Prophet Shepherd Bushiri of the Enlightened Christian Gathering is one of the most famous and richest pastors in Africa.
The controversial man of God is also currently the richest youngest man in Malawi and he loves to spend his money in the most extravagant ways possible including buying multiple private jets, living in expensive mansions, and gifting his daughter with extravagant gifts, that some even term as impractical.
But besides being a wealthy young man with an appetite for the finer things in life and a way of attracting controversies, Prophet Bushiri is a family man who goes over and beyond to make his family happy.
Today we discuss everything that you need to know about Bushiri’s daughter
Who is Bushiri’s daughter?
Shepherd Bushiri’s daughter is called Raphaella Bushiri. She is a six-year-old little girl who appears to be quite athletic and loves gymnastics. Check out the video shared below by her father.
Little is known about where Raphaella studies, or when her birthday is, but we believe that the young Bushiri has the best of everything that money can buy.
What happened to Bushiri’s other daughter?
Bushiri and his wife had another daughter called Israella Bushiri, who passed on in 2021 while receiving treatment at a hospital in Nairobi, Kenya.
The young Israella was battling a lung infection and required a bone marrow donation. Unfortunately, after weeks of being in the ICU, she didn’t make it.
At the time of her death, Bushiri’s oldest daughter was only eight years old. Her death broke her parents' hearts and to date, they still keep her memories alive by sharing heartwarming posts and photos of her.
Bushiri’s daughter's car gifts
In 2017, Shepherd Bushiri broke the internet when he bought his late daughter Israella, one of the most extravagant birthday gifts.
For Israella’s sixth birthday, Bushiri bought her a K3000,000 Maserati Levante. People were shocked by the extravagance of the gift, given that the owner was years away from being legally allowed to drive it.
Bushiri who had also gifted some of his employees with cars a few months before that obviously didn’t care about what the world thought, and said that the happiness of his family was what defined his success.
