SANGOMAS and traditional healers don’t often reveal the source of their powers!
But traditional healer Bongani Gumede said he has nothing to fear.
Bongani gets his powers from a river snake he calls mamlambo.

“I meet with mamlambo in a dam,” he said.
“Mamlambo helps me heal people and it gives me strong medication to help people with sickness, businesses and churches.”
Bongani from Corinth in Mzimkhulu, southern KZN, said the river snake is known only to him and only he can use the snake to heal clients.
“No one is allowed to meet it except me,” he said.
“I don’t give people any snakes for good luck.”
He said the snake gives him light when he’s healing people.
“Mamlambo and I visit each other. I go into the deep dam and he comes to me.
“I can feel the snake’s presence every time I’m in a river and the snake always guides me.
“He tells me what to do and I follow his orders.”
The traditional healer and prophet claimed he had his first encounter with the snake in 2011, and since then he’s never been the same.

Bongani told Daily Sun he was taken by the river snake while swimming with friends.
The healer said at his home, there is a small dam that he enters alone to perform rituals.
“No one is allowed to go inside the dam.”
Bongani said he uses his callings as both a traditional healer and prophet to help people.
He’s the founder of Ubizo Global Church in Zion, which has branches in South Africa, Mozambique, Swaziland and Zimbabwe.
Bongani said the rich, the poor and sick people, and even church leaders, are his clients.
