KwaZulu Natal self-styled Messiah Alfred Ndlovu has died from malnutrition after going without food for 30 days when he tried to emulate Jezus Chr1st and fast for 40 days and 40 nights.

Alfred Ndlovua, 43, left home on 15 June and headed into the bush to conduct prayers, redirecting his attention to G0d, away from things of the earth.

He was known by his family and community at large as a very spiritual person whose faith could move mountains and his death has puzzled those close to him.

One close relative said: He was a very spiritual man. Its unfortunate he had to die this way.

After a month we got the sad news of his death. He was a healthy and religious old man who did not even look his age.”

He was alone in the wilderness and his body was found by a stranger who then alerted the police.

According to the police, Mr Alfred Ndlovu is not the first to die from fasting, as numerous other cases have been reported.

A police spokesman said that they are powerless, however, to prevent members of the public from fasting.

May his soul rest in Peace
