Pastor James Ng’ang’a has unveiled ambitious plans to construct a prayer centre in Mbeere, Embu County, alongside a small town, aiming to combine spiritual outreach with community development.
A Vision for the Community
In a video shared online, the preacher showcased his expansive plot of land, explaining that the project will include roads, electricity, and facilities for residents to watch sermons and football. “We are deep in Mbeere, and you can see my land. That is where we will build a prayer centre. We will build a town and bring electricity. We will also bring roads. We will set up a town here with TV so people can watch the preachings and football,” he said.
Mixed Reactions Online
Social media users responded with a mix of admiration and humor. While some praised the initiative for fostering local development, others speculated on potential financial benefits. Comments ranged from calling the project “incredible” to jokingly likening it to political promises.
Background on Pastor Ng’ang’a
Pastor Ng’ang’a previously revealed that a woman gifted him a KSh 42 million piece of land, sparking curiosity about his intended use of the property. He has also been open about personal challenges following the death of his first wife, including attention from female congregation members during that period. He eventually remarried, which attracted public attention.
On land matters, Pastor Ng’ang’a confirmed receiving a notice regarding unpaid land rates on a Nairobi property involved in a court dispute. He stated that he plans to settle the debt upon returning to the country.
Looking Ahead
With plans for a prayer centre and a fully developed town, Pastor Ng’ang’a’s project in Mbeere aims to blend spiritual guidance with infrastructure development, potentially transforming the local community while attracting further attention online.
