(CP) – The Pentecostal Assemblies of Zimbabwe Upper Room Ministries, one of the largest churches in Zimbabwe, is now grieving its senior leader, Bishop Berry Dambaza, after he reportedly jumped four stories to his death from a local car park in Harare Monday. He was 59. The church also pushed back against rumors that the pastor was sent over the edge after finding out that his wife, Sithembeni Dambaza, had been unfaithful to him.
“Those rumors are entirely and wholly untrue. They are malicious and extremely regrettable,” PAOZ spokesman Reverend Craig Ndoro told ZimLive on Tuesday. “Yesterday, when this tragic incident happened involving the bishop, his wife was actually at home nursing the bishop’s mother, and we have just received terrible news that she has also died.” The news outlet said the bishop’s wife was so overwhelmed by the loss of her husband and mother-in-law that she was hospitalized briefly as well.
