Drama unfolded online after a man identified as Omosh sent a direct message to the elderly prophet from Nyanza who had earlier claimed that Raila Odinga would resurrect today. In a viral video shared on social media, Omosh expressed disbelief that the self-proclaimed man of God had yet to perform the “miracle” he had promised.
“We mzee ulisema Raila anafufuka, tunakungoja bado ufanya maajabu yako. Bado tunakuamini. Hatumziki mpaka afufuke, na asipofufuka uhame Nyanza,” Omosh said sarcastically, sparking laughter and heated reactions online.
His remarks came just hours after the much-anticipated “resurrection day” predicted by the prophet, identified by locals as Prophet Masinde or “Nabii wa Western,” failed to materialize. The prophecy, which had attracted both curiosity and ridicule across the country, claimed that Raila Odinga would rise before his burial — a statement that many Kenyans dismissed as blasphemous and misleading.
Omosh’s message captured the frustration and mockery of many Kenyans who had been following the sensational claim. Social media users flooded the comments section with jokes and memes, with some saying the prophet should now “face the consequences of false prophecy.”
The incident has reignited conversations about the growing number of self-proclaimed prophets who make outrageous claims for attention. Religious leaders have since urged Kenyans to be cautious and to focus on faith grounded in truth and humility rather than sensationalism.
As Raila Odinga’s family and supporters continue to mourn him with dignity, Kenyans online are using humor and satire to expose the extremes of false prophecy — turning a once-controversial claim into a nationwide moment of reflection and laughter.
