In a surprising and dramatic turn of events, Pastor Ng’ang’a recently claimed that approximately 700 women walked out of his church during a service dedicated to unveiling his wife, an event he had hoped would strengthen community ties and foster a sense of unity.
Instead, the unexpected exodus has sparked intense discussion and debate both within his congregation and across the broader community. Pastor Ng’ang’a expressed his disappointment, using the phrase “Hata ushers” to convey his disbelief and frustration at the reaction from the women, many of whom are long-time members of the church.
According to Ng’ang’a, many women hoped to married to him due to his vast wealth.
“When I wanted to marry my wife, this church had a big problem. The church was so flooded. Several women had been approaching me. Because when you have an anointing and also wealth, women come into your life. They are everywhere. So when I unveiled my wife, believe me, or not, 700 women stood and walked away. They knew my first wife was dead and had hoped I would pick them. Even ushers walked out, wondering why I couldn’t have picked them. I lost 4000(people)… I stood and told them to go away; she was mine, not God’s. Some people said she was a child..,” Pastor Ng’ang’a said.
The incident not only raises questions about the dynamics of the congregation but also reflects deeper societal issues regarding gender roles and expectations in religious settings. As the church grapples with this unexpected fallout, reactions from congregants have varied widely.
As Pastor Ng’ang’a seeks to address the concerns of his congregation and move forward from this event, many are watching closely to see how it will affect the church’s unity and future direction.
