A woman from Kensington plots on the outskirts of Bulawayo, who thought she was pregnant because of her stomach which started swelling five months ago, was shocked when it was revealed to her by a prophet that her enormous bump was a result of witchcraft.
The truth was much worse when the woman, Anesu Tswangira
(20), who mistook the bulge for pregnancy, was prophesied on by Madzibaba
Emmanuel Mutumwa of the Johanne Masowe weChishanu sect, who revealed that the
swelling of her belly was caused by black magic.
Madzibaba Mutumwa sensationally revealed that one of her
husband, Mthokozisi Tshabalala’s female relatives who didn’t want her to become
intimate with her husband, stole her two panties and allegedly “fixed” them
with juju.
He revealed this on Saturday during a donation of
mealie-meal to villagers, mostly the elderly, in Sihlengeni under Chief
Sigola’s area, Matabeleland South province.
Tswangira was among the people who thronged Madzibaba
Mutumwa’s new shrine in Sihlengeni where he donated about 100 bags of
mealie-meal.
Things came to a halt when Madzibaba Mutumwa, who
apparently sensed that something was wrong with Tswangira’s “pregnancy”, went
into a trance-like state and summoned her to the front and prophesied over her.
“What you’re carrying is not a baby, but you are suffering
from a mysterious condition that led to uncontrollable swelling of your stomach
which makes you think you are pregnant. You were cursed by one of your
husband’s female relatives who didn’t want you to be intimate with him
(husband).
It was after she stole your two panties which she fixed
with juju. She stole the panties when she visited you and she hid them under a
big rock behind your house,” revealed Madzibaba Mutumwa before he ordered four
women to accompany Tswangira to her house to fetch the underwear so that he can
burn them.
A deathly silence engulfed the shrine a few minutes later
when the women later brought the cursed underwear which the prophet ordered to
be burnt as a way of removing the curse.
In an interview with B-Metro a terrified and emotionally
disturbed Tswangira said when the “pregnancy” first appeared she was excited
and hoped to give birth to a baby within nine months.
“When I noticed I was gaining weight around August last
year I thought I was pregnant since I had stopped menstruating. I was also
shocked when I recently visited the hospital for prenatal care and nurses told
me that I was not pregnant. I was confused until today when Madzibaba Mutumwa
told me that I was bewitched. It’s true that the condition started the same
month my two panties went missing and the suspect is one of my husband’s
relatives,” explained a teary Tswangira.
She insisted that before “healing” by Madzibaba Mutumwa
hers was a “pregnancy” that kept bulging and was very uncomfortable, adding
that the stomach left people offering her seats on public transport and asking
about her due date. B Metro
