The African Divine Church (ADC) has called on Kenyans to unite and support the government as it moves to fulfill its pledges.
Rev Solomon Magembe highlighted the importance of collaboration and peace for the smooth running of the country.
“We expect the government to deliver but the administration cannot fulfill its promises if it does not get the necessary support from the people,” Magembe, the former MCA for Makina Ward in Kibra, stated.
He reiterated that the unity of the people is critical if the government is to deliver pledges.
“When you criticise the government, it is also proper that you propose the way forward,” he asserted.
Magembe spoke when presiding over the baptism of 114 children.
ADC, Canaan Region under Boyani Headquarters, held its annual baptism ceremony at Kilimani Primary School, Nairobi.
Magembe emphasised the significance of baptism as a symbol of spiritual renewal and commitment to God.
The event, conducted once every year on the 1st Sunday of December brought together parents, guardians, and community members in a joyful celebration of faith and unity.
The atmosphere was filled with prayers, blessings, and a deep sense of togetherness.
As Magembe urged support for the government, President William Ruto reiterated his commitment to working with religious leaders.
The President said the State is not in competition with the church despite perceived cold wars.
Ruto said the state and the church were not in any competition and urged the church to forge a unity of purpose with his administration.
"The State is not in competition with the church. The
church must work with the State to unite Kenyans. We cannot move forward as a
country on a divisive foundation," he said.
He spoke during an interdenominational church service in Kimana town, Kajiado South Constituency.
Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi and Cabinet Secretaries Kipchumba Murkomen (Sports) and Soipan Tuya (Defence), Kajiado Governor Joseph Ole Lenku and his Narok counterpart and Patrick Ntutu, Senate Speaker Amason Kingi and a host of MPs accompanied him.
