Millicent Omanga Draws Mixed Reactions After Pastor's Remarks

Millicent Omanga has stirred controversy online after a pastor praised her during a church service, making comments about her appearance that some found humorous while others deemed inappropriate.

The pastor referred to Omanga as 'wonderfully and fearfully made by God' before adding, 'Mheshimiwa, si ukitembea network inapotea,' which translates to a light-hearted remark about her figure. This comment has sparked a debate among netizens about the appropriateness of discussing a woman's physique from the pulpit, with many arguing that such remarks are unnecessary in a church setting.

Omanga is a former nominated senator and a recent aspirant for the Nairobi Woman Representative position. She has recently made headlines for her political shift, joining the Democratic Congress Party (DCP) led by Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua after leaving the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) in March 2026, as reported by The Standard.

Her recent political activities include a public appearance dancing with Pastor Dorcas Gachagua, which showcased her alignment with the DCP's leadership. However, her political journey has not been without challenges; in May 2026, she lost her position as a board member of Kenya Shipyards Limited following her departure from UDA, according to Nairobileo. Additionally, she has been vocal on social issues, recently sharing a heartfelt letter from a schoolgirl urging police to cease violence during protests.
