Founder of Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) Church Prophet Shepherd Bushiri on Wednesday successfully launched Shepherd Bushiri Mining in the republic of Zambia.
The launch of the mining site comes barely weeks after his trip to Malawi which was marred by several obstacles.
The launch also comes barely days after the inauguration of the newly elected President of Zambia Edgar Chagwa Lungu.
Speaking after the launch, Bushiri said the mining site will go a long way in improving the lives of Zambians.
“I am so happy for this multimillion dollar project that will change lives across Africa, Zambia in particular.
“I take this moment to thank the government and the people of Zambia for the vision that has enriched the nation on economic development matters. I feel so honored to be part of such economic development vision,” said Bushiri.
Bushiri also disclosed that this weekend he will be launching his mobile company called PSB Network this weekend in Johannesburg.
The mine is located in the outskirts of Ndola and is a joint venture between Shepherd Bushiri and Malabwe Mines Ltd, with Bushiri as the major shareholder.
Malabwe Mines has been in existence for some time but it was dormant for a long period due to non-availability of necessary funds to sustainably spearhead the mining operations.
