"You Will Be Judged" Pastor’s Fiery Warning to Speaker In Ruto’s Eyes Steals Spotlight At Ichung’wah's Dad’s Burial

Kikuyu witnessed an unexpected moment of boldness during the burial of Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah’s father when a pastor delivered a pointed message to national leaders, including Speaker Moses Wetangula, with President William Ruto in attendance.

The cleric used the occasion to address what he described as Parliament’s neglect of ordinary citizens’ needs. 

He openly criticized debates and political battles that, in his view, benefit few while leaving families to struggle with unemployment and the rising cost of living. 

Wetangula’s name was mentioned directly, accompanied by a warning that leadership comes with accountability beyond this life.

The reaction from mourners was immediate. Applause and cheers filled the venue, breaking the traditional solemnity of a funeral. 

President Ruto, Deputy President Kithure Kindiki, and other senior officials listened attentively, maintaining decorum, while Wetangula kept a neutral expression. 

Despite the calm faces of the top leadership, the crowd’s response highlighted strong public resonance with the pastor’s message.

Observers say the sermon reflects widespread frustration among Kenyans who feel political leaders are increasingly detached from the daily struggles of citizens. 

By addressing Wetangula directly, the pastor symbolized a growing demand for responsibility and moral integrity among those in power.

Several attendees later expressed that the pastor spoke truths many were hesitant to voice. 

As the burial concluded, the message continued to echo among attendees. 

While the occasion was meant to honor a life lost, it became a platform for reflection on the responsibilities of leadership. 

Many mourners left discussing the sermon, seeing it as a timely call for transparency, humility, and service from those in office.
