Pastors have been under attack in the recent past, not so long the self proclaimed ‘mighty’ prophet Dr David Owour was under siege after he was in a bitter battle with kins of his follower.
Three Members of Parliament castigated the media for what they said were unwarranted attacks on the church and dismissed suggestions that all preachers must hold a minimum of a Bachelor’s Degree.
The trio, made up of Embakasi East MP Babu Owino, together with Igembe South MP John Paul Mwirigi and Nominated MP Gideon Keter, were addressing the media in Parliament.
“Some people want to ground the church, those who are saying pastors should have a degree are wrong,” said Mr. Keter.
Mr. Keter also said comments made on Citizen TV’s #NewsGang show last week Thursday allegedly attacking the church were unfounded.
“Some opinions should be kept to oneself,” he stated.
His sentiments were echoed by MP Babu Owino who revealed that he is a follower of Prophet Owuor, adding that the media erred by attacking him and the church.
