A Migori-based lawyer has threatened to seek court redress in barring Rongo Sub County Deputy Commissioner George Matundura from barring members of Melkio Joseph Mission Messiah Church from returning to their place of worship.
Advocate Benard Acholla on Tuesday said it is unfair for the deputy county commissioner to bar the 57 members from accessing the church premises on mere suspicion.
Speaking to members of the press, the Mr Acholla said, "The church has existed since the 1970s.
For some, it's the only place they've ever known, where does he expect them to go?" The lawyer said the belongings of the said members were still inside the church. "I was expecting a better decision from the commissioner regarding the 57 members, but I consider his action unilateral and based only on allegations.
