After several Months of Court battles over who should be nominated by the Search Committee to vie for the Bishop post for Diocese of Mt Kenya Central, the Church has now a new Bishop Elect Ben Timothy Gicere
The milestone step that had proven to be an uphill task has been achieved after the two main Contestants Ven Wilson Burugu and Ven John Miano stepped down in favour of Ven Gichere.
It took the intervention of Arc Bishop Rev Jackson Ole Sapit who requested that the case that had been taken to Court be withdrawn to pave way for dialogue and Consultation.
Adressing the congregation, Burugu and Miano said that their decision was not because of intimidation neither was it because of A Memorandum of Understanding.
In his acceptance speech the new Bishop Elect Ven Timothy Gicere, has affirmed that he was equal to the task citing that he would work closely with the Church to spread the gospel
He termed the Court litigations that had derailed the process as baseless.
