The South African based preacher famed for making his congregants eat grass,Pastor Lesego Daniel of Rabboni Centre Ministries is expected in Bulawayo for a two day crusade.
The pastor from Pretoria courted controversy early this year when he told his church congregation to go and eat grass because 'this is what God wants' them to do, after that he went on to stamp on them.
In a telephone interview from Pretoria, an official from Rabboni Centre Ministries, Pastor Matloudi confirmed to Radio Dialogue that Daniel will be in Bulawayo between 5 and 7 March at Amphitheatre.
"He will be in Zimbabwe where he will conduct a crusade for two days and then an all night prayer after," said the pastor
According to a report in African Spotlight Pastor Daniel had his followers eating grass after explaining in a sermon that Jesus had many other disciples other than the 12 listed in the traditional Bible who were doing new things which were considered unconventional at the time as well.
Defending his actions in the media later, he said: "Okay the Bible teaches us one thing. The kingdom of God is not a matter of talk its a matter of power. Paul says the Holy Spirit will confirm everything that I say, you get it? So it's total demonstration of power nothing else but demonstration".
