This scenario reminds me of this letter that was written to Hounarable Doctor Bishop Mpig wanjiru by some of her disgruntled congregation and published by Kaiganjo.

Here we go: ""...ever seen this before,
Dear Honourable Mpig Pastor Bishop M Wanjiru,
After doing a lot of soul searching and meditation we have decided to share with you one or two displeasures….we have been one of your devoted members of congregation ever since you started this church…we have watched it grow from a humble beginning into what it is now under your relentless effort and hard work….we have admired the way you have approached all and sundry regarding the distribution of spiritual advise and food…we as your congregation have fought real battles out there in your support and for what we as members believe in….
We, however, wish to let you know that we are not pleased by the way you are managing the affairs of the church in which all our confidence lies…in the not too distant past you intimated that you would enter politics by vying for Mpigship in one of the city constituencies. we remember we prayed and fasted day and night for three days for you not to engage in politics…we even went ahead to send Right Rev Timothy Njoya who has a vast experience in church-government conflicts, but you were determined not to let anything distract you…When we realized that nothing was going to stop you from vying for a political space, we decided to support you although we felt that it was not right..
No sooner had you started jostling for the political space did you start messing up…
first, you are not the genuine occupier of the political space that you are comfortably occupying….you occupied that space through open stealing of votes and trickery which is something that you always preached against in the church every Sunday of the week! We will not go into details of acquisition of the political space as that is not our intention of writing to you…
Ever since you started attending the pigsty with other Mpigs you have slowly metamophised into another pastor that we know not of…you have never raised your fingure in that sty even when everything is going wrong…you have never sconned at your colleagues when they make oppressive decisions which do not favour the electorate…you have never given any suggestions or showed any enthusiasm in the house proceedings which you only attend twice a week only as a technical appearance.…in other words you have been welcomed and oathed into the pigsty fraternity…
Back to the church, everything is a total mess because there is no dividing line between divinity/religion and politics…during the mass there is too much politics (about 95%). At some point we are always wondering whether it is mass or a political rally because you bring some notorious political elements in your political party and in our midst who hijack the occasion and turn it into something else…
Lately you made a fatal error of associating yourself with the mungiki gang….you should have consulted some of your colleagues in the pigsty before doing that as they know one or two things about this gang…you should also have asked yourself why they would come in droves into our church and then all of a sudden disappear despite having gotten “saved”….you should have asked yourself why they could not be accepted in any other established church….remember some of their traditional regaria was left in our church under one of your confidants custody….and now we hear that their peers are after your neck and you want the earthly beings called the policemen to protect you…we are confused here because you always preach to us that whenever you walk in the valley of death, you have nothing to fear for the Lord is on your side…this is betrayal!!!
If this gang comes calling, you will be on your own since you ignored all our advise and decided to do things your way…like you always say “Jesus carried His cross to be crucified for our sins” we say that “you will carry your own cross to be crucified for your own sins”"
What will the Bishop preach in her church tommorow Sunday???
