A Chegutu woman was involved in a road accident, which claimed the life of her three-year-old child after a radio show in which she had “exposed” some alleged goblins used by their grandmother.
Mai Sasha was in Studio with Tilder Live Show, ‘Zvinoyera zvinoshamisa zvinotyisa zvinoda kufumurwa’ last Tuesday when she reportedly manifested and given a warning that she was going to suffer.
Sadly, three days after the show, she was involved in a road accident on her way to Chegutu, and her three-year-old child, Sasha died on the spot.
She was allowed out of hospital to mourn her child, who was buried yesterday.
The Dzapasi family from Murewa is under siege from what they claim are “goblin attacks” from a relatives they accused of using black magic, which has terrorised the extended family.
In a bid to cleanse themselves, the family claims they have engaged more than 20 prophets, who claim to help but have failed dismally.
While these claims are at times dismissed as fiction, popular presenter Tete Tilder found herself on the receiving end last Tuesday.
The discussion attracted interest from Star FM listeners and her own Facebook followers and they were now contributing on a provided feedback line.
As Tilder was going through the messages, the phone switched off while battery was at 60 percent.
The phone has not worked since. She has since given up.
“There is something weird which happened when I had a live. So, people started sending messages on my phone and while I was attending to them, my phone just went off from 60 percent.
“From nowhere, yakabva yadzima, ndikati maybe yanga yapera moto.
“It was late, and I placed it on charger overnight.
“I woke up around 2 am, phone zero, ndikati maybe icharging system yafa, ndikatarisa but mamwe maphones were charging.
“Till today, it’s not working and it’s only three months with this phone,” said Tilder.
She was also shocked by Sasha’s death.
“The accident occurred after Mai Sasha appeared on my show and revealed the scary secrets in studio last Tuesday.
“She was told that she would pay the price dor daring to speak and next thing accident which killed her child.
“Sasha wacho aitotamba mustudio when they came for the show.”
The siblings’ mother said the family has troubles and all her female children lost their virginity to goblins.
“Mwanasikana anofanira kuona humhandara hwake, asi vese havana kuona humhandara hwavo.
“I don’t even understand what happens,” she said.
Her daughter concurred with the mysterious encounters.
“Tine makore tichirara tichiita bonde mazuva ese, all the five girls.
“Anenge asina murume panguva idzodzo anoitwa bonde husiku hwese, tatambudzika.”
She feels that their failure to get married and also miss out on job opportunities is due to the curse they have been trying to end.
They strongly believe that goblins exist and are the reason they are suffering.
Mai Dzapasi said all her children need help since they all have problems.
“We need help, haisi nyore kuti vabereka vana vako 7, no one has helped their parents.
“It’s always problem after problem. Hapana rugare, I am the one who is looking after them.
“If there is someone, who can help us with removing the trouble causer.
“We have lost hope. We have consulted some of the big names in the prophetic world, we have done everything but no help,” added the mother.
According to the family, they have been everywhere seeking help.
“I lost my job in November, and we have been moving around to sort out the problems from prophets ndopakabvira kuti ndakangwarisa.
“We are asking for help, tatambudzika. I was warned that i would suffer for taking the issue to radio.”
She said, the source of troubles claims ownership of owls, snakes, goblins.
“We have been warned that April is the month of deaths.
“They want blood and meat,” she added.
Everyone has their own problems, ranging from throat and stomach problems.
“I now have 15 years with the same problem, my hospital cards have the same diseases but there is no cure.
“It started as if I was about to have flue, but with time, I started feeling like there was something moving on my throat.
“Ndaizvinzwa husiku kunyanya chichindimara, before I visited some prophets who gave a prayer.
“Within some days, I wanted to drink some water, and yakatadza kudzika, zvekuti ndakashupika, and handina kuzochinjzwa pahuro, nekuti chakabva chapinda mudumbu.
“The problem continued, until I was scanned but there was nothing.
“If it was cancer, dai yakandiuraya kudhara.
“I have a child who died, we are still shocked how the child died, anga ane three years.
“Akangonoswera kwambuya vake, akadzoka achiti mudumbu, we tried everything.
“We went to the clinic but with no time, akabva afa.
“We buried him, vamwe vaingoti fambai, mwana haana kufa zvakanaka,” said Mai Sasha’s sister. The sisters’ brother said he also have some problems.
“I have something that moves around my body. Everywhere on my body, at times, I can see it, because it will be breathing like a frog.
“It’s not 5 years.”
Mai Tanaka also claimed she lost her job mysteriously.
“I was at work, and I lost my job.
“I grew up with problem of my stomach. I would dream eating and I thought they were acids but the problem persisted.
“Sometimes, I would dream while carrying a baby and sleeping with a man in my dreams.
“I had a divorce where my husband was acting weird. I got married again and my husband just went.
“I was told that i have a goblin that scares away potential suitors.
“We now need real sangomas, not these fake ones.
“I have signed that whatever happens, I will stand for myself, taneta,” she said.
