Prophet David Owuor has threatened to sue the Star newspaper over an exposé linking him to a multibillion-shilling property row with a bishop in his church. Through lawyer Okong'o Omogeni, Owuor yesterday wrote a letter to the Star, demanding that the paper apologises in seven days or face court action. Omogeni said the stories ridiculed and damaged the reputation and good standing of the prophet and the church in society. “This candid letter is to caution your publication to cease and desist from defaming and or making false publications concerning our clients,” he said. Last week, the Star published accounts of the family of Jayne Muthoni who accused the church and the prophet of brainwashing her and taking control of her vast property in Nairobi and elsewhere.
