The Catholic church has directed that priests to bar politicians from politicking in their services.
The resolution was made at the conference of bishops. Bishop David Kamau said that the churches should remain true to what they were purposed to do.
“We met recently as Catholic Bishops and passed a resolution that we should not allow politicians to interfere with our congregations or to bring politics in our churches. We would like our politicians to understand that we don’t want to mix issues. Let us leave politics where it belongs and the church where it belongs, Bishop Kamau said.
This comes in the wake of churches facing backlash for entertaining politics during services and receiving alleged proceeds from corruption during fundraisers.
Recently, the management of Anointed Christian Fellowship church in Kiambu, on Sunday, reportedly blocked a section of Jubilee MPs from speaking in their podium.
Reverend Grace Wandithia stated that it was the church’s policy not to let the politicians speak openly to the church.

true -politicians are to hear from the churches who are the Lord’s representatives here on earth. When were they ordained to stand in the altar?

Mathew 21: 1-13
Jesus Christ spoke no uncertain about the MONEY CHANGERS IN THE SYNAGOGUES! THERE ARE MONEY CHANGERS IN AFRICA POSING AS EVANGELICALS! THESE MONEY CHANGERS HAVE SURRENDERED THEIR PULPITS TO POLITICAL ELITES (WHO ARE ACTUALLY THIEVES) IN EXCHANGE FOR BRIBES AND OTHER ITEMS OF VALUE FROM POLITICAL ELITES!

There is nothing as embarassing today as being a Kenyan! I don’t think there is any country with a more mediocre government than ours. Now they are calling in Scotland yard yet we were told the DCI has the files! Remember Mr.Troon? Yesterday Mali government resigned!

There is no difference between a Catholic bishop today and a traffic police officer when it comes to money. Thugs like paster Ng’ang’a are more deadly. Now, back to the bishops. After eating and swallowing Ruto’s money, you have suddenly realised it is poisonous! Shame on you.

THE KENYAN RULING ELITES/CARTELS ARE NOW AT THE MERCY OF THE NATO SPY AGENCIES ( SCOTLAND YARD, CIA, MOSSAD, MI6/SIS AND BND)!
WHY? BECAUSE GREED BY THE RULING ELITES WHOM THE RULE OF KENYA WAS HANDED ON 12/12/1963 MENTALLY PARALYZED THESE ELITES TO THE POINT THAT THEY HAVE FORGOTTEN THAT THEY ARE POWERLESS IN AN ENVIRONMENT WITH TONS OF NATURAL RESOURCES WHICH THE THE COLONIAL MASTERS NEVER WANTED TO RELINQUISH!
They HAVE mistakenly given blind trust to these colonialists hoping they (colonialists) would help then get on their feet and be the masters of the resources in their new territories!
Instead, the colonialists have turned the tables on them by pushing their divide-and-rule control button called TRIBALISM and corruption associated with human greed!
While Kenyan tribes have been busy fighting one another, the united and conniving former colonialists have been relentless on using their preferred paid tribal elites who have been armed to the teeth to keep law and order while looting is carried out!
The tribal hatred in Kenya has done the most damage to the country, resulting in massive foreign debts! The Kenyan public wealth is mostly benefiting the cartels and the foreign powers who have been prompting them up and effectively using them against their citizens!!
I WONDER WHICH FOREIGN POWER IS PROMPTING THE AMBITION OF WILLIAM RUTO TO BE THE KENYAN COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF??
DP RUTO IS NOT WORKING TO BENEFIT KENYAN CITIZENS DESPITE THE FACT THAT HIS STAUNCH SUPPORTERS SEEM TO THINK HE IS FOR THEM!!
HIS AMBITION COULD ONLY BENEFIT KENYA IF HE WERE PATRIOTIC! PATRIOTISM NORMALLY SEEK TO UNITE THE COUNTRY FOR THE BENEFIT OF ITS PEOPLE! WILLIAM RUTO IS NOT A CATALYST FOR UNITY AND HE DOES NOT WANT TO REVEAL WHY KENYANS WILL BE BETTER OF WITH HIM!
