‘Bungoma Jesus’: I see heaven everyday  


The self-proclaimed ‘Jesus’ from Tongaren in Bungoma County has now claimed that he sees heaven daily.

Kila saa tatu asubuhi nikichukua kamkeka kangu nikijilaza kwa kivuli, mbingu inafunguka saa tatu mpaka saa sita za mchana, (Everyday while I’m enjoying the morning breeze on my mat under the shade, heaven opens up between nine and noon),” Mr Simiyu said in a video.

He claims that during that three-hour period, prophets pass by to greet him while acknowledging him as a son of God.

…Naona mbingu ikifunguka, naona manabii wengi wa mbinguni wakishuka, wakija wakinisalimu. Salamu zako mwana wa Baba Mungu. Nami nasema Amina. Huyu akipita, mwingine anaingia anasema; salamu zako mwana wa Mungu, nasema Amina (I see heavens opening up, I see many prophets coming down from heaven and greeting me; How are you God’s son? I reply Amen. They pass by one after the other, as they greet me and I answer Amen),” he revealed.
