I was on Facebook just doing what everyone else normally does on Facebook when i came across complaints by members of LDS(Latter Day Saints) in Kenya having serious concerns about the way the church is being run by its leaders.The following are the exact comments by the members and their concerns.They are completely not my opinions or my concerns and so i am not liable or accountable for these comments or concerns.
"Ever wondered why the Church of LDS isn't growing in Kenya? Simple, it's about we we against them them....idolatry, worship of money, adultery, corruption, witchcraft, name worship and other kinds of evil worship. Imagine in the Church corruption thriving to the extent where a toner sold for 3k is sold to the Church for 41K using sacred funds. In the Church corruption fights back whether be land, jobs or tenders. One stake after those many years, question the leadership. ...we are headed nowhere and I am bold on this statement, nowhere. ....I will give you updates on this evil rocking the Church in Kenya. Infact don't bother applying for any jobs there, it's based on names and personalities rather than spiritual,experience, expertise and education".
"Well done........,Evil prevails when good people keep quiet. The corruption and preferential treatment in the LDS church is nothing new,I discovered it a long time ago and that is why I never applied,wanted or showed interest in anything the church has to offer financially including PEF. I,ll pray to God and work my butt off".
"I was shocked to hear that some guy was given a tender to maintain the lawns in Eldoret and Kitale. It got me wondering those members in this areas can't maintain their own lawns, why someone who doesn't even know where this buildings are situated? I am still puzzled!!!"
"So these things are truly happening. When ......... mentioned some of them I thought he was joking. This is the moment my natural instincts is likely to say, " mind your own business" but seriously I think its important that someone listens to what you are saying. It will indeed be futile efforts to preach the gospel of oneness when what is going on, on the ground is so divisive".
"Its all over for most of this churches Bro. But find the man with the Jar( reservoir) and he will show you the upper room,Luke 22: 10-12".
The church in most parts of Africa is its own worst enemy, it is crippled by its own history and as much as there are a few people who are honestly and sincerely involved in good works in the church, for most part Hypocrisy and the need to say the right things while doing the wrong and the dominance of the chosen few has frustrated alot of young men with potential in the church. Speaking from personal experiences, I can openly say that the church is full of hypocrisy that we hope will go away by saying 'the church is true', well the church is the people and not the LDS organization, if the people are corrupt and heartless,then the church is.
This is exactly what killed the church in Nigeria, temple closed, missionary work messed up because of a few people who cared more for themselves than the people they lead. The church also at some point in Japan was closed for almost a year because members fought for leadership. I pray same thing doesn't happen in Kenya. I wish every leader took the example of how the leaders lead the church in south Africa.
Tell them this corruption will mess the church and spirituality of members nowadays i only see people going to church just to showoff themselves...i wonder where the rain started beating...
Despite all this , I know the church to be true and I know Jesus Christ leads it. God will take Care of any evil that come to his church just like in the past. I hope no one here will leave the church or be inactive, be strong and try to think positive. No one is perfect lets pray that the church will be strong and that we can learn from our mistakes and be strong.

"I take this opportunity to thank you all for sharing with me your experiences, some have been extremely heart rending and thus the spirit to deal with this menace once and expose all manner of wickedness has come alive. Time has come when we can no longer linger hoping this expose will go away. We cannot afford to wish this away or sweep it under the carpet. The moment has come for all of us to be involved in breaking down that barrier of the "specials" and ranks of "VIPs" After all this is....."
