The Catholic Archdiocese of Nairobi rejected a cash donation made by President William Ruto and Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja during a church service at Soweto Catholic Church on Sunday.
During the service, Ruto donated Sh600,000 to the church choir while Sakaja gave Sh200,000.
Ruto at the same time gave Sh2 million for the construction of the parish priest's house and pledged another Sh3 million for the same.
Nairobi Archdiocese Bishop Philip Anyolo said the donated cash would be returned and added that the promised bus would not be accepted.
He cited a directive by the Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops that banned such donations.
