A Christian fellowship on Saturday gifted new Kitui Catholic Bishop Rev Joseph Mwongela Sh6.5 million Land Cruiser vehicle during his coronation following his appointment on March 17.
He was given the car keys by Mr Charles Mulila, the chairman of Kitui Christians, who merged money to purchase the car, at St Charles Lwanga School, Kitui.
The service, led by the Pope's representative in Kenya Archbishop Hurbertus Van Megen, was testified by His Eminence John Cardinal Njue and Mwongela’s predecessor Archbishop Antony Muheria.
President Uhuru Kenyatta sent a congratulatory message through Devolution CS Eugene Wamalwa. In attendance were governors Charity Ngilu (Kitui), Alfred Mutua (Machakos) and Kivutha Kibwana (Makueni).
