Mrs. Entrance Nyanyete also known as Mai Maria believes jesus died and reincarnated in her daughter
According to a report by MyZimbabwe, one of the leaders of a
christian sect has shared the touching story of how Jesus died and
reincarnated in her daughter. The Mudzimu Unoyera Sect in Mashonaland
Central’s Guruve District believes Jesus lives among them.
The story shared is revealed thus:
The sect is headquartered in Chatiza Village, 22km south of Guruve
Business Centre, and The Sunday Mail visited them on Good Friday. But
Jesus was not available. But her mother Mai Maria (Mother Mary) was
around. Her real name is Mrs Entrance Nyanyete.
“I had forgotten that it is Easter. You have actually reminded me of my child’s death,” she said, sobbing. “This is actually one of the most painful times of my life as it reminds me of the time white people overseas killed my child.”
Her husband, known as “Baba Josefa” (Father Joseph), interjected: “You
came here to ask about our Easter celebrations. See how painful it is
to her? It is painful to celebrate because this is the day Jesus was
killed.”
The gathering once again sang as one follower, Mary, wiped “Mai Maria’s” tears and sprinkled deodorant on her clothes.
“Mai Maria” said Jesus died 2000 years ago and was
reincarnated as Emmanuel Dzanagare Mudyiwa in 1939. Mudyiwa died in 1989
and the spirit found abode in her then six-year-old daughter, Tepsy
Nyanyete, in 1998.
The sect believes Tepsy is Jesus, and refer to her as Jepsy
Nyanyete, Jekia Mambo, Tenzi or Ishe Jesu. Zimbabweans have come to know
her as “Girl Jesus”. She is no girl now. She is 24-years-old. The
arrest of “Mai Maria” and “Baba Josefa” years back for
assaulting police officers who were rescuing 160 children at the shrine
has not tempered the enthusiasm of followers.
Mrs Nyanyete said: “For us, every Friday is Easter and we
remember how they killed my child many years back. We celebrate it in
our own way, with our own rituals, which include crying, singing and
dancing.
“We are, however, grateful that Jesus came back, and this time,
she will not die. She is not going away anymore. She is set to live
forever and rule the earth.”
“Mai Maria” took us to “Jesus”, bedroom where a
cot, diapers, baby clothes and blankets were neatly arranged. Pretty
strange for a 24-year-old. She explained her daughter’s passion for
dolls and “introduced” us to one named Dillard.
