Mnangagwa Extols Uebert Angel as Divine Orator at New Year’s Gathering

President Emmerson Mnangagwa has hailed Uebert Mudzanire, known as Uebert Angel, as “God’s mouthpiece” at the Exodus Night event in Harare to usher in 2025.

The event at the Hippodrome became a platform for Mnangagwa to praise Angel’s spiritual influence, broadcast live to an eager audience.

Mnangagwa extolled Angel’s ability to draw religious tourists, emphasizing the divine favor bestowed upon Zimbabwe through Angel’s ministry.

He articulated, “Your participation in the crossover ceremony with Prophet Uebert Angel reflects divine favor upon Zimbabwe, granted by God himself.”

Mnangagwa further stated, “A country honored to host a prophet of such remarkable stature and spiritual caliber has attracted visitors from across continents seeking wisdom.”

He continued, “This signifies divine visitation upon our land, illustrating God’s eternal hand on Zimbabwe.”

The President leveraged this moment to promote Zimbabwe as a destination for spiritual and cultural exploration, highlighting attractions like Victoria Falls and Mana Pools.

Despite this praise, Angel’s controversial past cannot be overlooked, particularly his involvement in a gold-smuggling scandal exposed by Al Jazeera in 2023.

Angel had boasted about using his diplomatic immunity to facilitate illegal financial activities, including money laundering and gold smuggling.

In addition to his political roles, Angel has gained notoriety for promoting “Miracle Money,” where he claims divine interventions can lead to sudden wealth.

Mnangagwa’s endorsement of Angel at such a public event underscores the intertwined relationship between politics and religion in Zimbabwe today.

Angel’s influence extends beyond the spiritual, serving as Mnangagwa’s Ambassador-At-Large to Europe and the Americas, blending diplomacy with divinity.

This connection between state and church raises questions about the integrity of public office when intertwined with religious figures with contentious histories.

The allure of spiritual guidance from figures like Angel continues to pull crowds, suggesting a significant cultural reverence for prophetic voices in Zimbabwe.

The Exodus Night event not only marked a new calendar year but also highlighted the ongoing dance between governance and faith in the nation.

For those intrigued by the fusion of politics and spirituality, or the impact of religious leaders on national identity, this event offers much to ponder.

As Zimbabwe navigates its complex socio-political landscape, the influence of figures like Angel in both the spiritual and political spheres remains a topic of keen interest.
