In an exclusive interview with Waumini Communications Limited at the Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB) General Secretariat, Archbishop Okoth, who is also the Chairman of the Catholic Justice and Peace Commission said time has now come when all Kenyans must make a fundamental choice to treat their neighbours with dignity.
Archbishop Okoth said the insecurity and wanton killings currently being experienced in Kenya have been perpetuated by the urge to seek material things in order to ‘quieten the perpetrators human needs.’
He called on the rich people to support the needy. “Please be generous, help each other, and pay school fees for the poor children.” said the Archbishop adding that “God only created two people, male and female, and these were created with dignity.”
He condemned the excessive force and storming of a Mosque in Mombasa on 2nd February 2014 where a police officer and two Islamic militants were killed following an assault on the controversial Masjid Musa Mosque as reported in the local media.
“No one has the right to take away the life of another person,” he said.
