There is nothing ‘enlightened’ about him and his so-called Enlightened Christian Gathering Church (ECG), the Malawi-born Shepherd Bushiri is a prophetic disaster that has exploded on the faces of believing folks in Southern Africa. And people in the region need to wake up and resist every initiative by this roving con artist to dupe and exploit them.
Addressed as the ‘man of the moment’, ‘major prophet’, ‘prophet of the most high’, Shepherd Bushiri is a charlatan by any stretch of imagination. He markets a prosperity gospel narrative that only prospers the shepherd and pauperizes the sheep. But the question is: Do the sheep know?
Bushiri uses his church- which is headquartered in Malawi with branches in South Africa, Botswana, Zambia, Tanzania, Namibia and Ethiopia to spread ignorance, darkness and deception. He issues fake prophecies and miracle schemes to enhance the church’s visibility, exploit gullible people, and of course raise enough money to purchase a jet, the Shepherd Bushiri Aircraft.
One of his most recent controversial miracle claims was that he ‘walked on air’. Yes Bushiri claims he could levitate and recorded it in a video. However, the video of Bushiri walking on air only shows the legs of an unidentified man dangling as if the man is holding onto something to support himself. The video does not show a complete image of the person who is supposed to have walked on air. So why didn’t Bushiri reveal himself fully ‘walking on air’?
