  3. Sons now kill their fathers
    The one in the north may have been high from taking drugs.
    The one in the East was obviously for ritual.
    The Cele prophet that was killed and burnt by his assistant must have been involved in shady things with his assistant, causing see-finish. If you know what these white garment prophets do ehn! T
    Imagine!
    They started with argument inside church, then started fighting, then resorted to weapons and the assistant stabbed him, then burnt him.
    The cause of the fight must be very painful, something like betrayal. Maybe he slept with his assistant's woman or that one found out that pastor owns one of his kids or pastor cheated him in a money deal.
