Lead Minister - Life Church Limuru, Pastor T, has narrated an encounter he had with a lady infected with HIV, thanking God for preserving his life.
In an undated video, the preacher recalled a day he went out with his friends and later got intimate with the said woman.
A few months later she died of HIV/AIDS.
"I went to a club and the first thing that happened was a fight, a bottle of alcohol was thrown, ikanipita ikagonga ukuta and the whole club went quiet. How that bottle missed me is only God who can explain.
“And on that Christmas, I remember…because of the spirit, I was high and drunk. I messed up and slept with a lady,” he said.
Adding: “Later we buried that lady with HIV [sic].”
The preacher also divulged that he tried to date a different lady and a similar thing happened. According to him, the lady had a sugar daddy who succumbed to AIDS.

Pastor T on mentoring, restoration
The preacher is often vocal on matters of faith and relationships. In 2022, he laid hands on the Akorino twins who became the talk of town after claiming they were in a relationship with the same woman who ended up getting pregnant.
Sharing pictures from the church service on his social media page, Pastor T said the twins reached out to him for prayers after admitting they had lied to the public for clout.
The preacher wrapped his arms around them and restored them to Christ, calling on Kenyans to forgive the trio for their earlier antics.
"Am happy to announce that the twins reached out and we had a powerful conversation and had prayers of restoration. They are sorry for what they did, Mentorship is like nursing and you must be willing to give the care with love,” he said.
