Pastors are supposed to be leading –and not kutwa abaiche SAD
Gym trainers and pastors are topping the list nefyabupuba.
Castrate all pastors full stop!.
Sad. God comfort the wife and family.
The brand of Christianity promoted by late Chiluba was always going to end in this sort of thing. But when you come to think of it even Catholics clerics have abused children. Today there is a report on the BBC world service radio of children being abused i an Islamic school in Nigeria. So what to do now? Why is this allowed by the most high? Don’t expect a rational answer from believers.
Good Riddance. Hes going straight to Hell.
Word of advise for Zambia females. Stop believing and loving Pastors. They are not God. You are better off praying in your house with your family.
1.5 Nubian Princess: The fellowship function of religion still remains useful. At the Islamic school in Nigeria, a teacher tied a 4-year-old boy’s hands together and left him in the hot sun in order to make him confess to stealing a cellphone. The hands later swelled up after circulation was disturbed. Instead of rushing him to hospital the teacher administered some concoction. By the time he was taken to hospital it was too late as amputation of the hands became the only available option to save his life. I later saw the poor boy on BBC “Focus on Africa” tv programme. I looked at the ceiling, looked down and wondered if I was in the 21st century or 1350. We need to create UN colonies to sort out these problems.
why is it had to control erection? just go out running.
Wish Kanene hang himself because he is becoming addicted to sex crimes. or maybe he is innocent.
Even though pastor may have been innocent. really sad.
@2, Innocent pastors rarely hang themselves.
The most effective remedy for nyele is go and pee then have a cold shower. Very effective why Bantu bavutika name nyele ndiye chamene siniziba.
Ati “In a related development”. Just because they are two suicides it becomes a related development?
Docile fooools still attending these places!!
Satanists HA HAPPY.
I tend to wonder: Are these really Pastors? This is a real tragedy of our times
That’s the question. In Zambia everyone standing behind a pulpit can call themselves Pastor. Most of them are ravenous wolves in sheep clothing that Christ warned us about in the Holy scriptures.
I have a feeling someone on this comment section, will again accuse PF for this man’s crime.
I have a feeling that that someone will be a SATANIST.
I don’t trust most of the new wave of Pentecostal Pastors. A church full of youths and having overnights almost every other week. If they are not committing adultery, their message is always about planting a seed and how to get rich. The true church’s primary objectives is to prepare it’s members to save their souls in Jesus’s name regardless of their social status and God out of his mercies may grant them blessings of his choice. The 11 disciples with the exception of betrayer, if not all died poor and yet were rich in the eyes of the Lord. This pastor decided to use the Judas Iscariot formula, instead of asking for forgiveness and bear the consequences. Shame!
Haven’t Catholic clerics also abused children? Easy mate.
Why are they even called pastors when we don’t have pastors anymore. I pray from home. Recently a woman without brains in her head took her money to a pastor to help her buy a house and this so called pastor swindled her.
So much for the ‘Christian Nation’ (my @$s).
What a country! The amount of hypocrisy in this country is truly remarkable!
Now there’s a proliferation of fake ‘Prophets’. Even my sister has been brainwashed into believing these fake prophets who just keep on swindling her of her hard earned cash… it’s crazy man!
How do you conclude with a matter fact that someone committed suicide by taking Boom just because you found a bottle of boom laying around? Meanwhile, the post mortem isn’t even done yet? Lazy was Journalism! That’s what happened when you produce journalist from leaked examination. Next time, use the world,”allegedly”
May be alinwa mutototo, Congo dust
All these so-called pastors and preachers should be hanged. They only confuse the already brainless people…
From which tribes are these people? It looks to me that they’re good at everything
Too bad to lose so many lives, inclusive of the unreported cases. Counseling services should be encouraged .In the past before independence people lived in communal extended family set up. The men would sit in the ‘Nsaka’, and they shared problems and offered solutions. Nowadays, with the nuclear family set up which is only man, wife and children. People feel trapped when they are faced with problems as they have no one to confide in, who can keep their secrets and help them out of the problem. Coupled with lack of faith in God, they feel alone and the spirit from the devil of suicide weights them down until they take their lives. As intercessors we need to pray against this evil trend. Society and families should also be alert and sensitive to offer loving, non judgemental counsel for…
