Earlier today, Pastor Fanish Ramsey Maloba was arrested at the Busia border after law enforcement discovered a live two-meter-long snake hidden in his bag. The incident unfolded as Maloba attempted to cross into the country, sparking shock among locals in the area.
According to the pastor, the snake mysteriously appeared after he was engaged in a session of casting out demons. He claimed the reptile was intended for church prayers, calling it a “holy snake.” The unusual explanation left many scratching, as the snake’s presence raised more questions than answers.
The incident occurred in Malenya, Matayos, a region known for its peaceful atmosphere—until today. As word spread, residents were left in awe of the strange encounter and the unusual nature of the so-called “holy snake.”
Upon discovery, the snake was seized by police, and Pastor Maloba was taken into custody for further questioning. Authorities have confirmed they are investigating the matter to determine whether the snake’s presence poses any security risks or if it’s simply a strange tale of spiritual practices gone awry.
While some have found humour in the situation, others have raised concerns about the possible misuse of religious practices. As of now, Pastor Maloba remains under investigation.
Locals are now left to wonder if this is simply a case of an overzealous pastor or if there’s more to the story than meets the eye. Either way, it’s a story that is sure to be discussed for weeks to come.
