A man claiming to be Jesus, the Son of God, is currently touring South Africa, according to photos and videos shared by locals across social media.
One user recounted that a Kenyan pastor found “Jesus” walking on the streets of Kenya and invited him to a church.
A Kenyan pastor claims he has found Jesus Christ walking on the streets of Kenya. Took the whiteman to his church, gave him a warm welcome and now his church followers are happy that Jesus has finally come back!

And lucky for them he landed in Kenya first. 🤦🏾♂️🧐🤫 pic.twitter.com/2iUJqIha1Q
Photos of the long-haired, bearded, white man speaking to an audience from a stage surfaced. He was wearing a white robe with a blue mantle, in line with the traditional depiction of Jesus in Western culture.
Videos have also surfaced of him dancing in the Kenyan town of Kitengel...
My favourite scammer this month is this fella that convinced some people he's Jesus.

There is also speculation that he was seen in South Africa. “A pastor from South Africa invited Jesus from heaven to preach in his church today. Local man [sic] have seen enough,” a user wrote on Sunday.
