Why I Married a Young Girl After Death of My First Wife- Pastor James Ng’ang’a of Neno Evangelism
Controversial Pastor James Ng’ang’a of Neno Evangelism Centre has divulged why he married a ‘very’ young woman following the death of his first wife.
In a recent interview with Radio Jambo, Pastor Ng’ang’a says he settled on a young girl who is half his age because he wanted someone he would enjoy life with and one to look after him once he grows old.
“Unajua kwa nini nikaoa mke mdogo, kwa sababu nikiwa mzee atanisaidia labda nisimeze dawa za presssure mbili ama tatu,” said Ng’ang’a.
Ng’ang’a said he faced opposition from members of his church who did not want him to marry Mercy Murugi, who was a university student at the time. He said Murugi is the daughter to one of his congregants.
“So nikampenda kukawa na vita kubwa sana ya watu wakisema ninaoa msichana mdogo kuliko mimi, basi mimi nakajiita kamkutano, nikataka kuoa wengine ambao sitawataja kwa sababu wengine ni waheshimwa lakini nikaangalia nikaona mileage yake nikienda kumaliza kule tutakua tunakunywa dawa za pressure wote wawili, nikaona nioe mke mdogo,” he said.
“Mama yake alikuwa mshirika wangu, sasa nikamjulia hapo, alikua shule anasoma degree Nairobi.”
He said Mercy was later incited by some church members to separate with him but the two reunited after some time.
The two exchanged marriage vows in a lavish wedding ceremony held at Windsor Gold Club in Nairobi in 2012.
A few months ago, a video of Ng’ang’a admonishing his Bishops for allegedly disrespecting his wife went viral on social media.
In the recent interview, Ng’ang’a explained that the Bishops refused to attend meetings convened by his wife.
“Akiitana mkutano hao pastors wakubwa wanasema hawawezi kukuja mkutano wa watoto. Ni mke mdogo lakini ni lazima apewe respect. Ni madharau,” he said.

Enjoy life to the max pastor.
Hata paka mzee huyua maziwa...
Why couldnt he dedicate the rest of his life "married to the church",?Awife that young will just be adistraction
And when you get old you will be aburden to her.Aburden whose magnitute she could not forsee in her youth .But if it works, good for you.
Nowaday age gaps that large come with problems
Mostly due to lack of experience in life for the younger spouse.Ican imagine her missing out on what her age mate are doing.She might even start resenting "the old man".
Ng'ang'a kweli wewe una bahati kama mtende. Unaoa mtoto kidosho sio kwa sababu ya 'pressure" lakini ukwale na timizo lako la kimwili. Mimi huwa natatizika kwa maneno yanayotoka kinywani mwako ambayo ni haitarajiwi itoke kwa mchungaji. Matumizi ya maneno kama vile "amemaliza mileage," "nikajiita kamkutano," "tutakunywa dawa za pressure...," ni lugha ya wahuni wa mitaani, mahabusu wa jela na sio kiongozi mchungaji asiyejua anachokijua. Jaribu tafuta mtu wa kukuandikia maneno utakayoongea hadharani. Ama sivyo, damu ya mwanamke aliyekuwa mke, mama ya watoto, mtoto wa watu, dada na shangazi ya wengi, uliosababisha kifo chake kitaendelea kukuandama na adhabu zake. Wakati ndio muamuzi.
Most polygamous men when they get old go back to their first wives. The reason being that their first wives will be their age mate and will enjoy each other company more than being with slay queen.
He has made way too many assumptions for his own good. His explanation lacks wisdom but I hope all turns out well for him.
She will leave you for a younger dude once you become a burden.As someone previously commented mwanamke au mwanaume si Kamba unafunga na kuweka kwa nyumba.Most marriages nowadays are for richer and for better forget the poorer or worse part.Sleigh kings will join your union soon
labish
Hizi ndio tunaitanga mambo private. Shida za watu wawili wanalala ndani ya bedsheet moja yatuhusu nini jamani? It's not like he cheated on his wife? Wakenya jamani na ku scrutinize maisha za watu
Inatuhusu kwa sababu ametutangazia. You make such remarks in public expect scrutiny- that is why!
FG2, a treat for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDEhQ47wfpI I was hopping mad when I watched. This man is definitely insane! Just check how he insults a 48 old woman and chastises one of his followers for turning up late whilst salivating over a curvaceous young woman! Ajabu!
