Gumbura was a practitioner of polygamy, and claimed to be a follower of the teachings of American charismatic preacher William Branham, sometimes called Branhamism or The Message. ZimKnowledge (talk) 19:15, 11 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

There are three sources that say William Branham was originator of The End Time Message (which was the name of his church), and one article includes a artwork of Branham and Gumbura and Jesus Christ together. Gumbura seems to have clearly connected himself to Branham. Do you have a source that says he was not a follower? If it disputed we could include that in the article and note it is a disputed fact.
Here are two of the quotes from the sources:
"In the main lounge [of his house] is an impressionist painting of Jesus Christ which has, however, been done to include Gumbura and End Time Message founder William Branham."
"They also hold that their church founder William Marrion Branham is the Last Prophet of the New Testament."
Also, polygamy is practiced by other followers of Branham according to multiple other sources: [1] [2] [3] [4]
