A popular pastor in Naivasha has been arrested by police on allegations of sexually abusing his 14 year old daughter.

This came following claims that it was not the first time the cleric had been involved in the illicit affair with his elder daughter years back.

Following the incident, the teenager has been rescued and is currently residing at the Naivasha safe house undergoing counselling.

A witness said that this is not the first time that the 45-year-old suspect had been involved in such kind of incidents.

According to one witness, “The cleric was involved in a similar scandal with one of his daughters before she was rescued by authorities.”

Naivasha sub-county children officer John Chege confirmed the arrest adding that investigations were still going on.

Speaking on Thursday, Chege said that the minor was deeply traumatized adding she was in safe hands after the harrowing ordeal that lasted for over two years.

“The minor claims that she was subjected to her father's abuse for over two years and we have handed over the suspect to the police for action,” he said.
