GHANAIAN capital Accra was recently brought to a near standstill after a Jesus lookalike appeared in the streets out of nowhere and was instantly mobbed by adoring fans wanting to touch him.
Complete with blue eyes, brunette hair and wearing a cassock, the Accra Jesus fitted the perfect image as portrayed by Christendom. Apparently he was in Ghana to shoot a film in which he was playing the role of Jesus Christ, hence why he was dressed to play the part.
However, Accra residents who thought it was a miracle, reached out to touch him, probably in the hope that like the biblical Jesus, he would take all their woes away. Ghana and Nigeria are two countries with very passionate Christians followings in Africa and their evangelical movements are growing by the day.
According to biblical teachings, Jesus is supposed to be coming back one day and the Accra residents probably thought this was it. They are likely to be disappointed, however, when they find out this was just a film trick.
