On August 26, 2019, male congregants at Neno Evangelism Ministries issued a stern warning to controversial televangelist James Ng'ang'a over insults they claim targeted them.
According to a letter through Otieno and Amisi Advocates, the men have demanded that Ng'ang'a withdraws the said threats and insults issued against them within two days or they will sue him for defamation.
The men claim the televangelist threatened to interfere with the 'normal functioning' of their 'male organs' and demand a public apology be published in one of the national daily newspapers.
Ng'ang'a allegedly used derogative terms that equated them to fools and threatened to disable their abilities to engage in sexual intercourse by using undisclosed means and powers in front of a congregation.
The men further warned that should the Bishop fail to comply within the two days and issue an unequivocal apology in one of the daily newspapers of nationwide circulation, they would have no other option other than to commence private criminal prosecution against him under sections 95, 96 and 97 of the Penal Code and/or civil proceedings for general damages for defamation.
They insisted they will still need damages covered for even after the apology has been issued.
