DR WALTER MASOCHA HAS TAKEN LEAVE FROM POSITION AS ARCHBISHOP WHILST ON BAIL

Dear readers

A lot has been going on in the background. Today I was in Scotland at Falkirk and Stirling  for reasons I cannot disclose on the blog. However I managed to pick up the local paper at Stirling and it was no surprise to me that former Archbishop Dr Masocha was making the headlines on the front page in Stirling for all the wrong reasons.

Agape Head Office in Stirling were the former Archbishop conducted his "surgeries"

An Archbishop of a church based in Stirling appeared in court this week charged with two sexual assaults.

Walter Masocha (49) leader of Agape For All Nations Ministries International Church which has its head office in the city's Melville Terrace, appeared in private and on petition at Stirling Sheriff Court on Monday. 

Masocha, of Cosyneuk House, Sauchieburn, is accused of two charges of sexual assalt- one on a child and one on an adult. Both are alleged to have taken place at his home. 

Appearing from custody before Sheriff Wyllie Robertson on Monday afternoon, Masocha made no plea or declaration and the case was continued for further examination. He was released on bail and will return again to court in relation to the charges on a date yet to be determined. 

Up to 40 members and former members of the church attended at the court building this week and a number packed into the courtroom itself prior to his appearance. 

With the case being heard in private, as is normal court procedure in relation to petition cases, they were unable to sit in on Masocha's appearance, however, and had to make their way out of the courtroom into the corridor. There, some began to pray, one on her knees- before the group's sheer numbers led them being advised to clear what is a non waiting area of the court and to wait outside. 

The church website says that the Archbishop Masocha was both "leader and founder" of the church, which was described as "a fast growing Church established in August 2007". It is also stated that Masocha "is a renowned preacher and teacher of the word of God, a powerful evangelist and prophet of God with a clear calling of an Apostle of Jesus Christ". 

The church itself is also said to have a number of "satellites" in Africa as well as others in Europe and North America. 

An Observer reporter called at the Church's unassuming head office in Stirling's Melville Terrace yesterday (Tuesday) where the only indication that it was based there was a handwritten intercom nameplate showing the word, "Agape". 

While there was no one available for comment at that time, a spokesperson for the Church later called the Observer office to provide a statement in relation to the matter.

It said, " The National Executive Board has accepted the offer from the Archbishop to take leave of absence from his role to protect the name of the ministry and also to concentrate on legal proceedings"


Dear readers, it has also been reported to me that my former friend  Felistas Mudzingwa has been making the comments on this blog lately because she is reported to have been bought a new Mercedes by Dr Masocha to cover up the Liverpool Youth Sex Scandal. Staff Nurse Felistas Mudzingwa and her husband former Nurse Roy Kudzai Mapfumo of Southport are Youth Advisors in Agape and are responsible for giving biblical sound advice to the youth in Agape and making sure they don't engage is illicit sex during conferences. Felistas's husband Roy Kudzai Mapfuma is no stranger to controversy, whilst members of Agape Church Roy was sentenced to 9 months in prison in 2009 after being convicted at Liverpool Crown Court following an investigation by NHS counter fraud.

A picture of me this afternoon 5 February 2014 in Scotland at Falkirk Police station, were Dr Masocha spent 4 days and 4  nights in custody last week. It was a very emotional experience for me today.
