Times Of Swaziland: ‘I SAW LATE PM SHAKING HANDS WITH MULTITUDES’ ‘I SAW LATE PM SHAKING HANDS WITH MULTITUDES’ ================================================================================ Sibusiso Shange on 25/01/2021 08:27:00 MBABANE – Facebook posts by Phetsile Masilela concerning COVID-19-related deaths in the country have got the public talking, with some questioning whether she had a premonition about the unfolding events. Masilela of Edlozini under Maphalaleni Constituency shared her posts on her Facebook account on two occasions, in June and December last year. The born again Christian posted that she heard a clear message from God in June last year. She posted that she saw fire falling from heaven. According to the post, the fire destroyed everything on earth. “To me, it was clear that we are living in the wrath of God,” reads the post. In her second post, Masilela mentioned that on December 28, 2020, she had a dream where she saw a large gathering with the late Prime Minister Ambrose Mandvulo Dlamini. Worth noting was that December 28, 2020, was the second day after the burial of the late premier. She stated that the majority of people in the crowd were both female and male prominent people, including artists of the country and were clad in suits. Ministers “I saw the PM shaking hands with a group of high profile people including cabinet ministers and celebrities. As he was shaking hands with the people, he would say you are welcome with his calm voice and smiling face. I cried that this should not happen because I knew the interpretation of the dream. To me, it meant we will lose many of the people who appeared in the group as a country,” reads the post. Most people who saw the post asked why Masilela’s premonitions were not taken seriously as what she posted appeared to be happening. Worth noting was that many prominent people have succumbed to COVID-19-related illnesses after the death of the premier. They include President of the Conference of Churches Bishop Stephen Masilela, Minister of Public Service Christian Ntshangase, Senator Jimmy Hlophe, King’s Office’s Boy Mdluli, Anglican Bishop Ellinah Wamukoya, Minister of Labour and Social Security Makhosi Vilakati, EBC’s Winnie Magagula, among others. Worth noting was that the deceased died within a short space of time after the death of the PM. The recent death brought the total number of people who died from the virus to 458 while there are 4 659 active cases. The positive news is that 9 102 people have recovered. When called yesterday, Masilela confirmed the posts. She stated that she took the dream seriously so much that she posted it on her Facebook page, where she usually interacted with people. Apart from the post, she stated that she wrote a formal letter to the Acting Prime Minister, Themba Masuku, where she explained her dream in detail.
