Confied All those who invested their hard earned money to this charlatan are stupid .

Let's dance again😂😂😂

Who in their right mind expects such returns on their investments?! And the church is suddenly the best financial institution?

😂 the dumbest continent in the World.

Even the best fund manager can't guarantee you such returns

200000 to a metre in 6months some people are naive

The investors were indeed expecting miracles and their money miraculously disappeared.

gundomk

“If is smells like a fraud, best believe it is...” Argh! Never mind! Go deeper serving them right Papa!

This proves that churches need to be regulated just like any other business. Scammers & thieves must be stopped - stealing from vulnerable & gullible people makes it worse.

Lol lol i feel zilch for any of those stupid victims

Can someone tag the Pa-stole (sorry, Pastor's) BLF protectors? 😂😂😂

Y'all are naive if you going believe this bull written here. Even the figures don't make sense...you'll understand when they write about you one day.

TeeDashe Obviously christian religion has been seen as simplest way to riches by these so called Pastors.

DOLOLO

There's a special place in hell for liers and fraudsters like this

Can then show up here for a good laugh? Asseblief.

The congregation. Is it God they wanted or quick cash scheme. Can we stop blaming the church leaders for a minute and look at the crowd. Just for a hot minute. Like Wow!

Lol so I'd like to know which stock grows by 5750% in 6 months. On which market, of which economy on which country, on which planet in which universe?

How can one be so stupid? I don't get it.

Invest in miracle

GezindabaZA 😂😂😂😂😂 banyise major

Ilifa lezidenge lityiwa zingqondi.

Aisha_M_OL

How could a nomal person invest in that scam? it's clear and plain to differentiate between scam and investment, when are we going to wake up?

Ga Ba Jewe Ba Phapha Gampe. They Deserved That.

MrMotloung Man of God went deeper into their pockets

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Bushiri has topped my list, God thought he was opening a church kanti his opening a bank. This by far out plays the MMM, Herbalife, Steinhoff And SBV.

,🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bazalwanes are a crazy bunch.Chances are they will say halleluya afta hearing that they have lost their cash.They will raise their hands high and say halleluya

If it sounds too good to be true, guess what, it is

They thought such interest would rain 🌧 from where vele🤷🏿‍♀️

Banyise Bushiri....

Julius_S_Malema, manje?

Check the suit is very expensive with our South Africa money

Eat their money boy until they use their brains

Only a fool can believe that Bushiri and crew are men of God

They deserve it

A forex trader+pastor=double trouble ephindaphindeneyo

Pyramid scheme...thats what it is.anyway no one forced them, they chose to believe.

Iyhooo

ElayneOkaya Gakuyo reloaded....these people are scammers!

Ba nyese Bushiri, doomkops

A whip is needed

Its sad coz some even made loans just to invest in this trash, Mara banyise papa 😂😂😂😂😂😂

But i don't understand tlheng seriously if Papa can heal you perfom miracles of sort and able to see the problem in your life, they said he prophesied his arrest, but he failed to sèe that the investment scheme is Bogus, kgante dilo tsa lona di bereka jaang sentle

Where is the evidence of those investments? It can't just be we saw it..

Can someone tell me why the police are t involved here?

I wish I had gun I would kill those international pastor...all of the them

That rate or return is like returning from the dead

_ntandoyenkosi_

Lack of education is a problem here. Whoever invented must accept if their money disappeared. The higher the risk the greater the rewards

😂 😂 😂. Donation to Bushiri to enjoy life.

This is what happens when you try to cut corners and get rich instantly!!!!

Some people are stupid and ignorent ...what kind of interest rate is that...?

Peterman43 Lol

nkazimulomz

Banyese Bushiri, tshela thupa boy, batlhogo di thata batho ba. O baje dikoloi le matlo 😅😅😅

Tjhe ene e ba loma tjhelete ya bona

😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣

Balayekile👌👌

Who would genuinely expect such high returns in 6 months nogal?

How did we come this far? Ignorance and desperation? Sad!

If you are prepared to pay, why not.

🤣 🤣 MMM was nothing compared to what this guy is doing.

Which Bank guaranteed them such Interests

Stupid decision making. Poor thinking capacity. Heee he I receive, I receive. WHY SO AMBITIOUS, Believing Irrational Unbelievables.

