BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)-Self-proclaimed prophet Harrison Njiragoma has said his 2025 warnings about xenophobic violence in South Africa are now unfolding, and has urged Malawians not to retaliate as tensions against foreign nationals escalate.
In a statement released this week, Njiragoma said that between July and September 2025 he repeatedly prophesied that South Africa would “rise against foreign nationals” in what he described as “catastrophic” attacks.
He claimed the vision was shown to him more than once and warned that the violence would reach a point where ordinary citizens, including landlords and landladies, would expose and hand over foreign tenants to police.
“At the time of the prophecy I asked everyone following me to prepare for the hard times ahead,” Njiragoma said. “I advised all foreigners in South Africa to save and send something back home for future use in case they were forced to return.”
The prophet now says “most parts” of the prophecy have been fulfilled, but cautioned that “there’s a lot more to take place.”
Addressing fellow Malawians, Njiragoma called for restraint. “I am therefore urging my fellow Malawians not to reiterate or revenge the incidents of xenophobic attacks as that will fuel up the anger of the beast and will result into more serious consequences nobody has ever imagined.”
He added: “We have to remain calm and patient until the storm is over. This will only run for a few weeks or months before signs die. And soon or later things will normalize.”
Njiragoma attributed the foresight to divine revelation, saying: “May the Praises and Glory be to God Jehovah Who causes His people to know the things to come before they begin to fall upon His people.”
The statement comes as Ghana has petitioned the African Union over recurring xenophobic attacks in South Africa, citing harassment and threats against African nationals. South African authorities have not commented on Njiragoma’s claims.
Prophecies are not official warnings, and the South African government has previously condemned xenophobic violence while urging communities to report crimes through legal channels.
