A religious community called ‘Chana’s sect’ organised dances, parade and singing of hymns composed by Ziona himself to mark the day and the celebration was completed with a community feast by over 2,100-strong sect.
Ziona, who heads the ‘Chana’s sect’, has 38 wives, 89 children and a large number of grandchildren. He married his first wife in 1959 at the age of 15 and the last in 2004 when he was 60.
