Prophet Bushiri had me arrested for demanding payment- Zambian businessman

Share

A Zambian Businessman has appealed to the South African Government to ensure that Justice prevails in a matter were Prophet Shepherd Bushiri has been arrested on charges relating to fraud, money laundering and contravention of the Prevention of Organised Crime Act.

Shadreck Kapasa, who is involved in mining business, has lamented how Prophet Bushiri had him arrested 2 years ago for demanding payment of his money after supplying 500 grams of Gold worth 16 Million US dollars. Kapasa was arrested in South Africa on allegations of fraud.

Mr. Kapasa told journalists in Lusaka that he was requested to travel to South African to receive his payment but instead was arrested by Police after Prophet Bushiri reported him as a fraudster together with his 3 other Zambian business associates Daniel Phiri, Andrey Nawa and Ephraim Musukwa

Mr. Kapasa said he served 8 months together, in a South African Prison and was released after interventions by Zambian High Commissioner to South Africa Emmanuel Mwamba and has to date not received his money.

Mr. Kapasa is disappointed that such acts are being perpetuated by a Man of God and has questioned his standing with God.

He has also cautioned Zambian Businessmen who are in the process of engaging in business with Prophet Bushiri to disengage themselves.

The Self-proclaimed prophet Bushiri and his wife who on Monday appeared in Court were arrested by the Hawks on Friday last week in Rustenburg on charges of fraud and money laundering.

Hawks spokesperson Hangwani Mulaudzi confirmed the arrest and said the case against the couple was linked to alleged offences of fraud and money laundering, as well as the contravention of the Prevention of Organised Crime Act (POCA), which had been committed from 2015.

The contravention of the Act was in relation to Exchange Control Regulations relating to foreign currency of $1 147 200 (around R15m).

  1. Let’s not judge but leave this case for God to judge. If we continue commenting, we will end up in the trap of sin. Satan might use this case for both christians and non christians to sin. Let’s pray that the truth be exposed.

  2. I am not an expert on the price of gold, but “500 grams of Gold worth 16 Million US dollars” seems way too high.

    Maybe this gold was laced with “anointed water”?

    It is very sad that vultures always appear when someone is down.

    I do not support Bushiri, but frankly, someone should give him an award for being such a good business man. There are those that will say he is making money off the back of poor people. The truth is every single company exploits the poor.

    • I always wonder why ka chatile is called a man of God and yet he is just a conman. Utu bantu twamusango uyu tu fwile uku to poona. Twaibila sana abantu .

    • Good businessman when he has defrauded the sick a vulnerable? This man was victimized by Bushiri, locked up, his passport to SA blacklisted because this man is alleged to have oiled people and now that truth is emerging, you want him to continue siting? This is his best opportunity to be heard and Hawks will likely engage him as witness. He claims to have documentation of the transaction, so let him go and prove his case.

  3. At the pick of ZCCM operations I worked at the Ndola Copper Refinery. This is where ZCCM’s sole Gold production plant was located.
    Production from that plant was 12 Kg of Gold and about 2000kg silver.
    Where did these guys get 500 kg of gold as some one has correctly asserted the figures.
    Do I know the definition of criminal?

  4. Yes he nid 2 face law o he cn b hanged by da way he’s nt a man of God he z jst like witchdoctors nd most pipo says he z a witch

  5. This BUSHILU is just a common kawalala mascarading as a man of God. Which genuine Man of God can have the milliions of dollars that this little CRIMINAL has amassed? No wonder we denied him entry into Zambia because he is a thief.

  6. Hurry Thats wisdom leave everything to God. Bushiri is not my cup of tea, the book of life says in Matthew 7:1-2 “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

    • Very true Atambwali let God himself judge him because he is the only one who sees what goes around in secret places.

  7. Bushiri abandons his so called anointing oil and hires a top class lawyer who represented convicted murderer Pretorius. Shame wake up

    The government of SA work to ensure that this criminal forfeits everything and deport him..

  8. He supplied 500 grams of gold for $16 million the man is definitely a fraudster. And an ***** for delivering the gold without receiving payment first. That will teach him to deal with false prophets.

  9. With due respect to short people, they seem to be a problem. Tu wambwena pi are always a problem in any society. Hitler, Mussolini, Chiluba Fredrick, chairman Mao, Kim il Jung and others. Tu shortie are always aggressive to compensate for their lack of physical strength, they are loud mouthed so that they are heard. Now look at this vertically challenged chap Bushiri. Crooked!

  10. In Africa we see things differently, who expected that a quantum physicist like Dr Guy Scott would believe that Miles Bwalya Sampa could fit into Sata’s shoes? Even very educated men believe that Sherpard Bushiri is a prophet, some even older than Bushiri himself. Anyway people believe anything, it’s just a belief even if it looks absurd from the outset

  11. For this man to be jailed indeed there was something sinister that he was doing. A case of the kettle calling the pot black .

    • Fake Story……if it was 500grams it can’t cost $16m then 500kg that’s impossible to have,the guy didn’t do his homework well before getting to social media..that’s a fail dude!

      Leave him alone!!

  12. This is another self confessing thief. How can you sell 500g of gold at $16M? You are a conman. If its 500kg then it must be miracle gold and it belongs to Bushiri. I don’t expect an individual to have 500kg of gold cause even big gold mines that can be a milestone. As if someone started digging gold from childhood. Naiwe wine kuti twakulonga mukalyati just like your business partner.

  13. An ounce of gold is about 28g and this one ounce sales at approximately $1300. In 500g, there are only 18 ounces at the most, which can only give you $24000 at the most. Where has $16m come from?

  14. Surely how can he SELL 500g of GOLD at that cost? No wonder BUSHIRI sent him in jail.The cost was too high. In normal business nobody can buy 500g of Gold at $16m.

  15. Man of God Bushiri only those who don’t know will comment what they don’t know leave every thing in Gods hand we love you prophat

  16. Touch not my anointed ones and do my PROPHETS no harm so people let’s be careful on this matter because the Heavens are watching

  17. South Africans have no brain, people to complain are Zambians. That Gold is from Mkushi. Tonnes of gold is being transported off the country every day. We have allowed fake smelters operating in this country by foreigners.The Revenue being collected from that church is high. South Africans appreciate the hard work this guy has done, tourist industry is making money every Monday from international visitors. Let God close chapter.

    • Some of the people the dont unlise before,coz that is sencelas,my dear you would have ask people who have wesidom not people who are smart but nothing,to my side I think you need to get back your words and ask for forgiveness,coz you didn’t plan it very well

  18. If it’s true then what were you waiting for I think ure lying wat if this scenario never occurred zambians naimwe mule ikalafye.
