Priest ditches church, returns to worship his fathers' gods

Living

An Anglican priest who served in the church for 30 years up to the position of a canon has denounced the faith for Mwene Nyaga, the Agikuyu traditional religion.

Formerly known as Rev Canon Peter Kinyanjui, the man is now called Thiongo wa Kinyanjui. He says the change came after "finding myself on the theatrical road to Damascus".

Kinyanjui joined St Paul's United Theological College, the present-day St Paul's University, in 1990 to study theology. He was ordained into priesthood by then ACK Archbishop Manasses Kuria in 1993.
