Catholic Church Suspends Rapping Kenyan Priest

Church officials have taken issue with Father Charles Ogalo's style of preaching and suspended him for a year to 'reconsider his manner of preaching'. Ogalo liked entertaining his congregation with rap music, which he said he uses to urge the youth to abandon the "evil deeds of the world and turn to Christ".
