocked by a statement released by Java in which he said he had offered them a scholarship. Said Mukaro:
<blockquote>
We want to put the record straight that the deceased was not pregnant.
We do not know how people came to suggest that she was pregnant.
At the same time, we were shocked by a statement released by Prophet Passion about the assistance he talked about.
His statement about the scholarship is a clear insult to the family considering that the deceased was young and he never showed himself to the family.
</blockquote>
The body of the late Joyce was collected on Thursday and was expected to be laid to rest on Friday.

<blockquote>
It is with much sadness reminiscing the Seke Road accident. The woman deceased could be my sister, wife or my mother. Painful painful painful it is.
Although I wasn’t there at the scene, the driver works for me and is acutely traumatized.
As of now, I can’t explain the accident as it’s still under police investigation.
However, we must all respect the deceased and her loved ones by being loving and human as we post comments. Death is no joke and nothing to gain social media stats from.
I extend my plea to sympathize with her family and the honour of giving her kids scholarships if she left any.
I’m still recouping from the whole ordeal but I send my impassioned message to the bereaved.

Pictures: Passion Java's Entourage Hits Pedestrian - Report

Africa University (AU) students Sunday chased self proclaimed prophet and ZANU PF sympathiser Passion Java and late President Robert Mugabe’s son Robert Junior away from the institution’s campus.
In a video doing rounds on social media, students, could be heard calling security and demanding that they be chucked out of the institution after he sought to replicate his usual money showering antics on top of his top of the range vehicles.
Usually, he is trailled by large crowds who mimic his comic antics and words with hope the monied ‘preacher’ could spare a few notes from his pocket.
Java is one of the many socialites who have endorsed President Emerson Mnangagwa’s bid to run for a second term in 2023.
Robert Jnr on the other hand is fresh from his maiden appearance at a Zanu PF rally since his father’s ouster in a coup in 2017.

Some social media users who responded to the statement said there was no need to beat about the bush since the man in the picture was “obviously” Passion Java, a local preacher. Said:
<blockquote>
What investigation is needed there when the proof of anything u need to investigate is there in the picture unless like usual with mutemo in Zim that certain people are more equal than others. All is there to see that the person u r referring to as a man is that JAVA character.
</blockquote>
Another one sid:
<blockquote>
Next to a man wearing a police hat. Who is managing this twitter handle. Are you a police officer or what who does not know the face of Passion Tswibidi Java. Are you afraid of arresting him for misconduct?
</blockquote>
Meanwhile, some believe that the picture was doctored while some say it be anyone, not Passion Java.
Anyone wearing police gear “without the authority of the commissioner will be guilty of an offence and liable to a fine not exceeding level five or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding six months or to both,” according to the Police Act.

Responses To Investigations On Picture Of "Passion Java" In Police Wear

Rockford Josphat, a high-riding Zimbabwean musician fondly known as Roki recently went on stage visibly drunk and fell, much to the chagrin of fans. 
He then failed to finish his performance at the Odyssey Hotel in Kadoma recently.
Roki’s performance followed after Enzo Ishall. The Patati Patata hitmaker is reported to have gone on stage, visibly drunk and performed one song whose lyrics he struggled to recite before falling down and taken off the stage.
A disgruntled fan only identified as Delight expressed anger over Roki’s behaviour. He said:
<blockquote>
The show was a waste of time and money. These artists should take promoters, fans, and venue owners seriously. Roki only performed one song before he fell down. He was drunk and everyone could see that. He was then taken to the swimming pool side where he lay down as people took pictures of him and with him.
The show was attended by a few people and after Roki’s stunt people started leaving the joint. That’s disrespectful to fans. He has been doing well but it seems old habits die hard. He is back to the controversial lifestyle that almost put an end to his career.
</blockquote>
Roki’s career was almost over after a long sabbatical that forced him into farming at his Seke home before signing under Passion Java Records where he produced the album Colours which carries songs such as the hit Patati Patata, Uchandifunga, Zviriko, Chidzoka remix among others.
Roki made history by becoming the first Zimbabwean artist to gunner a million views in 24 hours with Patati Patata which features legendary Kofie Olomide and Ray Vanny.
However, critics have accused his record label Passion Java Records of fabricating numbers.

Drunk Roki Falls On Stage Attracting The Wrath Of Fans

Popular Zimdancehall musician, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Seh_Calaz">Seh Calaz</a> this week said that he has no respect for self-styled prophet <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Passion_Java">Passion Java</a>.
In an internet on Power FM, Seh Calaz said about Passion Javas conduct:
<blockquote>
I now understand his behaviour. He is mad.
He takes everything as jokes but it’s not all matters of life that you can joke about.
I lost respect for him because he claims to be a pastor and yet instead of motivating people he boasts about his wealth
What kind of pastor does that?
I grew up in the ghetto. Does showing off your wealth motivate anyone. How can i motivate young people by calling them thugs while showing off my wealth.
Motivating people and showing off are two different things.
He should also not use his links the (Zanu-PF) party in a wrong way. He uses it to abuse people. A political party doesn’t belong to any single person.
It belongs to the people. Nomatter how wealthy you are, you can’t vote once like everyone else. Even if you have $50 million you can’t vote 10 million times.
You must use a political party to threaten the people. He is mad.
</blockquote>
Passion Java regularly uses social media platforms to post videos in which he boasts about the extent of his wealth and political influence in Zimbabwe. In several videos, he is seen showing off cars, houses, and expensive clothing.
Earlier this year, Passion Java was enlisted by Zanu PF to use his social media influence to drum up support for Emmerson Mnangagwa’s presidency ahead of the 2023 elections.

"I Have No Respect For Passion Java," Zimdancehall Musician Seh Calaz Speaks Out

Versatile singer <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Roki">“Roki”</a> born Rockford Josphat has refuted allegations that he bought views for his new hit single, Uchandifunga.
The song was uploaded on YouTube on 1 July and had achieved 425 000 views after four days but the views suddenly shot up to 1.2 million within a few hours, leaving observers amazed.
Uchandifunga became the fastest video to attain one million views by a Zimbabwean artist – beating a previous record held by Winky D who pulled one million views in just under a week with Mugarden.
The video has added just 200 000 more views in the three days after the shock jump, only fuelling suspicions that its 700 000 plus votes came from a bot.
But appearing on ZTN on Friday alongside <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Passion_Java">Passion Java</a>, who signed him to his Passion Java Records, Roki said:
<blockquote>If I get a million views, they say I’ve stolen. If others do it, they are cheered and told they’re good. Why? Is it because God is theirs only?</blockquote>
Java, a flamboyant pastor and self-styled prophet, also maintained that Roki’s views were legitimate. Said Java:
<blockquote>It’s embarrassing that as a country we’ve not had a video with one million views in one day.
Everyone knows my favourite artist is uncle Poptain. If I could buy views, it would probably for him.
I personally don’t have a video with one million views (on YouTube). Don’t you think if I could do it I would have bought some views for myself?</blockquote>
According to ZimLive, for less than US$5 000, you can buy one million views for your video on YouTube if it will make you feel good.

Roki, Passion Deny Singer Bought Views For Video On YouTube

South African based Malawian preacher Sheperd Bushiri a few hours ago said he survived an assassination attempt. Bushiri said he was warned about the danger yesterday and was travelling in a small unfamiliar car when his driver was held at gunpoint as he watched the hitmen surround his car.
Bushiri shared this on his Facebook page:
<blockquote>Thank you all for your prayers. I have just survived an attempted assassination where we were held at a gun point. More details will follow – and if possible, a video footage of how my car was surrounded by hit men will be released. Praise be to God, I was in a small unfamiliar car as I was alerted yesterday of the upcoming danger. I watched the whole scene including the guns being pointed at my driver.
For some time now – as well as yesterday after receiving the alert I have been alerting the authorities and high officials of the threats I’ve been receiving. However, as it has been for the past three years, their negligence leaves so much to be desired.
Pray for us, we are facing alot of battles in this country but one day, the world will hear the side of our story.</blockquote>
Last year Zimbabwean preacher <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Passion_Java">Passion Java</a> said Bushiri was going to die in December 2019.

WATCH: Rare Video Of Passion Java Prophesying In Church

Controversial pastor, Passion Java touched a raw nerve after he apparently mocked poor people in a video circulating on social media.
Java acquired a helicopter recently. In the video, he is heard saying:
<blockquote>Vaswera nenzara, vamwe tatenga helicopter (They spent the whole day without food while we bought a helicopter).</blockquote>
Social media users who responded to the jibe were generally unhappy with Java’s antics. One Instagram user said:
<blockquote>Ndiprophet prophet kana kuti izita reZimdancehall? I’m confused hanzi maswera nenzara 🤦🏽‍♂️ zvakaoma hazvo(Is he a true prophet or the title “prophet” is his Zimdancehall stage name).</blockquote>
Another social media user said that what Java did is against the teaching of the Holy Bible. Commented the user:
<blockquote>Pakuzoti vamwe vaswera nenzara uumm doesn’t the Bible that he preaches rebukes mocking the less privileged, does it not rebuke the rich that value their positions…. I’m not against him neither am I judging but what I know in everything we do God has a final say(how does a man of God make fun of the poor, doesn’t the Bible rebuke the rich who value their possessions).</blockquote>
However, there were some commentators who lept to Java’s defence with one saying:
<blockquote>MaZimba ane godo vakomana kuita kuputirwa negodo, iwe kana uchiti Prophet Passion vakatenga helicopter memari yetithe, try it iwewe tione uakaitenga…maZimba tinotambura because we do not celebrate the success of other people. Ukunyora ipapa uchiti arikudya mari dzevanhu asi its clear kuti haana kudya yako,_so what’s your problem?</blockquote>
Reports indicate that this is not the first time that Java has made controversial statements. While holidaying in Kariba sometime ago, Java was again captured in a video using street lingo vulgar word, Stonyeni, used to describe sex.

Pastor Passion Java Boasts Of Acquiring Helicopter, Mocks Hungry People

Passion Java Ministries’ leader Prophet Passion Java is set to lose his Kadoma stand to recover an undisclosed sum owed to ViewSat Limited, a United Kingdom-based telecommunications firm.
The Sunday Mail reports that Java is reportedly struggling to make-ends-meet after he was reportedly chucked out of his Borrowdale Brooke lodgings for failing to pay rentals. The publication could not reach him for comment as mobile phone was not reachable with officials at his church saying he was “away in Ethiopia”. Church members close to the 29 year-old man of the cloth said he had gone to Ethiopia to stay with his in-laws.
Due to mounting debts, a stand measuring 1 350m2 in Kadoma was recently attached by the Deputy Sheriff of the High Court and will be publicly auctioned by Bard Real Estate on February 3, 2017 at Raylton Sports Club in Harare.
