Addressing congregants during the fund drive, Wetang’ula emphasized the vital role of the church in fostering Kenya’s moral values and social cohesion. He called on religious institutions to continue praying for peace and coexistence across the nation.
“The Church is the cornerstone of societal norms. We continue to encourage the Church to pray for our country’s peace and coexistence,” Wetang’ula stated.
