Controversies

In 2011, the pastor was accused of sexual assault after inserting his hands into two of his congregant's vaginas, supposedly to expel demons. [2]

After Motsoeneng had apparently restored a couple's libido, the couple had sexual intercourse in front of the pastor and a TV crew. Their act was not shown on television, and Mboro organised a mass protest to be staged outside the TV studios to force them to flight the episode. [3]

In 2021, ABSA bank threatened to auction his house due to non-payment of loans. Motsoeneng claimed that ABSA Bank had been fraudulently stealing money from his account amounting to over R3 million. Motsoeneng had recently purchased a BMW i8, said to be valued at R1,2 million. [4]

Motsoeneng was arrested in August 2024 Paseka and charged with kidnapping and possession of dangerous weapons after, along with an armed entourage, forcibly entered a school and attempted to take his son's children away from their maternal grandmother. [5]

Motsoeneng was released on bail of R3000, while his bodyguard was freed only on a warning. [6]
