Pastor James Ng’ang’a recently sparked strong reactions following his remarks during a sermon, where he openly reprimanded his congregants. He criticized some of his followers for continuing to attend churches he had previously shut down, claiming they carried a bad omen. He warned against defying his instructions, making it clear that he would no longer serve as their spiritual leader if they failed to comply with his directives.
The outspoken cleric did not hold back, expressing frustration with his followers and questioning his association with them. In a viral video, he stated that his congregants were not of his societal class or ministry. He compared his work to that of a rescue team and reminded them of his authority, warning that his church was not a place for protests or defiance.
Pastor Ng’ang’a firmly declared that those unwilling to follow his leadership should not expect him to be their prophet. He stated that if they ever needed spiritual guidance in the future, they should not turn to him, just as he would not reach out to them if he required support. Furthermore, those locked outside the church were dismissed outright, with the cleric telling them they were free to go elsewhere.
His statements have since ignited widespread reactions online, with mixed opinions surfacing. While some individuals defended his direct and unfiltered approach, others heavily criticized his remarks, deeming them arrogant and dismissive.
Various social media users weighed in with their perspectives. Some commented on his attitude, while others mocked the situation, stating that the preacher’s words reflected an increasing trend of controversial religious leadership. Some users remarked that his leadership style was problematic, while others noted that controversy seemed to follow him frequently.
In another incident, Pastor Ng’ang’a faced criticism for his response to Milka Moraa, a struggling mother of two who sought his assistance. Moraa had approached him for help after being locked out of her home due to unpaid rent. Rather than offering assistance, the cleric dismissed her plea and directed her to seek help from the police instead. This response fueled further discontent, with many questioning his approach to pastoral care.
As the reactions continue to circulate, the controversy surrounding Pastor Ng’ang’a remains a topic of discussion, with many questioning his leadership and the implications of his statements on his congregation.
