The High Court in Nakuru has dismissed a Sh20 million claim by a senior Seventh Day Adventist (SDA) pastor dismissed for allegedly practising polygamy. The church told Justice James Rika that the SDA church stands for monogamy and God created Eve, not Eves. On August 28, 2023, Pastor Samuel Ngugi of SDA Nakuru was dismissed; the church found out he was cohabiting with another woman who was not his wife, and having a child with her.
