Pastor spits fire over claims he killed Satan

CLERGYMAN Paseka Motsoeneng‚ popularly known as Pastor Mboro, is spitting fire over claims that he went to hell and killed Satan.

The religious leader found himself hogging headlines for all the wrong reasons yet again this week after a Facebook post shared from his account went viral.

The post included details of Mboro’s alleged visit to hell.

“When I got to hell‚ there was a queue of millions of people waiting to be braaied by Satan,” the post apparently read.

“I even saw some prominent South African politician­s.”

Mboro came out guns blazing against the claims and labelled this another smear campaign against him.

“My heart is bleeding over these rumours that I went to hell and killed the devil,” he said.

“This is insane, how can I go to hell and kill Satan? What power do I have to go to hell?”

The religious leader claimed that his Facebook account had been hacked and that he had reported the matter.

“They have a nerve to write lies about me just because my name is trending‚ I perform miracles and celebritie­s come to my church,” Mboro said.

This is not the first time the clergyman found himself at the centre of controvers­y.

Last year, a post by Mboro claiming to have visited heaven also went viral.

Mboro rubbished those claims‚ and claims that he was selling heaven pictures for R5 000 each.

The spotlight has once again been cast on the fiasco with the latest scandal. Mboro said people should bring proof that he went to heaven and sold pictures.

“Where is the proof of the picture of heaven that I sold‚ proof of killing Satan?” he asked.

“If anyone can bring that proof to me‚ I will sell everything I have and give it to that person.”
