A 25-YEAR-OLD self-styled apostle and keyboardist from Kitwe in Zambia allegedly impregnated six women – including a married one – from a church praise choir he directs.
The development came to light after church members gathered the courage to report the matter to the church’s senior pastor.
They accused apostle Sesa of being a pervert.
His behaviour, the congregants said, was at variance with church morals.
However, apostle Sesa is counter-arguing that the women were willing participants.
“They wanted it, too,” he told the senior pastor and other congregants.
He added that they often sit on the keyboard to seduce him.
The senior pastor has since suspended the keyboardist, while the women he impregnated have taken the matter to court. — Wires

Armed robber steals T-shirt
A gun-toting man – who forced his way into a house in Bulawayo’s Makokoba suburb, while pointing a pistol at a teenage girl before hiding behind a wardrobe – has been arrested for robbing the family of a T-shirt worth US$5.
Dingani Mpofu (44) recently appeared before Bulawayo regional magistrate Mr Dambudzo Malunga charged with robbery.
He pleaded not guilty and was remanded in custody.
Representing the State, Costance Matha told the court that, when he forced himself into the house, Mpofu claimed he was being chased by people who wanted to kill him.
At the gate, he reportedly shouted: “I will shoot you, open the gate. They want to kill me.”
The girl, however, did not open the gate for him, forcing the accused to jump over it.
Although the girl reportedly tried to lock herself inside the house, Mpofu managed to muscle himself in.
When he got inside, he headed to the bedroom, where he hid behind the wardrobe.
He spent several hours hiding.
After the noise outside had subsided, he pointed the pistol at the house owner and demanded a T-shirt.
The accused eventually made good his escape. He left his jacket behind.
The incident was reported to the police, leading to Mpofu’s arrest — B-Metro

Woman marries self, wants divorce within a day
A woman who claimed to have married herself is now considering getting divorced barely 24 hours after the alleged nuptials.
Sofi Maure (25) announced on social media in February that she had “married herself”, as she posed for photos while wearing a white wedding dress and a gold tiara. The social media influencer — who has 500 000 followers across Instagram and Twitter — posted the photos alongside a caption that claimed she had married herself.
She even claimed she had also baked her own wedding cake for the special occasion.
Her initial post sparked debate among her followers, many of whom commented in Maure’s native Spanish language.
While some were supportive of the woman for showing the importance of self-love, others said she was only posting about her “marriage” for “attention”.
One person said: “It could easily be me, congratulations on the beautiful marriage.”
Another wrote: “It is the best marriage, believe me, with another person it would last less and it would be more conflictive. Congratulations.”
But a third disagreed, stating: “Everything for a tweet and attention.”
Despite most commenters being supportive of Maure’s alleged marriage decision, it seemed the love she had for herself was not meant to last. Just one day later, on February 20, she returned to social media to declare that divorce was imminent.
She said: “Update: one day I am married to myself and I cannot take it anymore, I am seeing how the divorce issue is just in case.”
And in her second post, her followers were quick to make light-hearted jokes about the situation, as they told her to “get a good lawyer” for the divorce hearing.
One said: “There is an express divorce in the first three months of marriage, so do not worry.”
Someone else commented: “Get a good lawyer.” — Wires
