MP Ichung’wah calls for the spiritual cleansing of parliament after the invasion by protesters in June.
Majority Leader in the National Assembly, Kimani Ichung’wah, has called for special prayers to sanctify Parliament following this year’s invasion that resulted in bloodshed.
Speaking in Muhoroni, Ichung’wah emphasized the importance of cleansing the house spiritually and preventing such events from recurring.
“I will speak to Speaker Moses Wetang’ula to explore how we can collaborate with religious leaders to sanctify the house after what transpired in June,” Ichung’wah said.
“We pray that such incidents may never happen again in the history of our country.”
Ichung’wah revealed that several church leaders have already requested these prayers, highlighting a shared concern for national healing and unity.
Reflecting on the Gen Z-led anti-tax bill protests earlier this year, the Majority Leader criticized some church leaders for veering into politics instead of fulfilling their spiritual roles.
“At that time, many of our church leaders abandoned their duty to guide us in a godly manner. They became more political than the politicians,” he remarked.

Ichung’wah also called on parents to take greater responsibility in guiding their children, condemning the language and behaviour exhibited during the protests.
“As parents, we must set good examples for our children. The chaos we saw involving our youth this year was a failure not only of parenting but also of the church,” he said.
“Some of the words those children used against leaders and even their parents are unimaginable for those of us who grew up in earlier generations.”
Ichung’wah urged collective effort from families, religious institutions, and society at large to prevent the recurrence of such incidents, emphasizing the need for moral and spiritual rejuvenation.
