A viral video featuring Jeremiah Kioko, a preacher associated with the Jesus Is Coming Deliverance and Healing Ministry Church, has generated widespread attention on social media, triggering strong reactions. In the clip, Kioko confidently claims to possess a divine gift from God, allowing him to communicate with animals.
In the trending video, Kioko boldly declares, “God has given me a gift to speak to animals. Don’t joke.” He goes on to assert his ability to communicate not only with animals but also with humans, asking provocatively, “If I am speaking to a hen, what about a human being?”
These bold proclamations have not been met without skepticism and criticism from viewers, who question the authenticity of Kioko’s claims. Despite the preacher’s challenges for skeptics to provide animals for him to communicate with, doubts persist regarding the legitimacy of his alleged ability.
The widespread circulation of the video has reignited discussions about the regulation of religious institutions. Some individuals are advocating for government intervention to ensure accountability and prevent potential exploitation within such organizations.
Kenyan citizens have expressed their opinions on the matter, with Paulline Njoroge questioning the sanity of those attending the church and condemning what she perceives as cruelty to animals. Another individual, Okamu, suggests that such sensational acts are indicative of churches prioritizing business and attracting followers for financial gain, expressing hope that God will eventually expose those who mislead people.
Commenter Abdi, on the other hand, describes these pastors as “damn creative” and accuses them of doing anything to attract more followers. He dismisses the act of pressing a cock’s neck to produce sounds as a mere display of creativity rather than a genuine divine miracle.
