An unapologetic Archbishop Jackson Ole Sapit, of the  Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK), said Monday that he will hold bishops accountable should they allow politicians to address congregants at the pulpit going forward.

This followed his move on Sunday to deny politicians attending the consecration of an ACK Bishop in Butere, Kakamega County, the opportunity to address the church function.
