Methodist Church,one of the wealthiest
Church in Kenya instructed Kenyan
Constitutional lawyers Danstan Omari,
Martina Swiga, and Shadrack Wambui of
Sheria mtaani to file an application
before Court, seeking protection of the
church properties and newly elected
leadership.
The application to be filed before Court
by applicants seeks protection to
enable the Church smoothly run its
affairs without being interrupted by
goons allegedly hired by the
excommunicated officials of the Church.
As the presiding Bishop’s term was
extended after the respondents chicken
out and intentionally failed to attend
the ongoing court proceedings leading to
adjournement till September if any
issue of cost will arise.
The presiding Bishop Joseph Ntombura,
aggressively once again appealed to the
State to offer him security since his
life is in danger,for being firm against
illegal acquisition of the Church
properties including KeMU University.
Ambitious old retired Bishops are
against Methodist Church office
holders being incharge of the daily
operations.
The oldest church globally was
established in the Country year 1862 by
British Citizens faithfuls, and
speedily spread it’s branches within the
Country establishing several income
generating activities to assist in the
running of the church programs
worldwide.
“keep off the church properties if you
feel you have a lot of money to buy
anything on sight, your free and you can
as well buy private properties but
please keep off the church properties”
warned Lawyer Danstan Omari after being
instructed to move to Court.
Methodist church is a very wealthy
Christian religion organization with
several assets spread globally, where a
fraction of the profit generated from
the resources is spend in nurturing
youth talents worldwide,sponsoring
religious activities, assisting needy
and the poor.
Methodist University,one of the assets
at the center of the storm was
initiated in the year 1997, and is a
chartered Christian University with the
main campuses based in Meru, Mombasa and
Nairobi County Kenya.
KeMU University offers various causes
like pharmacy, surgery, school of
education, journalism, school of
economics and law , school of sciences.
The church through Lawyer Danstan Omari,
Paul Macharia , Omaiyo,Fredrick Bikeri,
Martina Swiga , Anita Masaki and
Shadrack Wambui of Sheria mtaani will be
filing an application seeking for orders
to protect the Church properties and
external interferences towards the
Church day to day operations.
Methodist church has been in the
forefront advocating to end uncultured
African traditional practice of female
genital mutilation by also assisting
communities undergoing difficult
challenges to overcome through financial
empowering.
While Students at KeMU University
through their elected leadership,
strongly condemned the indisciplined old
retired Bishops harbouring unfriendly
intentions towards the Church
development.
Kenyan Constitutional Lawyer Danstan
Omari together with his team of
attorneys vowed to defend his client
from alleged organised criminal gangs
from interfering with the Methodist
Church operations.
The lawyers stressed that they are ready
to proceed to the highest Court in the
land , the Supreme Court, if that is the
only place that will restore a peaceful
atmosphere among children of the
Almighty Great God.
The Church through their lawyers also
warned the former retired Bishops that
they risk being sued by their individual
names.
