In a stunning and chilling revelation that reads like the plot of a political thriller, a sworn court statement has unearthed an explosive link between occult dealings, political betrayal, and the untimely death of Malawi’s former Vice President, Dr. Saulos Chilima.
The account, submitted to the Lilongwe Chief Resident Magistrate’s Court by businesswoman Angella Mwale, alleges, as reported by Malawi Focus Magazine, that a Nigerian spiritualist known as “God Papa”—an occult figure reportedly engaged by Chilima for supernatural political ascension—warned the late VP not to travel outside Lilongwe just a day before his fatal crash, citing fury from “angry gods.”
The witness claims the chilling warning followed escalating tensions over unpaid ritual fees, which were allegedly hijacked by former minister Patricia Kaliati, who is now under investigation for conspiring to assassinate President Lazarus Chakwera.
The testimony paints a scandalous picture of political deceit, spiritual manipulation, and ignored warnings from a feared cultist whose threats were treated with disdain. When Chilima’s plane vanished in the Chikangawa Forest on June 10, just hours after the ignored warning, what had been dismissed as “propaganda from cadets” turned into horrifying reality. Now, with payments allegedly stolen, lives lost, and the nation in shock, the haunting question remains: was this tragedy the price of playing god with the gods?
