Eliud Wekesa, the self-proclaimed 'Yesu Wa Tongaren,' has now spurned a group of individuals calling for his crucifixion on Good Friday, claiming that his time has not yet arrived.

Speaking in his hometown of Kakamega on Friday, Wekesa opposed calls to crucify him like Jesus in the Bible, stating that the Easter holiday, according to his beliefs, is still scheduled for July, not April.

He clarified that the current period commemorated worldwide by Christians as a memorial of Jesus' death and resurrection did not occur in the same Gregorian timeline as the Jewish calendar.

“Mimi Pasaka yangu huwa inafanyika mwezi wa saba na inavyofanyika huwa tunasoma maandiko kutoka kitabu cha Kutoka 12: 21-28. Hiyo ndiyo Pasaka ya Mwalimu Yesu” he said.

“Maandiko inasema tujihadhari tusije tukaiga mitindo ya hawa watu wa mataifa ya kigeni. Nimewaonya wafuasi wangu kulingana na hii Pasaka (The Word says we should be cautious to avoid copying Western cultures; I have cautioned my followers regarding this Easter." he added

Wekesa made the remarks when several individuals came to his home with a wooden cross and nails, preparing to crucify him. He claimed he was forced to utilize Bible teachings to chastise and condemn them for what he called blasphemy.

“Sisi hii Pasaka huwa hatuitendi, haikubaliki katika haya mlango ya Jerusalemu maana watu wanataka waandamane, wawe katika hali ya kubeba miti katika hali ya kumsulubisha Yesu,” he stated.

he added “Ata niliona mtu mmoja wa Kiislamu amebeba misumari akakuja nayo hapa; ikabidi nimwambie, ndugu mtu hafanyiwi dhiaka, chochote utapanda ndicho utavuna.”

At the same time, while referencing Biblical teachings on Noah and the floods, Wekesa warned anyone who questioned his legitimacy, comparing them to those in the Bible who ridiculed Noah before being devastated by floods.

“Wale wanasema ati ninavuta bangi, mimi ni mlevi…ata Noah alipotangaza hukumu watu walicheka lakini wakati wa mwisho watu wakaangamia, nami pia nimefanyika kwa mapenzi ya Mungu, kwa ajili ya wema wake Mwenyezi Mungu,” he warned.



“Ninapotangaza hii ujumbe watu wanasema mimi ni mwendawazimu; ati nimevuta bangi.”
