Harare – 27 March 2025
By Dorrothy Moyo | Zimbabwean preacher and controversial diplomat Uebert Angel has cancelled his much-hyped “Prophetic Service” just hours after rescheduling it, sparking speculation that he may be reacting to mounting pressure following a blistering address by war veteran and political whistleblower Blessed Geza, widely known as Cde Bombshell.
Angel, previously implicated in the Al Jazeera Gold Mafia investigation and who has claimed he fears for his life if he returns to the UK, appeared to have made a sudden U-turn on his Harare engagement. Earlier in the day, Angel had taken to X (formerly Twitter) to update followers that the service—originally slated for Thursday—would instead be held on Friday, 28 March at the Harare Hippodrome.
However, hours later, the very same event poster resurfaced online with a large red banner stamped “CANCELLED.” Social media influencer @LynneStactia posted the update with the caption: “Ichi Chigananda chatiza nechimwe chacho chiye Branson! He is now Ambassador At Large 4 sho!!” – suggesting Angel, alongside fellow preacher Ed Branson, is evading scrutiny under the cover of diplomatic immunity.
The cancellation comes in the immediate aftermath of a thunderous national address by Blessed Geza, a war veteran and ex-intelligence insider, who named Angel among a long list of political and economic “criminals” aligned with President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s regime. Geza’s statement, which has since gone viral, accuses Angel of being part of an elite group looting national resources and exploiting religious influence for personal gain.
Geza’s mention of Angel was scathing: “There is Uebert Angel. You know his cases he was involved in GoldMafia.” The direct reference appears to have rattled the charismatic preacher, whose public image and diplomatic standing have come under fire in recent months.
Analysts say the cancellation indicates growing panic within ZANU PF-aligned networks as calls for mass action on 31 March—Geza’s declared day of resistance—gain traction across the country.
As of now, Uebert Angel has not released a formal statement explaining the cancellation, nor has the Ministry of Foreign Affairs commented on his diplomatic role or the implications of Geza’s accusations.
The streets may still be quiet, but Zimbabwe’s digital sphere is buzzing—and it seems the prophetic silence may speak louder than words.
