According to Mr. Eliyu Simiyu, the self-declared Jesus Christ of Bungoma (yesu wa Tongaren) from Kenya, his life is in danger due to rumors that he will be crucified on Easter.
He allegedly submitted the report after some Bungoma people demanded that he be crucified on Easter Day like Christ.
According to Bummyla, the locals gave him the assurance that, if he truly is the messiah, he will rise from the dead on the third day and ascend to heaven like Christ.
He has subsequently reported the incident to the police station after deciding to disregard the threat.
