Father Paul Ogalo of St. Monica Catholic Church in Rapogi, Migori County, has been suspended for alleged misconduct by the Homa Bay Diocese.
The popular priest also known as Father Masaa or Sweet Paul was in the headlines for rapping in church as a way of preaching the gospel.
While confirming the suspension, Father Charles Kochiel, the Judicial Vicar of the inter-diocesan tribunal of the Archdiocese of Kisumu said Ogola was suspended over his conduct.
“We have suspended him for a year to give him time to reconsider his ways…every institution has its own code of conduct.”
The 45-year-old priest says he uses rap music to urge youth to stop using drugs and to get involved in environmental and social justice issues.
