Shakahola massacre: Sweet tongue was Makenzi's main asset as he lured followers to death

In an exclusive interview, Ms Masha claims she was a close confidant and aid to Makenzi's wife, Rhoda Mumbua Maweu, before the Malindi-based church closed down in 2019.

"Before the church was closed down, my husband was Makenzi's deputy preacher. This put me as the fourth senior-most member after Makenzi, his wife, and my husband," she said.
