Scruffy Italian Tourist Mistaken For 'Jesus' In Kenya (Photos)

There was excitement in Nairobi, Kenya, when a scruffy Italian Tourist looking like 'Jesus' was spotted walking barefoot on the streets.


The man was dressed in a long rob, had long-hair, thick-beard, and was on barefoot. These features drew people’s attention as his appearance resembled that of the Western image of Jesus Christ that has been etched in popular culture.

Kenyans on Twitter used the hashtag #JesusInNairobi to share their excitement, with many posting selfies they took with the unidentified man.
