He could not wait to share the news of his new love interest. He is smitten! Finally, after his painstakingly messy divorce from a Televangelist, Pastor Enoch Phiri was sure that he found love again at the hands of Prophetess Nkosazana, real name Noluthula 'Thuli' Shenxane. But in less than a week after publicly talking about his relationship, it has emerged that the woman whom he had hoped to would build his ministry with has skeletons in her closet.
LABELLED A PROPHETESS PROSTITUTE
Currently, traveling to Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia for ministry, Pastor Phiri learned while connecting flights that the woman to whom he declared his undying love is still married and has previously been married several times. He learned this after a scorned ex-lover from Polokwane known as Dr Thabang was said to be shocked to hear that she had moved on. In a vlog post titled "The rise of prostitute Prophetess...Prophetess Thuli" by Christian commentator and activist, Solomon Izang Ashoms who was once arrested for 20 days for failing to comply with an order directing him to refrain from making defamatory remarks about Alleluia Ministries prophet Alph Lukau, Solomon says he believes that women like Prophetess Nkosazana are sinners and need to repent. "I am flabbergasted by the rise of women charlatans who call themselves prophetesses. There is no purity, love for righteousness, or fear of God in them. They are young and beautiful, slaying, wear wigs and post pictures on social media." He says, that is a trap for them to acquire someone who can pay for their needs and they use them for money. "They keep moving from one man to another. There is a group of them such as Prophetess Nkosazana Thuli. This is the fourth or fifth pastor she has had." Solomon says she has previously been married to Pastor Vuyani Feni of the Christian Mission pre covid. "When the pastor ran into financial problems, she ran away to Port Elizabeth and got a baby by another man before moving to Bloemfontein."
He says the craving from people like Prophetess Nkosazana is to get someone to take care of them and milk money. "She then got engaged to another man in the North West province, got married and packed up and left him too and moved to Sebokeng and married Apostle TJ Sifatsa. All of this in a short span of time," Solomon says. "She wanted more from him, so she left and had a fling with a sangoma named Clive Botha who was still married but separated from his wife." After him, Solomon says she went to Polokwane and fell in love, and was living with Dr Thabang. "She is a shameless prophetess. The marriage is still not dissolved but she went on to marry other men. Now she left the doctor and got Pastor Phiri." Solomon adds that she also borrows money from people and never pays it back and uses people to speak at her gathering for free.
DENY DENY DENY
Prophetess Nkosazana denies being married "several times" and says Solomon is trying to reclaim glory by creating a false narrative about her. "If you listen to all his videos, his emphasis is my looks and how I dress. I work for a premium dealer, it's part of my work to match the brand I work for. I sell beauty products thus I never come out anyhow. I have never been in several marriages." She denies that she is still married. "I'm not still married. I've only ever married once. I'm a woman in ministry who does a lot of events, and it does not mean I marry every person I take a picture with. It's all a lie. I and doctor formally broke up in December." In a recording of a conversation between Prophetess Nkosazana and Dr. Thabang, and his mother, he explains that he mistreated her. "Dr Thabang admits to his mom that he is a problem, and he explains that since December we have had no proper relationship because I told him I want to leave."
OVERCOMING ABUSE
Prophetess Nkosazana says that she has survived abuse and this too shall pass. "I just want to add I know abuse. I've seen women stand for it till death whether physical or emotional and I love life, I need to be alive to preach the gospel," she says. "I will never stay in a relationship where a man is intentionally harming my mental well-being. I need to be in a good place to help the broken women God sends my way. I will stay when a man faces challenges or when we face challenges but not when a man is intentionally inflicting pain on me."
AN APOLOGY
She apologises to her current partner, Pastor Phiri for the "bad publicity" so early in their relationship. "I love and honour Pastor Phiri for not being threatened by my work, looks, and ministry," she says. "I'm not with Pastor Phiri to gain any status because if you check my background, I've laboured for God years before meeting him. But I want to apologise to him, his kids and family, his church, and my followers who love me for any damage this might have caused to them. As a Christian, I know it gets darker before the light comes from now, they must sit and behold the restoration power of God. Good things are on the way I will not share much."
PASTOR PHIRI IN THE DARK
Pastor Phiri says he knew of his lover's previous relationship with Dr Thabang. "She told me that she was been married to a pastor and they are just waiting for a decree of divorce," he says. "She also told me that after she separated from the pastor, she then dated the doctor in the picture." A smitten Pastor says he can only take what his new lover gives him and not listen too much to outside forces. "People always have something to say, especially when you are in the public eye. I need to use God's wisdom. At this point, I am not sure about other marriages that people are talking about. And, you will never know though she says it was a picture of matric dance." Pastor Phiri says he does not want to be disturbed by bad news while traveling. "I will deal with this when I get back to SA. I just want to focus on the ministry. I don't want this to disturb the work of God."
