A woman died during Prophet David Owuor’s end-of-year crusade held on December 30, 2025, at Technology Farm in Nakuru, raising quiet but serious questions about how the incident was handled.
The event, widely known as the Menengai 8 meeting, attracted thousands of worshippers from different parts of the country. For many attendees, it was a time of prayer, reflection, and faith, with long hours and large crowds filling the open grounds.
According to a report by The Standard, the woman passed away while the crusade was still ongoing. What happened after her death has since drawn growing public attention.
Nakuru DCI officer Samuel Ngeiywa confirmed that the incident was not reported to the police at the time it occurred. He stated that the woman’s body was allegedly moved from the crusade venue to Egerton Funeral Home in Njoro without notifying law enforcement officers.
Because no formal report was filed by either the church leadership or the deceased’s family, the death did not immediately appear in official police records. This lack of documentation has raised concerns among observers.
As journalists began asking questions, another development followed. On December 31, the body was reportedly transferred from Nakuru to Luanda. Sources say this move came shortly after media inquiries increased.
Some members of the congregation have described the series of actions as a quiet effort to manage the situation away from public view. However, no official statement has been issued by the church to address the claims.
For many worshippers, the issue goes beyond accusations. It touches on responsibility, transparency, and how emergencies are handled during large religious gatherings.
Security officials note that the absence of an initial police report makes it difficult to establish clear facts or determine next steps.
As discussion around the incident continues, calls for openness and clear procedures are growing. For now, many questions remain unanswered.
