Kiambu Woman Storms Catholic Church to Stop Husband’s Wedding to Another Lady
- There was drama at the St Francis of Assisi Limuru church when an enraged woman stormed the premises as her husband got married to another woman
- Mama Steve alleged that attempts to follow up on the matter with the priests were met with a lot of rudeness, and she was eventually chased away
- The woman cried in pain, and it was a strange scenario because such marriages are not allowed in the Catholic church, but at that point, she didn't seem like she had recourse

“This is not fair. I have tried to see the priest and church officials, but they always chase me away,” she claimed, visibly shaken.
Mama Steve only heard the rumours of the union from people, and she claimed that her husband didn't let her know that she would be having another co-wife.
The Catholic church, which strictly does not recognise polygamy, has remained silent so far, even as the incident causes online uproar.
“If this wedding goes on, where does that leave me? Am I now useless? Is this the God I pray to? A God who lets my marriage end in church?” asked the defeated woman.
Despite her pleas, the wedding reportedly went on as planned inside the church, with a Catholic priest officiating the ceremony.
Kenyans online are now demanding an official statement from the church, with many asking why the concerns of the first wife were seemingly ignored.
