Friday, July 4, 2025 - Photos have emerged showing the modest tin-roofed (mabati) structure that has long served as the State House church, the same one that President William Ruto now plans to upgrade into a Ksh 1.2 billion ultra-modern sanctuary.
The current structure is a simple iron-sheet building tucked
within the State House compound.
With basic seating and minimal fittings, the church appears
to have served its purpose quietly for years, mostly during weekly prayer
meetings and private worship sessions led by past and current leaders.
President Ruto has defended the move to replace it with a
state-of-the-art church facility, clarifying that he is using his own funds for
the upgrade, not public money.
“Hapa State House nilikuta kanisa ya mabati… I have no
apologies to make for building a church at State House,” the President said, affirming
his commitment to the project.
