Geoffrey Mosiria Changes Tune about Closing Pastor Ng'ang'a's Church, Seeks Forgiveness

• The Nairobi county had come out to claim that Pastor Ng'ang'a owed them KSh 10 million in land payments
• The preacher who is in the US refuted the claims and noted that places of worship had payment waived, and dared the officials to go to his church
• Geoffrey Mosiria, who had visited the church, changed his stance and told TUKO.co.ke that they did not close his Ng'ang'a premises

Narobi county chief officer for environment, Geoffrey Mosiria, has had a change of heart after visiting Pastor Ng'ang'a's church, Neno Evangelism Centre.

Ng'ang'a had found himself in trouble with the county government, which claimed he owed them KSh 10 million for land repayment.

The controversial preacher who is in the US dared the county government to close his church and rubbished claims that he was unable to pay the debt.

In an interview with TUKO.co.ke Mosiria shut down claims that Ng'ang'a's church was closed and confirmed that they had paid the unified business permit needed to operate his hotel.

Geoffrey Mosiria's message to pastor Ng'ang'a

However, Mosiria who went to Ng'ang'a's church is now asking the man of God not to curse them and instead pray for them to live longer.

In his words:

"Let me first thank our friend, Apostle Ng'ang'a, who is a man of God, a man I respect because he is someone who does the work of God. I have been following him, and he is someone I would like to meet. We visited him as he said, but after consultations, guidance and soul searching because we are Christians, our boss advised that the church of God has to be waived."

He, however, urged the hotel that serves Ng'ang'a's congregants to be inspected by the public health officials to ensure that they meet the recommended standards.

"Apostle, we are like your children, so please do not curse your children. Do not say Michuki was there and he died. No one would like to die. As a man of God, pray for us to live a longer life, so we can experience more like you. If there was a place where you were wronged, let people sit down and talk. We shall visit you and have a sitting, and as our client, serve you. No one will stop the gospel; it must continue. come back home, so we can continue the gospel," he further said.

Ng'ang'a responds after county officials' visit

The man of God denied refusing to pay the debt, explaining that the matter was currently before the courts and citing an earlier government waiver.

The pastor fired a stern warning to the county government, dismissing their recent actions and asserting his confidence in the ongoing legal process.
