Deputy President William Ruto is right to donate to the church, Holy Ghost Coptic Church of Africa Father John Pesa has said.
Speaking on Sunday at the church in Nyanza region, Pesa said that the second in command has not done anything wrong to donate to the churches.
He asked those who keep criticising him over the church donations to stop doing the same, adding that he is entitled to do anything with his new notes.
He also said that the fundraisers are wonderful way for the DP to promote the churches. Pesa also said that the church is not in a position to determine whether the cash an individual is holding is from dirty dealings, adding that human beings should stop being judgmental.
“We support church fundraisers to lift the living standards of our people and we cannot distinguish dirty money from good ones unless the authorities issue caution," said Father Pesa, as quoted by Daily Nation.
He also said that one cannot claim to be Holy yet he or she is stingy. The man of God said that leaders should be a good example to the people they lead if they want them to realise the fruits of salvation at the end of the day. DP Ruto has been facing fierce criticism over donations to the church.
