“I serve a God of miracles. The prayers we conduct will turn
Day Zero into a day of rising waters in Cape Town.” Pastor Paseka “Mboro”
Motsoeneng said the road to Cape Town’s redemption begins at his church
tonight. “The meeting with God is critical. Before I start anything as big as
this, I need to have a meeting with the creator, God. I plan to pray hard and I
will make it rain.”
He said his meeting will go on all night and everybody is
welcome. “I will have a face to face meeting with God who will tell me
what to do to save the city,” he said. “It will not be a secret meeting. I’m
inviting all people from all walks of life to come forward and support the
initiative. We seek God’s powers to help the entire nation and specifically the
City of Cape Town.”
On Wednesday, the prayers will continue in Cape
Town. “The prayers are not about making Prophet Mboro popular. We are
inviting all other religious leaders and people across the country to join the
prayers on Wednesday in Cape Town.”
He said the timeline for when the rain will hit the parched
Cape earth can’t be discussed before his meeting with God. “God will
reveal to me when He will bless the people with rain.” Mboro said he
prayed for rain in Ekurhuleni, Vaal and the Free State when the provinces had
the same problems.
DA provincial leader Bonginkosi Madikizela said Cape Town
needs more than prayers. “We welcome all people with any kind of help to
assist with the crisis, but people must realise prayers alone are not the
answer. The way people use water is the most important thing.”
“People’s behaviour must change and they must get used to
the hard times the city is experiencing.”He said each person was allowed to use
50 litres of water per day. “Experts have also warned residents there is no
rain forecast,” he said. The Western Cape is working to at least keep water
running at schools.
