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. I even saw some prominent South African politicians," the post apparently read.

Speaking exclusively to TshisaLIVE Mboro came out guns blazing against the claims and labelled it another smear campaign against him.

"My heart is bleeding over these rumours that I went to hell and killed the devil. This is insane how can I go to hell and kill Satan? What power do I have to go to hell?," he said.

The religious leader further claimed that his Facebook account was hacked and that he has reported the matter.

"They have a nerve to write lies about me because my name is trending, I perform miracles and celebrities come to my church. Now they want to drag my good name in the mud," he added.

This is not the first time the clergyman found himself at the centre of controversy. Last year a post of Mboro claiming to have visited heaven also went viral. At the time it was reported that Mboro later rubbished the claims, and that he was 'selling heaven pictures' for R5000.

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? If anyone can bring that proof to me, I can sell everything that I have and give it to that person," he added.
