In a recent turn of events, Trymore Muparinga, a preacher, has filed a police report against fellow clergyman Dickson Nhumwa, accusing him of cyberbullying. The accusation stems from a video posted by Nhumwa on social media, in which he alleged that Muparinga misused church offerings to engage in inappropriate activities, including seducing women and purchasing alcohol. Muparinga has categorically denied these claims, asserting that Nhumwa’s actions are motivated by a desire to claim a share of his earnings, particularly those received from Wicknell Chivayo. Muparinga stated, “I have never misused money for personal pleasures or to buy alcohol, as claimed. We once worked together in ministry, and he seemed to believe he was entitled to my earnings. He is simply a bitter man, and this time I have decided to take the matter to the police.”
In response to these allegations, Muparinga has engaged legal counsel to assist with the case, emphasizing that this is not the first instance of public abuse he has faced. Nhumwa, in his video, reflected on their shared ministry journey since 2007 along First Street, eventually moving to Masvingo. He expressed concerns about Muparinga’s behavior, suggesting that it has escalated to a point where intervention from the broader Christian community might be necessary. Nhumwa remarked, “Mukomana (Muparinga), akunyanya kuti pese paaenda kunoparidza apihwa mari dzepa Altar odzishandisa kudhakwa ne kukicha.”
This situation highlights the ongoing challenges within the Christian community regarding accountability and integrity among its leaders. As these events unfold, it serves as a reminder of the biblical call to justice and mercy, as stated in Micah 6:8, urging believers to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. The community watches closely, hoping for a resolution that upholds truth and care for all involved, reflecting the values of peace and neighbor-love emphasized in Ephesians 5:11.
