Mutua joined a section of bishops who penned their condolences to the family of the late Allan Kiuna.
“From JCM CHURCH HQ’S to Rev Kathy Kiuna and the JCC family, it is well with you, this is a journey which we will all face, Bishop Allan Kiuna Has served God and harvested a lot for Jesus Christ and to the Kingdom of God.
“We will meet again on the beautiful shore. Rest well my brother, Rest in peace Bishop Allan Kiuna,” televangelist Muthee Kiengei of Jesus Compassion Ministry (JCM) wrote.
The cause of Kiuna’s death is yet to be confirmed, though reports claimed he succumbed after a long battle with Multiple Myeloma Cancer.
The family of the late Kiuna was yet to issue a statement on his demise by the time of publishing.
On December 10, 2023, Kiuna announced his victorious battle against cancer after spending a year in the United States for treatment. He shared the good news during a Thanksgiving ceremony at his Nairobi church.
Bishop Kiuna recounted his journey, revealing that he embarked on his US journey in December 2022 while already battling illness. Despite facing a challenging medical journey, he declared himself cancer-free, standing before his congregation with gratitude.
During the Thanksgiving ceremony, Bishop Kiuna disclosed that the cost of his treatment exceeded $3 million, totalling over Ksh459.9 million, emphasizing that the entire sum was divinely provided, and he did not have to dip into his own pockets.
“For the one year that I was in the US, my treatment cost $3 million, and I didn’t remove one coin from my pocket because the God of heaven provided. I did not call anyone,” he exclaimed amid cheers from the congregation.
Previously acknowledging his battle with cancer in 2019, Bishop Kiuna stood on the church’s altar to announce his complete recovery.
He spoke passionately about embracing the process, stating, “Don’t get bitter with the process. If you get bitter with the process, you shall abort your purpose. I am not bitter about the process because I am better. My best days are ahead of me.”
The celebration had a dual significance as Bishop Kiuna marked his 29th marriage anniversary and 57th birthday.
During the ceremony, his firstborn daughter, Vanessa, a lawyer, expressed gratitude for her father’s unwavering support and encouragement throughout her endeavours.
