The majority of their community members were very reluctant to Sakara's idea, and tried to prevent such madness from committing.However, the religious managed to convince three men of his congregation to help him with his mission, and was buried with his hands tied in a tomb not very deep so that he could complete the challenge.
The young religious, a fervent follower of traditional medicine, tried to explain his decision to his parishioners and justified himself citing some passages from the Bible.According to the religious, Jesus said to his disciphelves: "Do this in my commemoration", and he interpreted that he referred to the resurrection of the Messiah and that his followers had to help him in this challenge.
However, reality was very different.Sakara's idea was to 'emerge' from his grave, just as Jesus did, but instead and as various local media reports now, his body was found lifeless in the impromptu tomb excavated on the ground, when they unearthed him72 hours later.
The parishioners gathered there tried the impossible to breathe, including some ‘spiritual exercises’ in order to recover the pastor, but did not obtain any result, and that the religious had been dead for several hours.
The news has caused great shock in the African Christian community, which are not explained why the religious would have chosen to make similar madness.
After what happened, local authorities have presented charges against the three men who decided to help the shepherd with his crazy idea.One of them has already been arrested, while the other two are in search and capture.
