First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa sparked outrage among concerned believers after her visit to the Johane Masowe Shrine in Chiweshe last Friday. Many saw her visit as an intrusion, particularly given her position and the church’s tradition.

In a statement following the visit, Mrs. Mnangagwa expressed her pride in her religious background.

She said, “Believers are required to uphold the integrity of God’s word and adhere to its precepts. I’m pleased of my upbringing and religious foundation.

This last Friday, I was able to visit the church where I grew up, Johane Masowe eChishanu Chinhevere Shrine in Chiweshe, to meet some of the old and new members and spread the gospel to fellow believers.”

She continued, “In an effort to strengthen my ties to my community and the spiritual leaders in my hometown of Chiweshe, I had been routinely attending services at Johane Masowe eChishanu. I shared the special times I had when I first started praying at a tender age and my dedication to the church that helped shape my morals.”

Despite her words, many have labeled her visit as hypocritical, questioning the sincerity of her actions.

The visit has sparked a strong reaction from the public, with critics highlighting the perceived disconnect between her statements and the broader political context.
