Statement from ECG regarding false advert
Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) church 08 November 2016 ECG would like to categorically state that we have no business meeting scheduled for Harare, Zimbabwe. It has come to our attention that some malcontents bent on tarnishing the image of ECG as a Church and the person of Prophet Shepard Bushiri have been circulating a flyer on social media platforms to the effect that prophet Bushiri will be holding a business meeting in Zimbabwe.
ECG and its Prophet distances itself from these false adverts and advise the public that any adverts that are not on the ECG official website and TV channel (prophetic channel) are fake and should be dismissed as fraudulent.
It has also been brought to our attention that these rogue elements behind these fraudulent adverts have used the names of the Zimbabwean Vice President ED Mnangagwa and we would like to make clear to him that had such a meeting been planned our office would have followed due protocol to inform him.
As stated above ECG has nothing to do with this false advert which has been run by some media outlets in Zimbabwe. It is very unfortunate and seriously worrying to the profession of journalism to think that some publication would run a story based on a false advert without cross checking or verifying facts.
It is our hope that the relevant authorities in Zimbabwe will bring to book those behind this fraud.
