Mlaka speaks out on his wife’s scandal in Eswatini

Former Enlighten Christian Gathering (ECG) Church Pastor Macdonald Mlaka Maliro has come out of his cocoon to trash hovering on social media that his wife was caught in some scandal in Eswatini, saying the rumours are untrue.

Since Mkaka resigned from ECG Church a month ago, many people have been speculating that Mlaka’s wife was having an affair with a church member in Eswatini.

The speculation further said that the woman of the said church member caught the two and threatened to kill Mlaka’s wife Benadetta.

The development forced Mlaka’s wife to flee Eswatini.

But speaking in an exclusive interview with one of the local daily papers, Mlaka described the rumours as false.

“There was an issue going around suggesting my wife was caught in some scandal in Eswatini. That has never happened. This was just a creation of some other people. I don’t know who pays them, but it is just a lie. We are living in a world of technology and apart from being pastors we are well-known people. If that issue happened it would have been all over.

“We are in an age where people can take pictures, videos and share. My wife has been in Malawi for over four months before I joined her here. So why is this issue coming out now because I have resigned?” queried Vinyo Watha star.

He added: “These are just lies and I am not shaken about them. I personally know my wife better than anyone else. I have been with her for 22 years. My wife cannot do something stupid and then I resign and join the same person who did that. I am not that nice. Because of our status we know the battles which we can face. People should learn to concentrate on their own issues than advising me what to do or how to run my family issues.”
