Five members of the same family were charged with the murder of a prophet who had been called to their their home in the village of Mazonde, Zimbabwe to help them cleanse their house of evil spirits.

According to local newspaper, Zed 24 News, the accused family identified as Leanmore Mutero, Tonderai Muswere, Michael Muchengeti, Manasa Mutero and Nicholas Mutero, appeared at the High Court in Harare facing a murder charge for participating in the death of self-professed Prophet Shamiso Kanyama, who accidentally died during a healing ceremony.

Pastor Kanyama had reportedly asked his followers to bury him alive so that he could summon more cleansing powers to heal the family that had been plagued by mysterious deaths.

Zed 24 News reports that High Court Justice Owen Tagu heard how on that day, the late pastor had been invited to attend the home in the Muzarabani district, which is situated along the Mozambique-Zimbabwe border, by their priest, Zvidzai Muchengeti.

The five men had requested the priest to help them clean their home of evil spirits, because it was causing mysterious deaths in their family.

Responding to their request to perform a healing ceremony, Kanyama had ordered his followers to dig a grave and bury him alive because that was the way he summoned more healing powers to ward off evil spirits. However, the plan backfired on the prophet when instead of being resurrected as he supposed, the men dug up the grave again to find him dead.

Kanyama helped to dig his own grave before praying and jumping inside, Father Zvidzai, who has turned State witness, told the High Court. He continued that after laying face down in the grave, he ordered his followers to start covering him with soil.

“He pegged a grave-shaped pit in front of my hut and asked for help to dig the pit,” Zvidzai continued. “Deceased requested to be buried alive so that he would gain power to drive away the evil forces.”

Fearing for the life of the prophet as the men were in the process of filling the grave, he requested the men to stop what they were doing, Joseph Taderera told Justice Tagu.

However, they ignored his pleas when Kanyama urged them to continue the process of burying him alive, stating that he would rise from the grave unharmed.

“I warned the men about the danger of their actions, but my advice fell on deaf ears because Kanyama shouted, telling me that I am disturbing his angels, and urged them to continue filling the grave, saying that he would later come out alive,” Taderera said.

That shouldn't be the question. It should be "what weed did he smoke before he authorized his own live funeral" He came to eradicate evil spirits........ And got eradicated himself

Maybe God commanded him to do that just like he commanded Abraham to sacrifice Isaac

It was God's will

God spoke to him to kill himself so he can prove to the world how great it is

These are things of the spirit

You won't understand

Jehovah is great

Leave them. This is just the beginning. More will come until people like Muafrika2 and Mrzenographer will start using their brains rather than their book(word of their gods) to live their lives. The man died by the word of Eusebius he read, that GREATER THINGS DONE BY JESUS SHALL HE ALSO DO.
ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE ALLOWED THE EVIL CHRISTIAN FAITH TO OVERCOME THEIR REASONING HAVE DIED SIMILAR DEATH. ONE ENTERED LION'S DEN AND HE WAS CHEWED TO DEATH. goddys was one of those who practised the prophecy like as of old(lying prophecy called Urim) and he failed woefully.

Funny people . That's if the story is true

Okay. He is on his own.

If he likes he should ask them to nail him to the cross and plan to ressurect the third day.

@yourmeme
He was trying to be like him(Jesus)

What a stupid murder cover-up story. So the pastor made no effort to get out when he started suffocating? I don't buy it. They murdered him.

Or it could just be a hoax

Nigerian fake pastors and prophets are way smarter. They don't engage in such risky stunts like jumping from the sky, flying faulty jets or hiring cheap inexperienced pilots, fasting 40 days and night, walking on water, falling under anointing themselves especially on a hard concrete floor instead they delegate the sheep to take the fall.

While they manage events in padded auditorium the sheep with their inexperience would be sent to very hostile environment to build branches and forward monetary returns to Headquarters. Southern African prophets and fake pastors are still evolving, they have not yet known the limits of their trickery and stunts

Jesus did not ask his followers to die and ressurect na.

This is so sad.

But not withstanding, I agree 100% with @4kings!!!

Temporal lobe eplilepsy, mental illness, hallucinatory mushrooms, drunkeness, oxygen deprivation, taking excessive amounts of cough medicine, and climbing high mountains without a proper breathing apparatus, are the only things in this world that can make a man to hear "god"!!!

To be LIKE HIM

Jesus died and resurrected, didn't he?

You are confused

Obviously

He told them to do greater works, so I guess the pastor acted in faith.

Shouldnt you start telling christians to ascend into the heavens like Jesus did?

naah, the pastor acted on his own accord.

What, showboating in this serious situation.
I don't agree, I believe he acted in faith, probably he will wake up another day. lol

Why the denial.
Don't u think the pastor knows that it is not by strength - sayest the lord.
And call upon the lord and he would show u great and mighty things which thou knowest not - says his God (jer 33:3)

Therefore he acted in faith in his God.
