Monday, March 25, 2024 - First Lady Rachel Ruto has announced the establishment of a unique team of intercessors to back up the Kenyan police readying themselves for the peacekeeping mission in Haiti.
Speaking during a gospel event
at Weston Hotel, Rachel revealed that she was involved in the intense plans to
have the prayer team established long before the team flew out to the Caribbean
country.
According to her, the law
enforcers would need prayers to accompany their mission.
Constituting the team were
intercessors from Kenya, the US, and Haiti, she said.
"Some friends of ours have been holed up in a meeting for two days discussing the issues of Haiti because we felt at the national altar that we cannot allow our police to go to Haiti without prayer.
"So, they have been strategizing on a spiritual solution and
prayer for our police as they go to Haiti and pray for the people there,"
she said.
"We were in that meeting
where he had pastors from Haiti and America, and saw how these countries can
come together to pray because with prayer everything is possible," added
Rachel.
However, the move has not gone
down well with Kenyans, who accused her of wasting taxpayers’ money on prayers
when President William Ruto was warned by former US envoy and majority of
Kenyans that the mission was risky and should not send the Kenyan police to
Haiti.
Kenya and Haiti on March 1
signed an agreement formalizing the deployment of 1,000 police officers to the
North American nation.
The High Court on January 26
blocked the deployment of Kenyan officers to Haiti saying the National Security
Council lacks authority to deploy police officers outside the country.
