A cultural group in Kiambu seeking to return the Kikuyu community to its traditions has caught the attention of security officers and the church. Gwata Ndai Cultural Association operates in Kiambu county and is spreading to neighbouring areas. Though Gwata Ndai officials have denied the group is a cult, the Kiambu county commissioner has said the group's activities are being investigated. Wanyanga said he had confided in Kiama Kia Ma elders, who are known promoters of Kikuyu cultural values, and they confirmed that the meetings held by the Gwata Ndai group do not conform with the Kikuyu culture. The leaders said they first attend church before convening cultural meetings, and they do not discourage members from attending church.
