A religious war has broken out between South Africa’s two most popular prophets as Prophet Paseka Mboro opens cases against prophet Shepherd Bushiri
Prophet Paseka “Mboro” Motsoeneng has opened three cases of fraud against his Malawian counterpart prophet Shepherd Bushiri’s disciples.
Mboro, of the Incredible Happenings Church, told Germiston and Alberton police that Bushiri’s henchmen stole his identity.
The prophet said his “good” name was used to con unsuspecting members of the public.
Bushiri heads the Enlightened Christian Gathering church, based in Pretoria.
Gauteng police spokesman Lungelo Dlamini according to sundayworl reportedly confirmed the three cases.
“They are being investigated, but no one has been arrested yet,” said Dlamini.
The imposters allegedly opened a fake Facebook account and impersonated Mboro.
They then posted messages purportedly from the prophet, in which they said he was in heaven with angels and saw God with a beautiful Xhosa woman.
The imposters also duped congregants into depositing money into a bank account in exchange for divine favours and intervention from God.
“As soon as people deposit money, the victims are blocked and deleted from the said Facebook page,” read Mboro’s statement.
