The locust invasion in Kenya which started in the North Eastern region is now making its way to more and more counties.

It is estimated that if not controlled, the swarms of locusts could grow by 500 times in June leading to famine.

American preacher Rick Wiles from Flowing Streams Church is now claiming that God sent the locusts to punish Kenya.

Speaking on Trunews, Pastor Wiles said that Kenya is one of the most corrupt countries in the world that he has ever visited and is now paying the price.

“I had sent well-drilling rigs to Kenya where they are dying of thirst, and I was trying to dig wells for them to give water to them.

At the port of Mombasa I was told I have to pay a Sh. 8M charity tax. It was sad.” he said.

The preacher shared that the very corrupt among the country are leaders and Christians who even go to church.

According to him, the locusts are meant to bring famine to force people into repentance.

“There are stages of judgement and Kenya has had drought. Now it’s going into famine.

God sends punishments in different ways. I am not surprised that there are locust swarms in Kenya right now.” he spoke.

The pastor also said that the coronavirus in China is a plague to the sinful nation for their “godless communist government that persecutes Christians and demands forced abortions.”

Wajinga Nyinyi hit-maker King Kaka sparked some overnight discussion after posting a plate of fried locusts on twitter.

The artist insinuated that he was having the meal for supper writing ” Odede Fry (fried locusts) , Managu na Ugali. Dinner is served.”

This post comes amid the North-eastern desert locust invasion that is also being experienced in Isiolo County and Meru County.

Since the desert locusts invaded North-eastern Kenya, the government has fought the invasion with shooting in the air (to scare the locusts) and using aerial sprays.

Reactions to the rapper’s post of the delicacy varied from shock to disgust to disbelief to sheer amusement.

“This government is wasting its resources by throwing teargas to such best meal ever…they should do away and apply the biological method (eating),” read one comment.

Another twitter user replied with “You eat that!!? Like I mean locusts! I can’t imagine myself eating them. Tell the government to stop wasting food.”

A comment expressing disgust at the post read ”King Kaka, you are spoiling my appetite please…hide some of these things.”

From the picture itself, I highly doubt that King Kaka prepared let alone ate the meal. He simply posted it to get people talking.

Back to the serious issue, the Government has deployed the Ministry of Agriculture to dispatch aircrafts to carry out aerial spraying.

The spread of the locusts from North- eastern region to Meru County comes as no surprise. Meru Jubilee Party chairman Joseph Muturia had predicted it.

In fact, 6 days ago, Mr. Muturia warned the government about their failure to contain the invasion and it’s possible spread.

In 1948, the locust invasion in Kenya led to a bad famine. If the locusts continue spreading to areas with cash crops, it will be a major disaster.
