Pastor Ng’ang’a’s big mouth lands him in trouble with Esther Passaris
Controversial preacher Apostle James Ng’ang’a of Neno Evangelism Ministry has once again stirred national debate after a video clip allegedly showing him making disturbing remarks went viral online.
The undated footage, widely circulated across social media, appears to capture Pastor Ng’ang’a making what seems to be a shocking confession during a church service — a revelation that has triggered outrage and calls for investigation.
The Alleged Confession
In the video, Ng’ang’a is reportedly heard recounting a disturbing act from his past, claiming he was among an eight-member gang that assaulted a woman many years ago.
His alleged words were direct and unsettling:
“We assaulted one woman while we were eight people. We did it.”
The clip quickly went viral, with many Kenyans expressing anger and disbelief. However, the authenticity of the video has not yet been independently verified, raising questions about whether it could have been digitally manipulated.
Passaris Demands DCI Investigation
Among those who publicly reacted to the viral clip was Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris, who on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, called for the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to probe the matter.
Acknowledging the possibility of AI-generated or edited content, Passaris nonetheless insisted that such a serious claim must be investigated.
“In this era of AI-generated and manipulated videos, I don’t know if the clip is genuine or a deep fake; but one thing remains—it MUST be investigated,” she posted on X.
She added that if the footage is verified as authentic, the alleged confession would amount to a criminal admission, not a sermon, and authorities should take immediate action.
“If that video is real, then it is not a sermon—it is a criminal confession. It should have been flagged instantly, and the pastor picked up for questioning by the authorities.”
Call for Accountability and Justice
Passaris went further to challenge Pastor Ng’ang’a to surrender himself to police if the confession is indeed genuine, and to reveal the identities of his alleged accomplices to ensure justice for the survivor.
“As a man of God, if the pastor did make that confession, he should surrender himself to the police, name the eight others involved, and help deliver justice for the survivor,” she stated.
The legislator also expressed deep concern for the victim referenced in the alleged confession, questioning her current well-being and life after the reported ordeal.
“I keep wondering where the woman is today. How has her life been since that ordeal?” Passaris wrote, adding prayers for the survivor and all victims of sexual violence.
