Bishop Kiengei Responds to Alleged Attack by Church Member Elias Njeru
Bishop Ben Muthee Kiengei, the founder of Jesus Christ Compassion Ministry, has publicly addressed the shocking case involving Elias Njeru, a church member accused of stabbing his partner, Florence Wanjiku, in Nakuru’s Olive area.
The incident, which has stirred public outrage, allegedly took place at the couple’s rental home following a domestic dispute.
During a Sunday service on November 24, Bishop Kiengei spoke directly to his congregation about the troubling situation. He expressed deep concern about the gravity of the allegations and emphasized that the church was not in a position to interfere with legal matters.
“The work of the preacher is to deal with sin, and the work of the government is to deal with crime. If there is a crime, allow the government and security personnel to handle it,” said Kiengei, urging the authorities to investigate the matter thoroughly and ensure justice was served.
The Bishop made it clear that his church holds a strong stance against any form of violence, especially against women. “All men in this church, we have enough respect for our women, and we don’t have any intention of harming them,” he stated firmly, reassuring his congregation that such acts do not reflect the values of his ministry.
The case has raised questions about the safety of domestic relationships and the role of religious leaders in addressing issues of domestic violence.
While the legal process continues, Bishop Kiengei’s message serves as a reminder that churches must remain steadfast in upholding their moral teachings while respecting the authority of law enforcement to handle criminal matters.
The incident remains under investigation, with authorities working to gather more details. Bishop Kiengei’s call for justice echoes the broader societal demand for swift and fair handling of domestic violence cases.
