Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has told off those criticising church leaders for their 'frequent' visits to State House.
Speaking on Sunday, Gachagua said that the critics should learn to live with it.
He insisted that church leaders will continue visiting President William Ruto's official residence and that of the deputy president in Karen, because it is the right thing to do.
"I want to tell those who are complaining that church people are visiting State House, they should live with it. The people of God, anointed men and women of God will continue visiting State House, they will continue visiting my official residence in Karen," Gachagua said.
"We will continue going to church every Sunday, we will continue doing harambees for churches, we will continue doing the work of God because we are God's people and it's the right thing to do."
The deputy president stated that he and President Ruto are devout Christians and they have no apologies to make for conducting prayers at State House.
Gachagua said those who are not happy with the church associating with the presidency should leave them alone.
The DP also defended the move to have the church cleanse State House saying that this will help them start on a clean slate.
He added that the cleansing by the church will also happen in Sagana State Lodge where a lot of bribery was conducted in the run up to the August 9 General election.
"And we ask those critics to go and do their own things where they want and leave us alone. It was also important for the church of Christ to come to state house and purify the place so that we can start on a good slate."
Gachagua noted that the presidency will not only work with Christian church leaders but also all religions.
"William Ruto has built madrasas and mosques, we will engage with Muslims and Hindus. We are saying we will engage with all faiths and that is the way to do things," he said.
There has been criticism that Kenya is a secular nation and the move by President William Ruto to host a church service at State House sent the wrong picture.
Critics argued that other faiths would feel left out by the country's leadership.
