MADZIBABA Stephen, popularly known as ‘back to sender
prophet’, has sent tongues wagging in Zengeza, Chitungwiza after he opened a
night club.
Born Stephen Mugariri, the popular prophet has opened a
night club, butchery and canteen at the former Mbizi Night Club under a new
brand name, Executive Centre.
Residents are complaining over his decision to promote promiscuous
behavior by opening the club when he is known for turning the lost to the
kingdom of God.
“Kana anababa vezvemweya varivo vakuvhura mabhawa
zvakurevei isu tichitarisira kuti vanoponesa vanhu vakarasika,” said one of the
residents.
“He is now promoting prostitution in our area. What message
is he trying to send to our children?
“We are now doubting him because this behavior is not
associated with Godliness,” said one of the disgruntled residents.
Some of the people interviewed told this publication that
they are shocked by the recovery of cellphones lost to thieves in the bar and
an increased number of people visiting the place.
“After Madzibaba Stephen opened the club under a new name,
there is an increase on the number of prostitutes but what is surprising is
that anyone who losses his cellphone to thieves recovers it quickly,” said one
of the imbibers at the Executive Centre.
H-Metro visited the place on Sunday and found Madzibaba
Stephen playing pool and he confirmed ownership of the place saying he has
another bar operating in Mhondoro.
Guspy Warrior entertained imbibers at Executive Centre’s
official opening.
“I am not surprised by comments coming from people about
this but to be honest with you I have another bar operating at Karuru Business
Centre in Mhondoro and many questioned about it as well,” said Madzibaba
Stephen.
“After I opened the bar in Mhondoro, our first customers
have since stopped taking alcohol and the place is ever busy with new clients.
“Imbibers who visits our bars are safe from thieves and
those who lost their property in the bar will recover them quickly and we beg
them not to exert instant justice on offenders.
“My opening of the bar is not to turn beer drinkers to
church but residents begged me to create jobs for them in the community and
some call me daily to provide security at my shrines to earn money.
“It is on that background that I decided to open
butcheries, canteens and a night club both in Mhondoro and Zengeza.
“I created jobs for a number of people in those businesses
and I do not feel ashamed or take it as a sin since pastors do not ask how
people at church get their money.
“This is money from heathens that we are collecting to
change lives of those in our community.
“I cannot force people to turn to God but if they receive
grace from the Lord and His Spirit draws them to God not by closing beer halls
or night clubs.
“Transport operators do not deny drunkards entrance in
their buses because they are not holy and we cannot stop pastors from tobacco
farming when it is number one in earning foreign currency.
“Ipfungwa dzevasingade kunamata dzekuongorora nekusoropodza
mabasa evanhu nekuti varikutaura zvakadaro nekukereke kwacho havauye saka
hatirege kutora mari yavo tichibetsera vasina by opening businesses like bars.
“They will be shocked to find me on the DJ box spinning
music that entertains them and I am a good dancer although I like playing pool.
“Men are visiting our place to eat mazondo and stories
topping there are family issues and bedroom issues as well so I am not moved by
few people’s negative comments,” said Madzibaba Stephen.
Executive Centre is drawing people from as far as Dema and
Highfield that people are of the belief that Madzibaba Stephen is using his
spiritual powers to draw clients to his bar and butchery.
