Some traditional healers in the country have condemned people who flock to some prophets for their healing instead of seeking medication from hospitals.
A traditional healer, popularly known as Dr Chalwe Mukuka, has warned that those Zambians seeking medication from fake prophets are doing that at their own risk.
Dr Chalwe told ZANIS in an interview in Lusaka insinuations of spiritual healing by the so-called prophets are fake and not beneficial.
He said Zambians should be careful with dubious prophets who have engulfed the nation because seeking healing from such people will for sure affect their lives.
The herbalist stressed that people with different ailments should only seek medication from hospitals as opposed to inclining themselves to deceitful prophets.
Dr Chalwe said he did not dismiss the fact that some prophets are genuine but was quick to add that there are some of them who have evaded the nation on profit gains.
And another traditional healer, Gerald Nyoni, said government should step up efforts in clamping down fake prophets who are trying to mislead Zambians to for-go conventional medication in preference to their fake prayers.
Dr Nyoni said there are currently fake prophets who are cheating Zambians that they can even heal HIV -AIDS patients through their prayers, a thing he said was a dream.
He stated that Zambians should not be cheated by lies that some prophets in the country are offering best services in terms of treating people using their fake prayers without God’s blessings.
He also called on the Registrar of Societies to close fake churches whose mission is to deceive the Zambian people.
He noted that some so-called prophets are taking advantage of desperate Zambians by cheating them that they can cure some diseases as opposed to seeking hospital remedies.
Parliament should enact laws that criminalise crooked adverts by sangomas and “prophets” who make outrageous claims miracles from hiv/aids cure, cancer, bring back lost lover diabetes. Also criminalise the penis enlargement posters on every wall and street light pole. This is so disgusting in this so called “christian nation”. We need SANITY please.
prophets of profits and herbalists are the same,they have the same clientele.
Herbalists, fake prophets, spiritists, taditional healers, etc are in the same category of people who try to get money from unsuspecting citizens by false pretencies. You are all the same people, in the same business.
I could have sworn that some Prophets were warning about Fake Herbalists,…….
They are all cockerels in the same pen with very few hens to jump on. The field is replete with fake opportunists who have made everyone forget that God is found right where one is. Why should you travel anywhere to experience God!? Even Prophecy can find you, wherever you go. Sober up, people, and do the duty to your community as you should. Forget this hype about prophets who will only bring your house down on you! This warning is as old as the oldest profession…
So the herbalists are saying that we should consult them tefyo? He should call a spade a spade and say that they (herbalists) have lost market.
Chachine Id rather believe a herbalist because I can see his muti. These prophets’ dreams are only in their heads. Cant they show us what they see in a mirror like some witchfinders do in Luanshya?
He is losing customers… where there is visible vapours having their provenance in ignited carbonaceous material, there is conflagration 🙂

Wise advice that requires serious attention. Why are people so gullible? It must be hard to be an ignoramus.
