Prophetic Healing and Deliverance Ministries leader Prophet Walter Magaya has embarked on a multi-million dollar venture under Planet Africa, which focuses on mining and construction.
The company has already begun constructing 1 500 upmarket cluster homes in Harare and will partner international investors in mining, construction, water and sewer reticulation, and street lighting, among others.
Prophet Magaya told journalists at a PHD business expo and home project launch in the capital yesterday that, “Planet Africa is there to facilitate investments for whoever wants to partner us. We have financial support from various institutions who are keen on investing in our projects.
“. . . I am able to manage both business and the spiritual so I assign those with business acumen to lead the business side of things while I focus on the church.” Local Government, Public Works and National Housing Principal Director Colonel (Retired) Joseph Mhakayakora yesterday launched construction of 236 cluster homes in Prospect suburb. The project is mainly funded by sponsors of PHD’s television channel, Yadah TV. Rtd Col Mhakayakora promised more land for the initiative as it was in line with Zim-Asset.
“Out of the 300 000 housing target outlined in Zim-Asset, I know that today we have launched a project in which we subtract 236 houses.
“The ministry’s role is to facilitate construction of houses and if you want more land, we can give you and like what (Local Government) Minister (Ignatius) Chombo would say, we charge just a little.”
