​‘Outright disrespectful’: Abdul El-Sayed compares himself to Jesus Christ on podcast

​Activist and podcaster Adela Cojab criticises US Senate Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed for making "disrespectful" comparisons of his “radical” policies to the actions of Jesus Christ. ​“For me it is an appropriation of Christianity that is outright disrespectful,” Ms Cojab told News24 host James Morrow. ​“So he’s drawing these false parallels in the name of Jesus, which is a religion he doesn’t even subscribe to.”
