Bishop Dominic Nyondo shielding his face from cameras at the Kitwe magistrate’s court after he appeared for defilement yesterday
Three Holy Fire Christian Ministry Church members have testified how a bishop allegedly sexually abused them on the pretext that he was cleansing them of the evil spirits.
This is in a case in which Dominic Nyondo of Holy Fire Christian Ministry Church is charged with three counts of defilement, five of rape and one count of indecent assault.
Nyondo of house number 853, Ipusukilo Township, allegedly sexually abused nine female church members aged between 14 and 45 years on the pretext that he was removing ghosts from them.
The offences were allegedly committed between April 2010 and June 2014.
Testifying in the matter, a 14-year-old girl told senior magistrate Daniel Musonda that Nyondo shaved her pubic hair as a procedure in the process of cleansing her from evil spirits.
The girl, who could not recall the actual date, narrated that she went to Nyondo’s house where he informed her that the Holy Spirit had instructed him to pray for her at the mountain so that she could be delivered from evil spirits.
She told the court that Nyondo gave her K5.00 to buy paraffin, matches, salt and Cowbell milk powder.
The court heard that the girl was further told to buy pieces of white and black cloth and instructed to meet the accused person at the bridge along the Kafue River.
“When we reached the bridge, he made me kneel down and asked me to offer a prayer of forgiveness. He then took a razor blade and asked me to remove my clothes before shaving my private parts,” the girl said.
The girl said she started crying and that was how Nyondo told her that they would continue the process on another day as the evil spirits had to be removed.
Another witness, a grade 11 pupil, told the court that the accused had sex with her on two occasions in December 2011.
The girl told the court that Nyondo told her that the Holy Spirit had instructed him to pray for her in secrecy and that she needed to buy paraffin and sweets which would be used at the mountain.
The court heard that when they reached the mountain, she was asked to swear using a Bible that she would not tell anyone, otherwise she would die.
She said the accused person told her that they should continue having sex for months since she was a virgin until the evil spirits stopped tormenting her.
Another witness testified how Nyondo ‘anointed’ her with a mixture of milk and anointing oil to allegedly remove ghosts from her before having sex with her.

People lets open our eyes and lets beware of such kind of pastors with funny kind of names like Holy Fire church, where in the Holy Bible do we find Holy fire? My advise to women especially, I know women go through a lot but please God will still hear you if you kneel down and pray alone in a closet. This is what happens when you seek advise from wrong men of God. not, eh lelo ni uku, mailo ni uko, awe ni kuli ba Nyondo and these are the results.

The blame lies squarely on the ladies.The bible is supposed to be a measuring stick to anything that happens in the world today. If a pastor asks you to do funny things, go back to the drawing board (ie the bible) and see what it says. That way you are able to make an informed decision

If our ladies hear well they will not find themselves in such mishaps. But they are busy being misled by the magnitude ones church has, why not stick to the ancient churches were such things are rarely if not heard of. pantu mwatemwa ukuselela kuli onse uwaisa ati iyo ifwe tupepa kuli ba new pastor or bishop of the new formed church. churches are not there to show off awe iyo.

To be a successful “pastor” one has to have a “First Lady” mind you, that’s what they call “born again” “pastors wives” these days!
In the real world utuma pastors, bishops and prophets are just a bunch of greedy con-men and prostitutes doing there thing to survive.
Only vulnerable and desperate people fall into such traps.

This should serve as an eye opener to the registrar of societies. The Govt through the registrar of societies must conduct a clean up exercise and de-register all the mushrooming churches that do not even belong to any of the three mother bodies. I do not think Holy fire Ministries belong to any mother body.
