There was chaos inside the church at Nairobi Central Seventh Day Adventist (SDA) on Saturday, July 20, 2019, after a faction of aggrieved members stormed the church to beat up the Head Pastor, Jean Pierre Maywa on the church’s altar.

The fight occurred when some senior members alongside the Pastor, gathered to discuss the fate of the faction known as Nairobi Cosmopolitan Conference (NCC), that wants to split from the church.

Prior to the fight, the Nairobi Cosmopolitan Conference (NCC) had lost a court case it instituted to challenge the church’s leadership.

The reconciliation meeting started off with shout matches and led to a fight few minutes after. In the video shared online, some congregants were spotted shouting while others took to the altar to defend the pastor from further assault.

The meeting was called off after the police stormed the church and restored order by using tear gas canister.

Here is a video from the scene below;
