The Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK), Mombasa Diocese, has formed a task-force to probe scandals that have rocked one of its churches in Bamburi, sparking chaos during the New Year services. 

Yesterday, ACK Mombasa Diocese Bishop Alphonse Baya said the church’s vicar general and Archdeacon were probing alleged sexual harassment of female congregants at St Stephen.
