Jah Prayzah Demands that ZBC Cameras be Switched Off

Jah Prayzah demands that ZBC cameras be switched off before he could perform at the inaugural “Bira Rembira” held recently at Gwanzura Stadium in Highfield.

The event was organised by the Ministry of Sport, Recreation, Arts and Culture. Jah Prayzah recently introduced a policy of charging for videography rights. While Jah Prayzah’s stance is understandable from a business perspective, the momentary disruption set tongues wagging, especially considering that it was a national event.

In an interview, the singer’s manager, Keen Mushapaidze, said: “I have no comment regarding the incident. I suggest you refer to the statement issued by the artiste (Jah Prayzah) on his social media platform(s).”

One of the show’s promoters, Partson “Chipaz” Chimbodza, indicated all artistes were duly notified that the event was now backed by Government.

“Initially intended as a collaboration between promoters and artistes, the ‘Bira Rembira’ subsequently gained Government support due to its perceived significance. I am unable to comment on Government’s specific procedures for broadcasting or recording such events. However, I can confirm that the festival was a national event, and all artistes were notified accordingly.”

A prophet who indecently assaulted a juvenile under the guise of exorcising her evil spirits has been issued with a warrant of arrest.

Boniface Mwareka of Entumbane suburb appeared before Bulawayo provincial magistrate, Mr Matthew Mutiro, on charges of aggravated indecent assault. Mwareka was scheduled to appear in court last week for judgment but didn’t show up, prompting the warrant for his arrest.

“The accused instructed the complainant to change her uniform as he wanted to pray for her. He instructed the girl to put her head inside a dish with milk after which he instructed the complainant to remove her clothes and squat above the same dish.

“The accused then started washing the girl’s private parts with milk before inserting his finger inside her private parts under the guise of cleansing her. The matter only came to light when the complainant told her mother what had transpired. A report was made to the police leading to Mwareka’s arrest.”
