Nichiren Shoshu member from Africa missing in Japan

A member from Ghana in western Africa, who participated in the April Tozan at Taiseki-ji, was reported to be missing in Japan. The Japanese embassy in Ghana took this issue seriously. The officials warned that if this happens again, the embassy will stop issuing visas to Taiseki-ji visitors.

As usual, Nichiren Shoshu shifted the blame for the situation to the members. Nichinyo, the new high priest, warned members in Ghana, saying that if a similar disappearance takes place, Ghanaian members will be banned from the pilgrimage to Taiseki-ji.

In the meantime, the member from Ghana is still missing in Japan.
