The Bulawayo City Council planning a clampdown on open-air churches across the city in response to complaints by residents of noise pollution.
Speaking at a full council meeting last week, Bulawayo deputy mayor Mlandu Ncube said:
<blockquote>
The city is now dominated by flags of different churches. They are spreading cholera because they are using the bush as ablution facilities. I am saying let’s remove these churches from the city.
</blockquote>
Ward 4 Councillor Silas Chigora said the problem should be dealt with once and for all. Chigora said:
<blockquote>
We are shocked whether it’s worshipping or money-spinning activities, let’s write to these churches to say they should vacate those sites.
Let us (also) engage someone like a debt collector who will go around removing these people because I am tired of the complaints of these churches.
My community respects the environment, they respect trees, they respect rocks, they respect hills and mountains.
Let’s engage someone to round up these churches just like we did in George Silundika, let’s do that and deal with this problem once and for all.
</blockquote>
Ward 27 councillor Alderman Siboniso Khumalo said the churches should apply for stands to construct places of worship.
Recently, Churches Council of Africa (CCA) founder and president Rocky Moyo said local authorities were demanding large amounts of money. | <a href="https://businesstimes.co.zw/council-plots-crackdown-on-open-air-churches/">Business Times</a>

Bulawayo Council Plans Crackdown On Open Air Churches

Mothers who are members of Apostolic sects, who are referred to as madzimai, have resorted to sneaking to clinics behind their husbands’ backs to vaccinate their babies against measles.
Some Apostolic sects consider vaccination taboo and forbid members from getting medical care insisting that all their health problems are solved through prayers.
Adherents put their faith in prayer, holy water and other measures to ward off disease or cure illnesses.
Zimbabwe has been grappling with a deadly measles outbreak since April 2022 which has killed more than 700 children across the country.
Many were unvaccinated because of religious reasons, Information Minister Monica Mutsvangwa said.
At Mbare Polyclinic in Harare, some women were taken to the back room to get their children vaccinated in secret, and in defiance of religious doctrine that forbids them from using modern medicines.
Lewis Foya, a nurse at the clinic told The Associated Press that the advent of the measles outbreak saw children dying so they are now coming secretly to get help. He added:
<blockquote>
They have a belief that if they get vaccinated, they become unholy so that’s the doctrine that they pass down to the women.
</blockquote>
Foya said the patriarchy in the church means women have “no power to openly say no” to instructions.
As a result, to save their children, some mothers visit clinics in secret, sometimes under the cover of the night and without their husbands knowing.
At the Mbare clinic, one mother who identified herself as Winnet Musiyarira said people had learned from the vaccine hesitancy prevalent during the COVID-19 pandemic. She said:
<blockquote>
A lot of people were misinformed during that COVID-19 period because they were told that when you get vaccinated there will be after-effects.
So due to that a lot of people lost their lives and it was important for everybody to take that seriously.
So when I heard about measles I just said I have to take my kids to the hospital and get them vaccinated.
</blockquote>
Musiyarira said she wasn´t a member of a religious group but some were women wearing matching white headscarves to indicate they are part of an Apostolic church and were at the Mbare clinic to get their children vaccinated secretly.
The women, however, declined to speak to The Associated Press for fear of reprisal from church leaders. | <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-11238093/Secret-vaccinations-help-Zimbabwe-mothers-protect-children.html">MailOnline</a>

"Madzimai" Vaccinate Children Secretly In Defiance Of Church Doctrine

A member of the Johanne Marange Apostolic sect says it is an offence for any of their members to receive medical treatment.
Dorcas Mhere (47), the senior wife of Clever Maveto, said they have been using holy water, salt and cooking oil to cure all her children when they fall ill since the early 1980s.
The Maveto family, from Bikita District in Masvingo Province, is accused of burying children in a mass grave after they allegedly succumbed to measles.
Reports claimed Maveto (67), a polygamist, buried his children, aged one, three and four years – as well as a 10-month-old toddler – under the cover of darkness after they allegedly succumbed to measles-related complications last month.
Maveto has, however, refuted the allegations saying he is prepared to let anyone exhume the bodies to see for themselves that there were no mass graves at his homestead.
Meanwhile, Mhere told <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/water-salt-cooking-oil-and-in-other-cases-just-a-bit-of-coca-cola-a-familys-master-prescription-for-illnesses/">H-Metro</a> that she has never been to a hospital and depends on prayers and help from prophets. She said:
<blockquote>
It is not allowed for one to seek medical attention. You just pray for whatever illness you’re facing or consult the prophet for help.
We only use holy water, cooking oil and salt, depending on the prophet’s instructions.
When a child is born, we perform a ritual to protect the baby from measles.
For other ailments, like a running stomach, we use fresh milk and Coca-Cola, to cleanse the body.
</blockquote>
Alice Chiyambiro, Mhere’s sister, said they also use a mixture of lemons, cooking oil and warm water for healing infants with fontanelle problems (nhova).

Apostolic Sect Member Says It's An Offence To Receive Medical Treatment

A member of the Johanne Marange Apostolic Sect in Bikita, Masvingo, says rumours he secretly buried nine of his children in mass graves are false and probably the work of his enemies.
The reports claimed Clever Maveto (67), a polygamist, buried his children, aged one, three and four years – as well as a 10-month-old toddler – under the cover of darkness after they allegedly succumbed to measles-related complications last month.
He had reportedly refused to take the children to the hospital for treatment.
<a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/kids-mass-graves-father-clears-the-air-over-raging-controversy-ready-to-exhume-bodies-to-shame-critics/">H-Metro</a> reported sources as saying Maveto buried the bodies in sets of threes.
But Maveto, who has 15 children with three wives, claimed he had only lost one son and three grandchildren. He said:
<blockquote>
I am prepared to let anyone exhume the bodies to check whether there is any mass grave here.
Only two of the children died of measles-related complications and the others died of natural causes.
The only problem was that when we buried the first two, we woke up as early as 5 AM to dig the graves and buried them that morning.
</blockquote>
Police officers and officials from the Ministry of Health and Child Care, as well as Social Welfare representatives, visited the Maveto homestead following rumours of the existence of mass graves.
Maveto said the officials only found “the four graves and not the mass graves people are talking about”.
His children ran away, when they saw nurses, fearing they would be vaccinated against measles, despite showing signs of the disease. Added Maveto:
<blockquote>
All my children don’t go to any clinic. We have our own doctors at church and they are responsible for dealing with any illness.
</blockquote>
His senior wife, Dorcas Mhere, said they can easily treat measles and will not go against their beliefs.
Meanwhile, Sabhuku (village head) Gede said he had also heard the rumours of a mass grave at Maveto’s homestead, but the rumours have not been confirmed. He said:
<blockquote>
Our only issue with Maveto, and many members of the Johanne Marange sect, is their attitude towards health matters.
We have a measles outbreak and all his children contracted the disease because they are not vaccinated and neither have they been taken to the clinic or hospital for treatment.
Now, that schools have opened, his children are back at school and exposing other children to measles.
