Controversial preacher Emmanuel Makandiwa has fired an open threat at the US government for being anti ZANU PF leader, Emmerson Mnangagwa.

Makandiwa said any government that put sanctions on Mnangagwa and his office, will soon go down.

In what clearly sounded like a curse against the US government, the preacher who has watched Mnangagwa openly likened to the God Almighty, claimed that this is because “there is no country world-over with the word of God such as this one – Zimbabwe.”

Although Makandiwa did not mention the US by name, it was clear he meant the US since there is no other country worldwide which has put sanctions on Mnangagwa and his ZANU PF party.

He made these proclamations while preaching at his United Family International Church’s Chitungwiza Basilica on Sunday. He said Zimbabwe will prosper soon despite the sanctions.

Makandiwa said those countries which fail to handle Zimbabwe’s matters will go down. He said: “Sanctions is not an economic term, it’s witchcraft. It means whatever power you have it will not work for you.

“We know how sanctions can destroy any nation regardless of who is in charge. But I believe that God has this country at heart and it is this God who is returning the country to prosperity. Zimbabwe will prosper very soon. There is no country with the word of God such as this one.

“God is about to do something. Kune dzimwe nyika dzichasara nemakey muhomwe asi chain dzakadonha kare. Zimbabwe has now become a very sensitive nation.

“It will cause other nations to go down if these nations are not careful. There are fortified nations that never had problems in the past, but they have to be very careful now in the way they handle Zimbabwe’s matters.”

Meanwhile, Makandiwa has been exposed for making false predictions, performing fake miracles and also stealing from worshippers using manipulations of Biblical scriptures he uses to threaten people that they will be cursed by God if they do not give him money in the form of tithes, offerings and seed money.
