Fresh drama has erupted at Jesus Compassion Ministries (JCM) following the unexpected resignation of church minister and administrator James wa Makumbi, raising questions among congregants and Kenyans online.
Makumbi, a close ally of Bishop Muthee Kiengei, confirmed that he would no longer serve at the church, sparking intense speculation on social media about the reasons behind his departure.
Context of the Resignation
The exit comes just weeks after President William Ruto visited the church in a high-profile event, making a substantial donation reportedly worth millions.
The visit drew mixed reactions across the country and within religious circles, prompting some to question whether the political attention and large donations influenced recent leadership changes.
This is the second high-profile exit from JCM in a short period, intensifying rumors of possible internal disagreements or pressure linked to the political spotlight.
Public Reaction
Many netizens have expressed confusion and concern, asking:
“Nini kinaendelea pale JCM?”
Despite the growing discussion, neither Makumbi nor Bishop Kiengei has publicly shared detailed reasons for the decision.
Congregants are hoping the church leadership will soon provide clarity to address the uncertainty surrounding these developments.
