So according to the The Nairobian , Apostle Kenneth Kiarie of God’s Covenant Holiness Church in Mihang’o, Kayole in Nairobi has ended his marriage of 87 days and sent his 23-year-old pregnant wife packing.
And this is why he did that.
Apostle Kenneth Kiarie says he borrowed money to wed his wife and due to that, his church is running at a loss and also for whatever reasons, the rate at which people paid tithes seem to have dwindled and that is his wife’s fault adding that, she wanted to control him which is not appropriate tradition wise hence his decision to end the marriage.
The pastor is being accused of throwing out his newly wedded wife to marry another woman. Even before the honeymoon was over, their marriage hit the rocks sometime in July, with both parties pointing accusing fingers at each other.
“He used to tell me that if I left, I would not get a husband, and that he had scores of beautiful girls hanging around him,” says Marion, who is now back at her Murang’a village.
He blames me over a Sh70,000 debt he incurred to fund the wedding. He claimed I threw hot tea and stove at him and attempted to beat him in front of his parents,” says Marion, adding that the man of God often left her with Sh5 for cooking oil on grounds that she was a villager”.
However, Pastor Kiarie denied the accusation and instead accused Marion :
“Actually, that was the third time I chased her and it has now been successful. She wanted to control me but that is not African. I said we rather separate than have one of us dead— She even said I never bought her underwear.
I don’t consider her sober and I want her sanity checked. I believe nobody can stay with her unless she changes. I did not want to send her away. I have never assaulted her, but being a pastor, everybody thinks I am the problem. A wife means a lot to a man, but Marion is not worth living with. She will harm me,”claims Kiarie.
While Marion claims the pastor was pressurised by his parents and siblings to dump her, Kiarie says she was spoilt by her parents who failed to reach out to the other side and mend differences.
Both admitted that the four months they courted was too short to really know each other.
“We had not shared a house or bed before we wedded,” says Kiarie.
