“What I have realised is that a bishop is not a bishop of a church but of a society, of the people.”

Poet Jessica Mbangeni has cleared the air on confusion about her priesthood ordination, revealing that she is a bishop elect and is set to be ordained in May.

The star had social media buzzing when she wore priesthood regalia at Ntate Richard Maponya's funeral on Tuesday. Many questioned when she had become a priest and who had given her the authority to participate in certain procedures reserved for clergy., confirming her ordination as a priest and her upcoming consecration as a bishop.

“I'm a bishop-elect. On the 24th of May is my consecration ... I am already ordained a priest. So now I am heading to that ," she revealed. Jessica said she expected her consecration ceremony to be “presidential” because of the power she has. She would not reveal what church she was being consecrated in but said she was a leader of the community."I'm a Bishop-elect." - Jessica Mbangeni
