There was drama at the Nairobi Central Seventh-Day Adventist (SDA) Church in Nairobi, yesterday after two splinter groups nearly engaged in a fistfight.

The Saturday service was stopped by the police who ordered the presiding pastor from the pulpit and directed worshipers to leave the church following a public spat of the senior church officials.
