RELIGIONPalm Sunday: The day Ugandans Hired A White Man To Play Jesus For Them – Religion

In 2018, a heated debate sparked online after a White man was allegedly hired to play the role of Jesus Christ for Palm Sunday celebration at Munyonyo Martyrs Shrine in Kampala, Uganda.

Palm Sunday is the start of the Holy Week and the day Christians celebrate the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem, one week before He was crucified.
