Defiant Prophet DAVID OWUOR dares Government to investigate faith healings linked to his ministry and make findings public - “We are not asking for blind acceptance”

Sunday, January 04, 2025 - Renowned self-styled Prophet, David Owuor, has called on the Government to launch a formal investigation into alleged faith healings linked to his ministry.

Speaking in a statement on Sunday, January 5^th, Owuor said his ministry has compiled extensive medical documentation covering numerous cases of individuals who claim to have been healed during his crusades.

“Given that we have extensive medical documentation spanning numerous cases, we’re calling on the Government of Kenya, through the Ministry of Health and the KMPDC, to conduct a thorough, formal investigation of these documented healings.”

“We’re not asking for blind acceptance. We’re asking for an examination,” he stated.

Owuor added that once investigations are complete, findings should be made public to allow Kenyans to make informed judgments.

His remarks come just a day after the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) issued a stern warning over claims that serious medical conditions were healed at Prophet Owuor’s mega crusade in Nakuru.

KMPDC CEO David Kariuki cautioned that such claims pose grave risks to public health, stressing that medical practice in Kenya must adhere to scientific and ethical standards.

The council noted that statements reportedly made by medical practitioners in a religious setting raised concerns about professional conduct and patient safety.

“All medical treatments and interventions must be grounded in scientific evidence, rigorous testing, and regulatory approval,” KMPDC said, warning that unsupported claims could mislead patients, deter them from proven therapies, and even result in loss of life.

While acknowledging the role of faith, the council urged the public not to abandon prescribed treatment for chronic illnesses in favour of unverified alternatives.

KMPDC confirmed that investigations are underway in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, adding that disciplinary or legal action will be taken against any practitioners found to have breached regulations.
