The push by a section of Kikuyu traditionalists to convert Christians to worship their traditional god seems to have taken root in central Kenya.
The vigorous campaign by a section of traditionalists who refer to themselves as Kikuyu seers has led to a major ideological difference between them and clergy who are now arming themselves in an all-out spiritual war. Two years ago, the then Nairobi Catholic Archbishop John Cardinal Njue sent a circular to all churches saying he was concerned that a group calling itself Gwata Ndai was coercing the faithful to join it.
