The rise of devil worship in Kenya

Incidents of devil worship are on the rise in Kenya, with members of the occult claiming that the recent cases of road accidents are their latest acts aimed at ‘harvesting blood.'

In one of the confessions aired by a local radio station, a confessed devil worshipper claimed she was being taken to the mortuary when she rose "from the dead."

The woman who "rose from the dead" had been taken to Mama Lucy Hospital where doctors confirmed she had died. She reportedly "resurrected" along the way as her mother was taking her to Kenyatta University Funeral Home.

"While I was presumed to be dead, I was at a location below the sea, where I saw several accidents taking place," she claims.

Last year, on the Naivasha-Nakuru road, students from Kajembe High School in Mombasa collapsed after they were allegedly attacked by evil spirits.


The students were on their way back to school after taking part in the national music festivals.

In June 2010, suspected serial killer Philip Onyancha claimed he had been inducted into devil worshipping while still a student at Kenyatta Mahiga High School in Nyeri.

In June, a parent of a standard eight pupil at a private school in Embu asked the Ministry of Education to intervene after her son was allegedly dismissed from the school over allegations of worshipping the devil.

In August 2011, at least 50 students from Moi Girls' High School Kamusinga were sent home for allegedly practising "lesbianism and devil worship."

One student confessed to having woken up with marks all over her body and a tattoo of a head of a snake.

Another devil worshipper used a divider from her geometric set and wrote the word ‘dragon' on her breasts.

She said her right hand side was known as ‘Felista' and left side, which belonged to the devil, is ‘Eminel.'

According to the confessions, the first step to being a devil worshipper entails becoming a member. Thereafter, one progresses to becoming a prince or princes, and then a priest. Priests have supernatural powers such as the ability to enter a matatu and disappearing.

Devil worship priests are said to possess a third eye that enables them to see things that are supernatural, like someone's future or details of one's bank account.

Devil worshippers use dolls, metal music, tattoos and push pins. Women are also given an owl or rat jewellery that is placed on top of breasts to tempt men.

In 1999, a presidential commission of inquiry concluded that devil worship was commonplace in Kenya with a high presence in schools, churches and even government offices.

According to the report, devil worshippers were obsessed with sex, especially lesbianism.

The Devil Worship Commission was established in October 20, 1994 and interviewed various organisations including the Freemason Society and the Mormons. Critics roundly derided the commission's findings and disparaged the damning report.

Devil worship is not a crime in Kenya. "Satanism is not forbidden by any law," the chairman of the commission, Archbishop Nicodemus Kirima, said when he released the findings of the report which have never been made public.

The Devil Worship Commission recommended the establishment of a special police force to investigate crimes of the occult said to practise ritual murder, human sacrifice, cannibalism and magic.

"I have no information why the special police force was not formed," the police spokesperson Zipporah Gatiria Mboroki told The Nairobian.

I drank blood from accident scenes, pastor claims

Did Samuel Mwema Muli, 47, kill more than 7,000 people from various parts of Kenya in less than ten years?

His outrageous satanic mission, the preacher at a city church claims, began one afternoon in 1992 when he killed his eight-month-old son, a heinous act that saw him part ways with his first wife.

Born in Roysambu, Nairobi, Muli, who spent three years in jail for mentioning the names of powerful people as devil worshippers, went to primary school in Mathare and secondary school in the city before studying journalism.

"After graduation, I was employed by a news agency in Nairobi where I overheard fellow scribes talk about devil worshipping. I did not believe the talk. But what attracted me to it was the money," Muli claims.One Thursday evening after work, Muli says he was walking outside the KPCU Building to his Majengo house when he stumbled upon a letter addressed to him.

"It was an invitation to cover a fundraising event for street children," he says."I met a shamba boy (name withheld) dressed in black. He welcomed me saying the chief guest expected at the event was a powerful cabinet minister," he claims.


Muli says at the entrance, the shamba boy stripped naked and took him to a woman who introduced herself as Francisca from Kiambu.

"She pulled a drawer, counted crispy Sh75,000 notes and handed them to me," he claims.

"When I arrived at about 5pm, I lied to my colleagues that I had hit a jackpot and invited them for drinks."Muli says he spent the cash in three days and decided to go back to the hall one more time.

"I met Francesca once more and she led me to another office where I saw three screens written ‘Kenya,' ‘Uganda,' and ‘South Africa,'" he claims.

Inside the hall hung TV screens. On one of the screens, Muli says, he saw the face of his 18-month-old first born son.

"Then a naked woman came, gave me a sharp razor, commanded me to cut the face of my son on the screen and gave me Sh85,000," Muli adds.

"Three days later, my son died mysteriously. His private parts and tongue were missing when we buried him."

Three months after the incident, he claims he was officially recruited as a member of the cult when the team leader took all his finger and toe prints.

Thereafter, he started earning Sh9,000 every Friday, more money than the agency paid. So he quit.With a steady flow of easy cash, he claims, he invested in the transport business and acquired a fleet of buses that operated between Nairobi-Kisumu and Eldoret-Nakuru-Nairobi. An enquiry by The Nairobian however revealed that the bus company he names is registered at the Kenya Revenue Authority under a different person.

Muli adds that in 1997, he sacrificed all the passengers aboard one of his buses near Kericho."I was behind the grisly road accidents between Naivasha and Nakuru. I could board a bus or matatu and alight before the crash," Muli claims.

"That period, I fed on women breasts and two glasses of human blood daily. By the time I quit, the cult had more than 500 followers in Nairobi. But all my wealth was taken by the cult when I quit."

In 1997, Muli claims he quit when an angel appeared to him at night.

"I woke up the following day at a church in Nairobi after falling nude from the ceiling and sending the faithful scampering for safety. The three women who remained covered my nudity," he claims."The police were called, but since there was no damage on the ceiling, they left."

Musyoki, one of Muli's cousins who lives in Salama, told The Nairobian that the preacher has not been in good terms with the family since he joined the cult, and has been somehow confused to date."The moment we learnt that he had joined devil worshipping, no one wanted to be associated with him. Even now that he is saved," he said.
