Senator Thang’wa reveals the secrets and intrigues behind working as Pastor Ng’ang’a employee at his church.
Kiambu Senator Karungo wa Thang’wa has offered insights and his experiences while working for Pastor James Ng’ang’a of Neno Evangelism Centre, in the early years of his journalism career.
In an interview with a local radio station held on Thursday, February 22, the lawmaker revealed several secrets about working under Pastor Ng’ang’a, ranging from salary payments to employee relations.
Thang’wa, who was the head of other employees at the church, was given a monthly compensation of Ksh30,000, while the rest of the employees were paid for the work done in that particular month.
“From the salary, one was expected to offer 10 percent tithe of their salary as an offering,” he narrated.
The Kiambu Senator reminisced about the times when the pastor would arbitrarily reduce employee salary in some months for no apparent reason.
The pastor would challenge the contributions of underpaid staff members to the prosperity of the church.
“He never used to pay us via the bank. He would call us in his office within the church and call out names, whereby he would pay us according to what we had done in that particular month,” he added.
Thang’wa added that his salary was never slashed as they were good friends with the pastor at the time, whereas some of the employees would, unfortunately, get less money than in previous months.

“What have you done this month? How much do I pay you for that? Ksh15,000? This month you get Ksh5,000,” Thang’wa recalled Ng’ang’a’s statements while making the payments.
In addition to offering financial advice to young people, Thang’wa suggested starting a side hustle to help cover additional expenses for utilities like electricity and water.
Recalling his days as a carpenter, he emphasized the need of not being fussy when it comes to employment prospects.
“We used to make coffins at order. One time I suggested to my brother we make two at a time instead, and wait for customers with ready coffins. We had to stop because people kept asking who the extra one belonged to as it was a small village,” he stated.
