Congolese Pastor Arrested Over Defamatory Preaching

Police is holding a Congolese pastor, Juvenal Kimanuka for accused of propagating divisive evangelism and defaming the government of Rwanda which he alleged is working with Evil.

Pastor Kimanuka is currently at Kamembe Police station helping the Police carry out investigations.

His arrest followed a tip off from residents that had gathered to listen to his evangelical message—the pastor later uttered statements that caused discomfort among the congregation.

Members of the congregation later alerted police which came and arrested him for further investigations.

Kimanuka told IGIHE that he came to Rwanda to sell his music and also engage in evangelism.

However, Kimanuka was not affiliated to any church in the area and was conducting his evangelical work just on the roadsides.

Asked about why he left his country Congo to preach in Rwanda, Kimanuka said he is a man of God who has no borders. He said he has been doing the same for a long time.
