The Bishop of Catholic Diocese of Nyahururu Joseph Mbatia has urged members of the public to stop speculating about the demise of Igwamiti Catholic Parish priest as they wait for conclusion of the ongoing investigation.

Bishop Mbatia who was presiding over the funeral service of the late Fr John Maina Ndegwa said so far the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) has not concluded what led to the death of the priest; however, he noted the Diocese is hoping for conclusion of the investigations to find out those who were involved and the motive behind the killing as soon as possible.

The Bishop called upon the public to be patient as the DCI and the Homicide unit carry out the investigation to conclusion.

The late Fr Maina was eulogized as a dedicated and diligent servant of God who was always ready to go out of his way to give a helping hand to everyone in need.
