Pastor Ng’ang’a’s Unique Approach.
Pastor Ng’ang’a is no stranger to making waves with his unconventional preaching style.
During a past church service, he addressed the single members of his congregation, urging them to find partners within six months.
He humorously stated, “If you are not married, I am giving you a ‘maltimatum’ of six months from now. Or else…Why would you claim your partner was stolen by someone else? Stop nonsense.
Don’t tell me about mpango wa kando (side dishes). Tell me about your diseases and accidents. Tell me about your weaknesses because most married women have problems.”
The Mix of Reactions
The undated video quickly spread across social media, eliciting a wide range of reactions. Many found humor in Pastor Ng’ang’a’s “maltimatum,” while others questioned the use of English.
Netizens shared their thoughts on the matter, with some wondering where they could find partners within such a short timeframe, and others musing about the significance of marriage as a life goal.
