John Nundwe’s rape case adjourned to April 14th, 2026

The Lusaka Magistrate Court has adjourned the matter in which Miracle Impact Ministries Overseer, John Nundwe, is accused of rape to April 14th, 2026 for ruling on case to answer.

In February 2026, Nundwe, 52 requested the Lusaka Magistrate Court to acquit him of the rape allegations.

The media reports that Nundwe also known to his followers as John General, argued that the prosecution team had failed to prove the essential elements of rape.

When the matter came up today, Lusaka Magistrate, Amy Masoja, indicated that the ruling was not ready, hence adjourned the case to April 14th, 2026.

Meanwhile, a 38 year old man of Lusaka has been found guilty of incest, contrary to chapter 87 of the Penal Code, of the Laws of Zambia.

Nephas Sikali, was charged with two counts of incest but has however been acquitted of one count.

Sikali is alleged to have had carnal knowledge of his biological daughter on June 18th, 2025, in the first count and June 21st, 2025, in the second count.

Lusaka Magistrate, Kawama Mwanfuli, has since committed Sikali to the Lusaka High Court for sentencing.
