Woman accuses James Wanjohi of conning her of KSh 150k

Recently, an elderly woman accused pastor Wanjohi of defrauding her.

She said she acquired a loan to pay for her orphaned grandchild's job processing.

The preacher founded Worthstart Africa Agency, a firm helping Kenyans get job opportunities overseas.

Anyone seeking help from the agency would pay between KSh 100,000 and KSh 150,000 as requisite fees.

The aggrieved woman revealed to Citizen TV that she paid KSh 140,000 at first and later topped KSh 10,000, all to help her kin get employment in Canada.