Good. Now he must dissappear

How what's surprising you here... HOW MUCH WAS THE BAIL?

Don't tell me My favourite player invested here as well. Oh no Mabunda pls

Lol

The funny thing about our very own RSA citizen will want to support a 'FOREIGNER(PASTORS)' forgetting that this people don't give a Fuck about yall! The only thing they give a fuck about is to robber our citizens!

Shearing of flocks wool

Badle Bushiri, ungabayeki baDom..

May he Finish them all... Leave them. High & dry... We can't afford to feel. Sorry for people who don't feel sorry for themselves

RaRa__ But c’mon. I don’t even Bernie Madoff promised returns like these 😦

Im a memeber of ECG ,but this right here....where do yall get this information?hahahah this is beyond ridiculous .I mean do u ppl really think we r that gullible to invest R200,000 and expect to receive R11.5m .hey guys media propaganda is insane,a whole journalist wrote this..

2le_Fuze

They deserved it, where in the world can you get that much money in such a short space of time? I mean there is Old Mutual where you can invest money and other banks

Plus he sends R15mil to his native Malawi...monthly

It too good to true ans fooled.

Habe! There was a Pyramid Scheme as well 😳

It serves them right for being stupid 😂😂😂

Gullible flock should crowdfund for his bail and court cost next.

This tweet is extremely funny😂😂😂 people wanna get rich so fast

😯😶😐😐

Ey labafundisi bona. Sibhula ngapha nangapha

So churches are now investment agencies.. Mara go monate mo S.A mos

everyday some fun facts, that Dolly I was telling you about, who I can't say know to is a member of the ECG church, in the social movements class, this is what we we're debating today...you just can't make this stuff up 😂 she was obviously mad at me but made it up to her

Religion is the opium of the masses. The flock his too high to realise they have been robbed in broad daylight.

Where's Tiyani_Shuga13 to quote us bible verses?

South Africans are truly gullible

good layekile, can invest million into a scam but cant send your neighbours child to school

The Bible actually does say that a fool amd his/her money are soon parted ways! Too many fools in this Jesus industry in Africa!

Lol😂😂😂 people are fools kamo ntle..

That's about 6,500% ROI in 6 f^k!n months! Bantu base Africa do you even have an iota of cerebral in your craniums?

Return 5600% in both cases in 6 months. A miracle! 🙌

A person in their right mind would never fall for this but we can be really gullible as people

So Bushiri has banking license ? Or is an authorized FSP? Yho

What kinda investment would yield such returns? People are so gullible. ...and lazy

Does money grow's on trees this days?

Sorry to say, but 'as jy dom is moet jy sukkel'

Hecwishes! Warren Buffet se Moses!

Shemmm

Guess what?they will still call bushiri papa!!

RaRa__ Bona baya kwini?😂😂😂

How can someone be smart enough to make R1m but still be be stupid enough to believe that he can make R57.6m in 6 months by giving another man that R1m

KhandaniM Bushiri ubakhuthuze nge-verse Poof like David Copperfield.

Yoh Bushiri's followers are ride or dies.

KhandaniM Cursed people.....

They deserve losing their money .. too good to be true.. it’s a scam .. the Prophet.. you conman

KhandaniM South Africans will never learn instead of investing that money for good use because there is no way you can get so much

😂😂😂😂

the Word says, 'my people perish for lack of knowledge'.

I don’t want to say well deserved because it’s insensitive. But what a fok do I say...🤷🏿‍♂️

Wow lot of minas for a prophet

Im sorry but if anyone believes this bollox it’s your own fault...ill put it in capitals...THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS QUICK, EASY MONEY!!!!!!!!!

Stupid ppl

So they are supporting him and his family.They are suffering and he is living living life large. Bathong tsogang. God gave us brains for a reason. Ba jewa ba shebile.They wake up and go to work for him.Stop being willing victims

people must think before investing

Ppl hv money to waste ne

So sad, innocent people suffer through the hands of this fraudster.

Good! They must learn

Stupid. Anything returns in excess of 50% in a space of I month is fraud

This ppl wil never learn😅😅😅

Can u really put R1m and your return is R15.6 m to good to be true, it serves them right for believing on the impossible dream

Some things are too good to be true. 😂 😂 😂

This is called stupidity tax. Reserved for qualifying idiots. A fool and his money are soon parted.

