HLAUDI Motsoeneng was fired as SABC boss . . .
But judging from his performance at a church service held at Pastor Paseka “Mboro” Motsoeneng’s Incredible Happenings Ministry yesterday, he has bigger plans!
Speaking from the pulpit in Katlehong, Ekurhuleni, Hlaudi asked congregants: “Pray for me to become president of Mzansi!”
Dressed in a snazzy suit, he smiled and said no one could bring him down until God said it was over.
“The future is bright for Hlaudi. When I was fired I celebrated because I celebrate everything that happens in my life,” he said.
“I was fired because I changed the lives of the poor. I come from poverty, I am poverty.
“When you pray for me today and every day, pray for me to become president of Mzansi and change the lives of the poor.”
Hlaudi said he was guided by his conscience, even if he sensed he would be dismissed.
“If my conscience feels good I go ahead and follow through, and when I’m charged, I don’t apologise,” Hlaudi told the congregants.
“I knew all along that a storm was coming when I changed the SABC’s local content to 90%.”
Mboro pledged his support for Hlaudi, saying: “The SABC is not God. It’s not the end of Hlaudi but the beginning.”
The famous pastor warned that if Hlaudi went down, a lot of people would go down with him . . .
“Hlaudi has helped a lot of people rise in their careers,” said Mboro.
“If he goes down, many people will suffer too.”
Two weeks ago, Hlaudi was found guilty of misconduct and bringing the SABC into disrepute after holding an unauthorised press conference in April.
