House of Clergy Bishop Elizabeth Thuiya has claimed that God revealed to her that the Azimio presidential candidate Raila Odinga is the next President of Kenya.
The Bishop spoke to the media on Friday, July 15, even as the House of Clergy Association endorsed the candidature of Raila and his running mate Martha Karua.
The association praised the former Prime Minister for his efforts in influencing the lift of the ban on the registration of churches in Kenya.
“God revealed to me that Raila is the next president of Kenya,” Bishop Thuiya said.

The endorsement of Raila by the association comes even as Kenya Kwanza presidential candidate William Ruto previously challenged the church to take a stand in politics.
Speaking during the Evangelical Alliance of Kenya National Convention 2022 in Nairobi on May 11, the Deputy President said that the church cannot continue to remain in a neutral place.
“The church must step forward in our politics. It can no longer afford to be neutral but place itself at the centre of our politics to fashion a conversation towards a Kenya We Want; an inclusive Kenya of equal opportunities for all,” Ruto said.
Meanwhile, a section of indigenous church leaders drawn from the Federation of Evangelical and Indigenous Churches of Kenya (FEICCK) endorsed the candidature of Ruto.
