Celebrity “prophet” Pastor Mboro will on Wednesday pray for the family of the five-year-old Soweto child‚ who residents say fell victim to a ritual killing.

Tinyiko Mongwe‚ from Orlando East‚ was stabbed to death. The perpetrator then drank the child’s blood as part of a satanic ritual‚ according to residents.

Mboro‚ whose real name is Paseka Motsoeneng‚ issued a media statement to announce that he would be joined by musicians Sipho “Brickz” Ndlovu‚ Bonginkosi “Zola” Dlamini and Winnie Khumalo. The controversial prophet is known for his flamboyant lifestyle and socialising with celebrities.

He has been in the headlines for his involvement in a number of memorial services and funerals‚ including that of Lundi Tyamara and Joe Mafela.

Last month he courted controversy for praying for fired Hawks boss Berning Ntlemeza.
