The Rwanda Governance Board (RGB), the government body charged with overseeing faith-based organisation, issued the warning last week on Tuesday following accusations of self-proclaimed prophets and pastors misleading people into surrendering their property and money in the hope of getting more.
RGB said it has discovered that some religious leaders have been leading people into believing that if they give more, they will get more, while others have led believers into lengthy fasting sessions, leading to death in some cases.
