Catholic priest in charge of St Peter's Oyugis Church in Homa Bay County, Father Tom Nicholas Mboya has expressed concern over lewd dressing by some churchgoers, which he says is immoral. Fr Mboya said he cannot not keep quiet when his sheep go astray. This became evident last Sunday during a prayer service at his church. Fr Mboya, who presided over the service condemned told women and girls who go to church in indecent dressing to stop it.
