Deputy President William Ruto Gifts New Kisumu Archbishop Anyolo with Brand New Car

Deputy President William Ruto has gifted newly installed Kisumu Catholic Diocese archbishop Rev. Philip Anyolo with a brand new car worth millions of shillings.

Ruto has presented the Mitsubishi Pajero to Rev. Anyolo shortly after he was installed as the new Kisumu archbishop during a ceremony held at Uzima College grounds in the lakeside city.

“I would like to thank the President for accepting to contribute in this noble course and enabling us to raise the funds to purchase this vehicle,” Ruto said while handing the car to Anyolo.

Anyolo, who doubles up as the chairperson of the Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB), takes over from Archbishop Zacchaeus Okoth who is retiring after being in the helm in the past 50 years.

The clergyman has also received another brand new Toyota V8 from Kisumu congregants.

Other leaders present during his installation include Opposition leader Raila Odinga, Cabinet Secretaries Eugene Wamalwa (Devolution) and Raychelle Omamo (Defence) and Governors Anyang’ Nyong’o (Kisumu) and Wycliffe Wangamati (Bungoma).

Others are MPs Chris Wamalwa (Kiminini) and Otiende Amolo (Rarieda); Senators Moses Kajwang (Homa Bay) and Moses Wetang'ula (Bungoma).

Wafula Chebukati: Uko wapi?

Si unaona mkristo (Ruto) anaendelea kutoka hongo makanisani ili wafuasi kondoo (blind followers) wampigie kura 2022. Kitendo kama hiki ni kinyume cha Sura ya Sita ya katiba mpya ya Kenya.

Tutaona kama wewe unatamruhusu kugombea kiti chochore 2022. Wewe Wafula, una uwezo wa kuwakataza majambazi na matapeli kugombea kiti chochote nchini mwetu!

Christianity was part of our oppressors during the struggle for independence. It pacified us in preparation for Imperialism, Colonialism,and Neo-colonialism and trashed our cultures and traditions and forever brainwashed our people by imposing a foreign God and foreign names. Christianity has done more damage than good in our lives.
How can we expect the church to take a moral stand against corruption and looting of public coffers by the same leaders who are gifting them with millions worth of high end vehicles etc.
Today Christianity is the breeding ground for corruption and immorality. How can a church accept a vehicle without questioning where the money came from. Look at this picture- An arch bishop riding high in a brand new Pajero visiting the blind, crippled, homeless and the poor. I wonder whether the Arch Bishop cares that Jesus chose an Ass instead of riding on a horse to enter Jerusalem?
God give Kenya leaders not politicians. God help Kenya!!!

Pathetic to say the least. And for this archbishop to accept it, sickening. Hii Christianity ni upuzi tu. Matapeli as Imara would say it.

You guys are pretending to be good. Instead of appreciating you attack Bishop and DP... Christianity is about giving.. If you are not a Christian you hardly understand .. There was No cars during the time of Jesus...

Did I hear him say that he was sent by the president to bribe these church people? And this is happening in a country where people are dying because hospitals lack cancer treatment machines worth just a few millions. The Catholic Church is said to be the richest institution in the world. Do they need these gifts?

What happened to part of Acts 20:35 ‘...It is more blessed to give than to receive.’? Hopeful the bishop will not keep it; donate the same to the work of God.

@Koskey J. : Rafiki yako Mwana Mariamu (Yesu/Yeshua) aliiba punda wa wenyewe. Alitoa amri, " nileteeni punda yule." Hakumlipa mwenye punda! Huo ni wizi na utapeli.

@Mugikuyu: Waswahili husema, "Mtoto wa nyoka ni nyoka." Tazama jinsi wafuasi wa Mwana Mariamu (Yeshua/Yesu) walivyofanya duniani:

1. Waliiba nchi za watu duniani kote na kuwaua karibu wenyenchi wote. Sasa nchi ya Marekani ya Kusini, na kati, na Kaskazini yote iko chimi ya wakristo isipokuwa Bolivia ambayo inatawaliwa na Evo Morales kiongozi wa pekee mzaliwa (indigenous) wa nchi hiyo. Visiwa vyote vya Caribbean wenyeji waliuawa na wakristo hutoka Yuropa halafu wakavifanya chini yao.
2. Hata sasa, nchi ya Australia na kisiwa cha Tasmania ambayo iliibiwa na wakristo kutoka Uingereza haijarudishiwa wenyenchi.

3. New Zealand pamoja na visiwa vyote vilivyomo katika bahari ya Pacific vilinyakuliwa na matapeli wakristo kutoka Yuropa.

4. Usisahau nchi yetu ya Kenya pamoja na nchi nyingine katika Bara la Maabara (Afrika) ziliibiwa na matapeli na majambazi wakristo kutoka Yuropa. Kwa hiyo, ni lazima tuwashukuru wote waliojitolea kupigana na wakristo hawa kutoka Yuropa ili tupate uhuru.

5. Tazama sasa wanaoiba pesa za serikali ya Kenya, karibu asilimia tisini na tisa (99% ni wakristo.

6. Mwishowe, aliyesema Wafrika wauzwe kama watumwa alikuwa mkristo Nicholas the Fifth. Tapeli huyu alikuwa mkuu wa kanisa la kikatoliki (pope).

The catholic church in Kenya has become the third wheel in Kenya corruption. How can Anyolo accept stolen cars from suspect #1? We should outsource the catholic church leadership to the catholic church in DRC.
