On September 9, 2019, a shocking incident occurred at a church in Kenya, involving two prominent politicians, Ndindi Nyoro and Maina Kamanda.
According to reports, the two politicians engaged in a scuffle inside the church, leaving many in shock and raising questions about the role of politics in religious institutions.
Many have expressed their disappointment and outrage on social media, with some calling for the government to regulate the establishment of churches in Kenya.
One Twitter user, @MugamboWaAfrica, stated, 'I think our churches have been corrupted and blinded by politicians' money; they are no longer preaching the gospel, they have decided to be political sympathizers.'
Another user, @InjeraNick, added, 'The #ShameOnTheChurches is because most churches have become more of marketplaces. The mission of the church does not focus on people's SPIRITUALITY anymore, but GIVING is the order of the day. Preying on the weak is what they are doing.'
Some have also taken to social media to share their reactions to the incident, with one user, @Valerian254, stating, 'Kama hii ndo maombi let me pray my God from home instead of this shameful acts from the so called “Men of God”!!'
