Controversial activist Boniface Mwangi has told off Kenyans against blaming God or satan for poor leadership being witnessed in the country.
The Activist, who appeared on NTV on Tuesday evening, said Kenyans have developed a penchant for blaming their woes on satan and at the same time praying to God for good leadership, which according to him is wrong.
Mwangi says Kenyans should blame the leaders they elect for their sufferings instead of praying to God or cursing satan.
He stated that the massive plundering of government resources in the country should not be linked to satan whatsoever adding that the leaders they put in office should shoulder the blame.

"There is this thing I hear that God elect or selects leaders. God has no voters card. God will never elect anyone in Kenya. Listen, the devil has never voted, the devil is not a registered voter and neither is God. The devil does not steal anything in this country. The devil has nothing to be blamed for in this country," he said.
He added: "When you go to vote, you don't find God on the queue, nor devil, or angels. In any case, when this country is messed up, don't pray about it; the devil has nothing to do with it. Don't even pray to God. God did not vote for these people. You voted these people so when you see that person messing say we voted that person. So the devil we need to be scared of is the devil that you elect".
His remarks come at a time when the country is facing numerous cases of corruption.
Many leaders who have been campaigning for the presidential seat in the country have cited corruption as their first challenge to deal with in the event they are elected into office.
Reports indicate that corruption gobbles up a huge portion of the government funds that could be used to implement development projects worth billions.
In an interview with Kikuyu radio stations in January 2021, President Uhuru Kenyatta admitted to Sh2 billion being lost daily to corruption, which translates to Sh700 billion a year.
The revelations proved that corruption remains the elephant in the room as far as leadership challenges are concerned considering the amount is half of the total revenue collected by the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA).
