There was drama at the PCEA Church in Kanyama,
Mathira Constituency , Kenya on Saturday, April 8th ,
when a wedding taking place was temporary stopped
after a woman claims that the groom was her husband
and father of her children .
The woman identified as Lydia Mugure stormed the
church accompanied by her two children and demanded
entry after police officers locked the main gate denying
her and other church members access . While outside
the church , she cried that her husband had neglected
her and their children since December 2016 . She claims
he was getting married to the officiating minister’ s
secretary named Grace .
“We broke up on December 31 , 2016 . I have no problem
with our separation but he has decided to marry again . I
have two children, one aged 10 and the other aged 5.
What I want is he takes his children with him . He has
married another woman in pretence of having no
children. I also want to marry without the stress of
being a mother , ” she said.
“We have been married for ten years . I don’ t want him.
On Wednesday , he had told me that the wedding would
not take place. As at yesterday (Friday April 7th ) plans
of the wedding were still on. That is why I came here
today to disrupt the wedding . Let us first settle the
children dispute and then we can move on after that .
He has a pending case at the children’ s court. He has
been summoned four times to appear before the court,
but he has never honoured the court summons” ranted
Ms Mugure .
After exchanging their vows, the new couple quickly left
the church while being hidden by family members . A
crowd outside the church reportedly stoned the
couple’ s convoy as it sped off .
Congregants , who attended the wedding criticized the
officiating Minister named Moses Muturi for rushing the
function, saying they had been informed of the wedding
just few days ago . They threatened to boycott Sunday
service unless Rev . Muturi apologizes and rectifies his
mistake .
“Rev. Muturi is corrupt . He had received money from
the groom and that is why he rushed the whole
exercise, ” a congregant who spoke under anonymity ,
alleged.
“The two, who tied the knot, are not our church
members. We protested the announcement of their
planned wedding last Sunday. Today, we were locked
out of the church . There was no single elder in the
church to witness the wedding . That was just wrong .
The Rev . has smeared mud on our church , ”another
source added.
However, the Minister said the wedding can only be
stopped by a court order.
“So, we had no reason to stop the wedding. So, the
two’ s marriage is now formal. The former wife can go
to court, ” said Rev . Muturi
