Corruption involving grabbing of public and private lands has become so rampant that people if fear for being evicted from their own lands by powerful people in the corridors of power. A majority thanks God for finishing another year in their own property! Churches and schools alike, face the same danger.
Mariakani Christian Center (MCC) Church, South B, has been and is still under the danger of being unlawfully acquired by a 'land-hungry' developer with the help of the Church's General Assembly select members of the Clergy through a nonexistent company under the advice of a bogus lawyer.
It goes on record that these Church leaders as well as their counterparts have previously, allegedly, changed the user of plot L.R. 1/308 on Dennis Pritt, illegally given it to a developer and fraudulently benefitted from the proceeds thereof. This is land that had previously been set aside for the Pastors' houses.
What happened in this case is that a few people appreciated themselves with a few million shillings for having engaged in outright corruption. It is sad that even as the land was being 'developed' the Church was allegedly lied to by their leaders that the proceeds would be used to raise the Pastors' standards of life by giving them better pays.
As I write this a very high percentage of Church of God in E.A (K)'s Pastors' economic conditions' are despicable. Many of the physical places of worship are in very deplorable conditions thanks to a select regime that rips off the Church left right and center.
Marikani's land presently in question is L.R209/6823-I.R.21781. Both of these pieces of land were given to the Church by the government in early 1960s with special conditions and the lands were to be held in trust by the Church Trustees for the benefit of the local congregation.
A 1.7 acres piece of land in South B valued at more than 800 million is, according to them, supposed to be given away to be developed into a commercial center with apartments, shopping mall, and underground parking lots. The only thing the whole Church allegedly gets is 6 two-bedroom apartments, 8 one-bedroom apartments and 40 parking slots! This is unacceptable.
To make the matters worse the apartments have been valued at 7.5M and 4.5M respectively. This is in 2021 (3 years time)!, in South B!. This gives a total of 81M! Technically, we're fraudulently giving away a birthright of more than 800M for a mere 81M.
This is not the Church Christ Jesus would want to come back to take as a bride. The members of the Church have sworn not to relent both spiritually and physically. They believe the war is theirs to lose. Shame on our members of the clergy who are perpetrating corruption even in Church!
A Church is a vital part of any community and we won't sit and watch as it's leaders misuse what God has put in their custody. I personally will not shut up while evil dominates. I will not get tired. The fight is on!
