Hundreds of Malawians stage vigil outside Lumbadzi Police where Bushiri spent first night

LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-Hundreds of Malawians held a vigil on Wednesday night at Lumbadzi Police Station where Prophet Shepherd Bushiri and Prophetess Mary Bushiri spent a night in custody.

They sang song of worship, praise and they were all in high spirits.

In an interview, one of the people, who came for Mchinji, said he couldn’t stand seeing the Prophet in custody and all he could do was to humble himself and stay the night close to the police station.

“My son was sent back from school. But Prophet Bushiri volunteered to pay school fees for him. There is no way I can show my love to him apart from coming to stand with him,” he said.

Random interviews revealed that the people came on their own after a word slipped about the Prophet where abouts.

The couple spent a night while waiting bail after they handed over to police on Wednesday November 18, 2020.
