Home Affairs Minister Aaron Motsoaledi says self-proclaimed prophet Shepherd Bushiri and his wife Mary are in South Africa illegally. Motsoaledi says the couple entered South Africa for the first time in September 2009, and were issued with visitors’ visas. Investigations also show that while Bushiri was in South Africa in 2014, 2015 and 2016, he registered companies with the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission, which is not allowed in terms of the conditions of his visitor’s visa.
