Early this week, Mercy Cherono was seen in a video having her demons exorcized in Nigeria by controversial Prophet TB Joshua at Nigeria’s Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN).

The pastor has in the past been linked with bizarre incidences including an occurrence in late November 2014 where three children and their mum were brutally murdered by their father/ husband Lawyer Paul Magu.

Magu is said to have visited the powerful pastor’s church before killing his family in cold blood and committing suicide by jumping in front of a moving bus along Thika Road. In fact, his passport showed that he had travelled to Nigeria more than 20 times to attend church services at SCOAN since he was a very devoted follower. Links which TB denied and claimed that Kenyans hated him.

Mercy just like other followers of the church attended it to solve some of their life problems. And for the Olympic Champion, her problem was she was suffering on the track and she had trouble in her marriage with Edmond Ng’etich.

4 months after their traditional wedding ceremony, the honeymoon period was over in a jiffy after fights between the two erupted constantly over their short-tempers and allegations that Edmond had fathered a child with another woman.

If the said prophet manages to solve their marriage problems and the two stick together, Mercy will become a politician's wife as Edmond has declared interest in the upcoming elections as an MCA using the Jubilee ticket.

"Today i received the blessings and the mantle from my classmate "KIPKELESEK" & the people from my ward to run for the seat of MCA KAPLELARTET WARD. Friends i need your support and prayers. Tuko pamoja.” He recently wrote.

Here is Edmond receiving his blessings accompanied by his wife:
