Controversy has surrounded Pastor James Ng'ang'a, a self-proclaimed 'commander,' after a recent sermon sparked outrage among his male followers.
On August 28, 2019, Ng'ang'a took to the pulpit, warning his male congregants that if they crossed him, he would use his alleged powers to render their genitals inactive.
The pastor's comments quickly went viral, with many expressing shock and disgust at his words.
When reached out for comment, Ng'ang'a claimed that the offending clip was taken out of context from a sermon about men, and that he was being unfairly maligned by jealous rivals seeking to tarnish his reputation.
Ng'ang'a, who has been a prominent figure in Kenyan Christianity, insisted that he was not seeking cheap publicity and that his followers appreciated his unique style of preaching.
However, the backlash against Ng'ang'a has been intense, with many calling for him to be held accountable for his words.