All these Pentecostal churches are money making schemes am done

They must deport this fraudster back Malawi

And from there the bugger went and bought himself a jet, then tells the same people that poor people are lazy, and these sheep still call him Papa. Whats wrong with us afrikens

Watch Julius_S_Malema defend this guy again..

Unfortunately many fell for this😞. I know of 2

Wow these guys how do they do it 🤔 I’m sure there is muthi ngeke how can people be so dumb and give these fake pastors so much money

From where I sit, I can tell this Bushiri guy doesn’t even know the Bible, let alone possess investment management skills.

I only feel sorry for their kids only

Sure Major 1👍🏾

Ibambe ngakho.

YumzyBumzy So.... Saying his investment scheme was defrauded is suppose to be enough explanation for the pensioners who invested their lifetime savings? How bout start by selling all the assets you bought with their money? Jets , cars , hotels etc FokkenSkelm

Where was SARS and the financial regulators and the banks ? everyone profited from these people

Now I can locate where the MMM pyramid scheme is. . .this side of pitori

And they'll STILL defend him!

Tshotsho niDom too much😏🤣😅😭

Weee batata 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I receive

You have between R200k and R1 million and you still manage to fall for this foolishness?

People lost money by believing in this guy

Why am o not feeling anything for that blind loyalty?

iindlebe zabalandeli baka bushiri azikho buthuntu kuba zingeva qha baDOM😂😂😂

hahahhahahhahaaaaaa they were together in that crooked place bonabayakwini

🤷🏿‍♂️🤣

All these people must go to jail

If anyone invests R200k and expects R11.5 in 6 months, it implies they barely understand the value of money.

LeratoMannya Lol😂😂😂 our people don't learn😥

Abakwazidenge😂😂😂

How can people believe this though. Like how?

The “victims” should be arrested for being dangerously daft. These are the same people that vote during elections...how scary is that?

lmao you guys really need to find somebody else to start writing about. this is getting really tired now....🤣🤣🤣

Serves them right

It pours😂😂😂😂😂

Mara it's abuse because people used they're last savings.

Timmy_turner9 Banyise major. Wenza kahle.

Our people are so gullible. Oh God!!!!

Thixo aibo ☹️🤬😲😲😲

Wow

Real financial plan is never 'get rich quick' a seed don't attain maturity and bearing fruits in 1year let alone 6months . pipcraftplus

masoka5 abuPastor benu 😔

What’s with christians and miracles?

.....and they'll get caught out! ...God is not mocked!

And when he see that shit is about to hit the fan he tells them as if it's a prophecy.....and they get more stupid !!!

WtF

Lmfaooo 😂 😂 😂 😂 let them get scammed

Poor gullible parishioners.

I doubt even after this one they will learn. They will now go to Alpha Lukau because he apparently raises the dead. They will want him to resurrect their lost investments from Bushiri.

Julius_S_Malema didn't you speak highly of him?

😂😂😂😂😂😂 we learnt this from MMM Thina

To Bushiri followers , if your Papa was remorseful...he would sell his Jet and refund the gullible congregants..SIMPLE

Who the heck falls for this astonished

YumzyBumzy UkuThanda izinto. What does a pastor know abt investments.

There should be criminal charges against Bushiri

😂😂😂😂who gives 200k to a pastor!? Some people are unnecessarily dramatic yaz

Wait they believed it?😂😂😂😂

Tendaijoe Good for them. When are people going to sober up?

Gullible, let them lose

So people have that much money to play with

I’m sorry, but a fool and his money is soon parted.

😂😂😂😂 But we told them haai

Shame thats so noble of him! God bless his soul! 😎

It serves them right! Those people did not know what to do with their monies. And if a fool does not know what to do with his money, maybe the time is right for them to part ways! Bushiri did that! He played on their greed! The bznks will not give you that much returns, why him?

Imagine having parent who call Bushiri papa

Theendoftime - “For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect”. Matthew 24:24; New International Version

I'm not an investment savant, but even I know thats unrealistic. I guess common sense just isn't that common.

