Bishop Johanna, whose controversial actions made headlines earlier this year, has passed away.

The cleric, born Danson Gichuhi, died on Thursday night after a prolonged illness. He was receiving treatment at Nakuru Level Five Hospital when he passed away.

Bishop Johanna gained notoriety when a video of him using anointing oil on a woman’s bosom went viral.

The footage, which depicted him applying the oil during a deliverance session, sparked significant controversy and mixed reactions online.

Many viewers were disturbed by his actions, which they perceived as inappropriate, with some condemning it as “sexual assault” disguised as spiritual healing.

In the video, the late cleric was captured applying anointing oil on a woman who was allegedly possessed; he touched the breasts, the belly and proceeded to her Kapedo which attracted outrage.

In an interview conducted by Nation journalist, his wife, Mary Wanjiku, confirmed his death, stating, “The man you enjoyed covering about is no more. He died on Thursday night while receiving treatment.”

Beyond the scandal, Bishop Johanna was also known for his fervent support of Arsenal Football Club. His death marks the end of a controversial chapter in his life, which had drawn both criticism and attention.

As his passing is mourned, reflections on his life and the impact of his actions continue to provoke debate.
