Cult members who believed was going to end, have been deported from Ethiopia. Church Christ Disciples followers travelled to Ethiopia from Uganda. The followers of Church Christ Disciples from Soroti travelled to Ethiopia in February after their pastor claimed they would find Jesus there after 40 days of fasting, said a spokesperson for Uganda's internal affairs ministry. "A joint security and intelligence team has put the religious cult leader, Pastor Simon Opolot, who is a Ugandan, on the wanted list and he will be apprehended." Authorities in Uganda were alerted to the plan by concerned residents in Soroti after the cult followers began leaving for Ethiopia.