LeratoMannya One of my clients is supposed to receive 167 000 000 from him today so he can come buy 3cars. He showed me the sms from daddy.. Now wondering how much he invested...

Lol this guy was crying for his money. Stru

Mental slavery will be their end.

Langinno 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Tshotsho

Go deeper Papa. Papa go deeper,they want to receive

YvonneH26042560 And that is how he can afford his lavish lifestile

Hahahahaha😂😂😂😂

PhilMphela 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

😢☹️😭

It was not an investment, it was a donation. 🤣🤣🤣

AdvBarryRoux did you not report this a while back?

Well done bushiri,secure that bag my guy.

Kwaaatsha pha 😂😂😂🙈🙈

One time gofunddesi fund ! For 1 million Rand I will return 1 billion good wishes on you and your family in 1 day !

People need to differentiate a church from a profit making business. This scheme was just too good to be true.

Good bushiri ,badle lezi bhari

We you wanna get rich very quick

LeratoMannya Kudala abantu betshelwa ukuthi baqaphele ngemali yabo bt ke!!!! UZENZILE AKAKHALELWA!!!!

Sorry for the believers, they believe every nonsense, that guy can even call himself Jesus they say AMEN.

AdvBarryRoux 👀

Baphinde Bushit bade babhadle

But guys is Bushiri at fault for their stupidity? Asking for a friend

Man of God finessing them with the quickness. 🔥 KingOfFinesse BlackExcellence

PhilMphela These people lack wisdom and discernment, simple.

Claps for the major one😂😂😂😂😂😂they really believed him 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

PhilMphela This is just one of his miracles. Money disappearing into the false prophet pocket. Mental slavery killing black people

stress_jovis The proposed returns 👀 🙉 even MMM victims would have known its a scam.

abantu ba dom serious

Stupidity at its best. How can one invest such amount of money on a prophet

People are really stupid. Money does not grow on trees. Who will pay back R1m as R57m? Where does the other R56m come from, just for 1 person, imagine if its 300 people (like they say Hall was packed). 300 x 56 equal R16,800,000,000 that Bushiri must pay back as interest 😦😦😦

So they believed that money making scheme

Just like that nje

How can you be a millionnaire and be so naive about investments😒😒

Served them right. Why wud u give ur money 2 a charlatan alien 'pastor' who comes from a poor 3rd world country? Why doesn't he help his poverty stricken fellow Malawians. No alien quack from a shithole country can make me part with my hard earned money in the name of Jesus

A scam is a scam, no matter how you dress it up.

They deserve to be swindled..IDIOTS

What idiots would believe those kind of returns?

This is very much sad...bantfu bayovuka kudzala yati.

Ndithi mna tshotsho..qha qwaba..Ndisatshaya..

Ijooooo.

🤣🤣🤣

kgotso_za Befitting...😂

Even these guys discovered how dumb S.Africans are. All that is needed are the right words,right promises and WELCOME TO THE BAND WAGON OF FOOLS.

Clearly they lack spiritual superior logic. 😂😂😂😂😂

Great news.. It's a lesson

Wat did they expect vele? It serves them right...

Eish we never learn

They didn’t lose their money these people. Their money is well invested in the properties, vehicles and the jet Bushiri owns. These people are also owners of those very assets!

Tše ke dilo tša batho aba sa itiya

People have money yaz

But Bantu ba Tixo, we have been through this before! Now, we're just lazy to think!

He isn't an investment company, not in hedge funds - if only people can be curious on HOW...and not believe him cause he ended his sentences with words 'in the name of Jesus'?

FOOLS !!

lol how did anyone believe it?

AdvBarryRoux

😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂😂

Mbuyisa_Mbongo kudala ndisithi masenze!!!!!!!!

Major 1

How could you trust a person, irrespective of their status, who promises a 5,650% ROI in just 6 months? That's pure foolishness.

Well they walked right into that trap

Lol bayalunga

🤔 R1M to R56M in six months?How many percentage of return here..ridiculously!

Now we know why people were crying when he was going to appear in court. They knew if he is convicted they will never get their money. Bafe olwembiza.

