Pastor Mackenzie Denies Ties to New Kilifi Cult After Human Skulls Discovered
However, controversial preacher Paul Mackenzie, who is still in custody over earlier Shakahola deaths, has come out denying any involvement.
“I have no idea who is behind those skulls. This is not my doing. I’m being falsely accused again,” Mackenzie told reporters as he was escorted to court.
“It was terrifying. We heard voices, drums, and cries in the night. We feared something evil was happening,” said Monica Mwikali, a local farmer.
Authorities say they suspect the rise of a splinter group from Mackenzie’s former followers. They believe this new group could be conducting secret rituals. Yet, Mackenzie insists he knows nothing.

“People want to tarnish my name again. I served my time. I’ve repented. Let the truth come out,” he declared.
Meanwhile, Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki expressed frustration over the slow pace of justice.
“It is unacceptable that we are still discovering bodies while court cases drag on. We must act faster,” Kindiki said in a press briefing.
Forensic teams from Nairobi have been dispatched to analyze the remains and identify the victims. Preliminary reports suggest the bones belong to adults and children, mirroring past horrors in Shakahola.
“This is not over. There are still people out there brainwashing the vulnerable. We must stop them,” warned Kilifi Governor Gideon Mung’aro.
The public, once again, is in fear. Human rights groups are demanding answers and urgent action to prevent another mass tragedy.

“How many more must die before the government steps in properly?” asked Boniface Mwangi, a vocal activist.
Despite denying links, Mackenzie remains under tight surveillance. Many wonder: is history repeating itself, or is someone copying his terrifying blueprint.
