Leaders were saying the county has been hit by the worst drought in 200 years which affected thousands of families, especially in the arid and semi-arid areas.

Dr Owuor said Kenyans must dedicate themselves to God for the famine to end as he called on President Uhuru to organize for a national prayer day to save the situation.

Leaders in North Eastern had warned that the situation was continuing to deteriorate as the drought was threatening their lives and those of their animals.

Prophet Owuor said Kenya was experiencing drought and famine because politicians had distanced themselves from God.

“This country cannot ignore the Lord. Rain will not come from the United Nations, Security Council, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, a government policy paper. Rain comes from the Lord.”

“I see a famine that is coming to this end, I see people walking; the kind of a long call with a plate and a saucepan in the hand. So, the Lord is asking this country to repent and return to holiness and prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah.”

"There must be a national repentance where all the leadership and all the people will gather as one person and go before the Lord,” said the prophet as quoted by Tuko.