Serves them well, church is not a broker or even a registered money provider

The flock will say media is lying ,our money is still safe , religion is dangerous

Falling for a scam while you see the board written 'we scam people' Ene dina le ma high school teachers

Confied Not realistic

Anyone who believes these returns deserves to be scammed

I dont feel sory for them , hey

Mrnomdi

People don't learn, clip circulate all over the country... About the Bushiri this and that. But still their major1. How do he justify this? No wonder Moneylaundering privatejet.

Yena ayakwini?there's lots of Banks out can invest in

He didn't point a gun on any of them, they have just volunteered to invest. They will learn from their mistake

I just don't understand why people keep falling for these get rich quick skeems.

Shem

Would love to hear his opening proposal to the congregation, how he started.

When we try to wake them up about their Papa they say we have demons I blame that anointing oil for this 😒😒 Bushiri bewitched them poor souls

The problem is that, the people who attend his church aren't on social media coz he tells them social media is the devil. That's why they'll never be as woke as those on social media and he'll continue milking them ciz they're simply stupid. Nigga targets the needy & gullible.

He used their money as capital to fund his hotel development.

R1M to generate R58M in six months? some brains for other people aren't functioning.

Are there people so stupid?

Whats wrong with these pastors and money.Remember miracle 2000 9

Hehehe

Bayalayeka... May they lose everything bazovuka emaqandeni

Aren't pyramid schemes illegal....... Kanti what is the government doing

Lmao hahahah eishhhh it's another Kipi deposit ; MMM; Pipcoin 😂😅 Mzansi will see flames here's another one at emalahleni (witbank) he's waking dead people alive 😅😂

GaRankuwaFM They ran a loss by putting the whole trust in a person whom they think can save them,what a shame,they will not retrieve their money back.

Sounds like a pyramid scheme

Now at what point do we applaud this Genius for pulling this scam off for so long ?

If it’s too good to be true it usually is...

This is just dumb shame

you are able to make a million, so you know what it took, but then you believe in a pyramid scheme investment. odd but okay.

Bloody idiots....serves them right

There is no Bank or stock or commodity on earth that can give you that kind of return in 6 months except a scam in which case you get no returns😂😂

mogoanehlabishi It's a Ponzi scheme they got scammed this fools; stop blaming Bushiri's hustle

People are so gullible

I thought the DA & EFF would have long opened a criminal case against Bushiri

HellenSeabi MMM, people are so gullible.

Red__Mos Tsho tsho

KoppeStamp_6 bra 🤣🤣

I once saw him with the guy called Ref Wayne, I am sure most people know about him.

The initial promised returns on the investments speaks volume on how this was a scam

Macala

LeboMokwena I dont feel sorry for them, batho re rata di shortcut man

Heheheeeeee ai South Africans and these get rich quick scams. They don't learn.

I was waiting for this moment in my life.😂

Skaba hemisi Papa just ask for more to release the funds 🤣

_MissNeke They kinda asked to be scammed. Who can be that stupid? Let papa Major One go. He was probably joking but was tempted by all the money he was getting, so he kept it. Major One is a victim here.😀

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 eish ya ne. I don't even sorry for them

😭😭😭😭😭😭 We need Jesus yazi...

Him again....

Sundown money is there also as those players of Sundowns they love that's criminal

Where fake pastors are concerned...intellect vanishes... How do you expect 11M from 200grand? No offence but I think there's something wrong cognitively with bana ba papa.

Those who invested R200,000 were promised R11.5m after six months. Those who invested R1m were promised R57.6m in six months. Even with FOREX there's no such high interest Just bcz the Bible says the Heaven's streets are made of gold doesn't mean any1 can get a piece of it 😅😅

I feel for aome public servants of the 30k who will take early retirement. They will certainly take their moola here to be blessed.

Eh banna

I want my money!!!

What do you say? The poor are the most gullible?

You have to bring this guy 'Bushiri' here at township so that we can lay hands on him ...re mmethe strong ..he thinks South Africa is a banana republic

I wonder how some people have such money but they are stupid

200k and you get 11.5m that's crazy..

...the 'flock' is dumb!!

ehhh...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and they fell for it...triple M all over again...pple dnt learn, buka manje

If it smells and sounds like like a scam, it certainly is even if it's announced from a pulpit!

Hehehe when i was convince dat i only had 3 beers yesterday,but i'm not convenince anymore
