Opposition leaders have criticized President William Ruto for plans to build a church at State House, claiming it misuses public land and violates the constitutional separation of church and state.

• The church construction project is reportedly set to cost Sh1.2 billion.
• Key opposition figures like Rigathi Gachagua and Kalonzo Musyoka expressed concerns over prioritizing the church while neglecting the Kiambaa church ruins.
• Gachagua accused the government of targeting dissenting youth leaders with illegal arrests to suppress opposition voices.
