Pastor Ng’ang’a of Neno Evangelism Center has opened up about his strained relationship with his son, who is battling alcoholism. Speaking during a church service, the controversial televangelist revealed that he has blocked his son and explained why he chose to distance himself from him.
Ng’ang’a said his son has become disruptive and dangerous when drunk. He recalled a recent incident where his son came home, caused chaos, and even threatened the house staff with a knife.
The pastor, known for his blunt honesty, said he was forced to beat him up.
“I have a son who drinks a lot. I told him he’s not even a proper drunkard yet, he’s just playing,” Ng’ang’a said.
“I blocked him. He came the other day, I beat him up. I heard he took a P3 for me. Now, what is P3?”
He added that he could not tolerate such behavior in his home.
“I never disturbed my mother. I will not allow my child to attack women working in my house or walk around with a knife. If you are a prisoner, go finish your term in prison.”
Pastor Ng’ang’a on his Children’s Inheritance
Pastor Ng’ang’a, who once said he disappointed hundreds of women by getting married, also made it clear that he will not hand out his wealth to his children without them proving themselves. He said that even if he gives them property freely, others would still come to claim it because they did not earn it.
“You have to pay the price. Even if I give it to you freely, others will fight you for it. From today, teach yourself how to pay the price.”
This is not the first time the pastor has shared his views on parenting. In the past, he said he would kick out his daughters if they got pregnant while still living under his roof. He believes in raising disciplined children who take responsibility for their actions.
His honest and tough-love approach sparked mixed reactions online. Some people praised him for being real and bold enough to speak openly about family struggles. Others, however, felt he was being too harsh.
Ng’ang’a’s story has reminded many that even men of God face personal battles. Despite his past, including time in prison, he said salvation changed his life. And now, he wants his children to learn that every blessing comes with sacrifice.
“I fought spiritual battles to become who I am. My children must also fight to earn their place.”
