Lawyer Ambrose Rachier has denied claims that people join Freemason to gain wealth and become powerful in society.
The Gor Mahia chairman who joined Freemasonry in 1994 had a candid interview with NTV’s Duncan Khaemba, where he revealed that the major aim of people joining the secret organization is to propagate charity.
According to him, most members of Freemasonry in the country as well as other parts of the world are simple and ordinary people.
“We join freemasonry to propagate charity. There are a few wealthy people in freemasonry, and there are those people who live ordinary lives like me. I am not a wealthy person and I am not a powerful person. In fact, most of the people there are just simple Kenyans,” Rachier said adding that,
“Some of them are businessmen, some are medical practitioners, and lawyers, and there is no discrimination as to what kind of person you are. What I can say is that there are few politicians, if I remember. I don’t think we have any politicians. Some of them are judges of our courts. The common denominator is not wealth, it is charitable practices.”
Speaking about the issue of human sacrifices, the lawyer said that it is a myth which he also heard of before but he has never witnessed during the 28 years that he has been in the organization. He noted that all his children are alive.
“There is nothing like that, and masonry is universally practiced, which is an amazing thing. If you go to a lounge in India, you will see the same things we practice here in Nairobi. I want to thank God for this. All my children are alive. I have lost no siblings or child, and they are known. I have a son who is 43 years old and practices law with me in my firm here. I have other children, and I have suffered no death.
“ In my family, I have only lost both my parents, and last year, courtesy of Covid-19, I lost my brother who was 60 years old.So there is not even the slightest link to any kind of human sacrifice. This is a myth, and it does not happen anywhere that I know myself, and it does not happen in East Africa,” he said.
He however declined to speak about rituals they conduct, urging the journalist to join Freemasonry and witness that for himself.
