A clergyman has been arrested after allegedly swindling ACK Mwea Town Church over Ksh.2 million which was meant for the purchase of 410 seats.

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) said that Gilbert Kariuki and his spouse were contracted to deliver seats for the church on February 9, 2013 but absconded to terms and escaped.

“The church leadership contracted Apostle Blessed Gilbert Kariuki and his spouse to deliver 410 seats to the church on or before April 10, 2023 but the ‘Man of God’ neither delivered nor showed up,” read part of the statement.

Reports by church faithful revealed that efforts to trace the preacher were unavailing which prompted the church vicar to file a report to the police.

The police successfully apprehended Kariuki and he was arraigned at Wanguru law courts where he answered to charges of obtaining money by false pretenses.
