A Morogoro resident, Mr Nyangusi Laiser, became an internet sensation when a video of him praying over his car not to be swept away by floods went viral on Tuesday.
In a Facebook post that accompanied the video, he explained that it was his little faith that saved his car.

They got off when the rain started, and suddenly, it poured heavily.

The video that he posted and then circulated on various WhatsApp groups showed a black Toyota Surf in the middle of the floods already over the tires size going up with praying aloud.
He has told The Citizen that he believed God could save his car and recalled a verse in the Bible, Jeremiah 33:3 that says ‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know’.
The video received 416 comments and 270 re-shares. In most comments people expressed their disbelief over what happened and agreeing on the power of the name Jesus he was calling.
