QUINCY TIMBERLAKE FREED AND ARRESTED AGAIN

Controversial member of the Finger of God Church Quincy Zuma Timberlake, was released from remand following a successful bail application before Chief Magistrate Gilbert Mutembei.
Now, aparently, two days after his release from remand on Tuesday, he was arrested by the Immigration officials in fresh investigation into his nationality.
Cyrus Ombati reports, "Timberlake was picked up from their Runda home and driven to Nyayo House, the Immigration Department headquarters, for questioning.
Members of the church who followed him there said the officials later drove out of Nyayo House with Timberlake to an unconfirmed destination."
In an affidavit filed by the investigating officer Alphonce Lumosi, Timberlake is suspected to be a foreigner holding a Kenyan identity illegally.

ESTHER CALLS FOR HUBBY QUINCY'S FREEDOM

The Esther Arunga - Joseph Hellon saga has taken a different tune.On Saturday, the two hosted a press conference at their Runda residence where they revealed the name of their political party and stipulated that without Quincy Timberlake’s freedom their grande plans may not come to be.
Esther called for the government to release her ‘husband’ on bond stressing that he is the think tank for their political campaign.
“All the plans are hinged on Quincy leaving prison,” she said. “We have plans to go to Hawaii in two weeks before going into launching our political campaign.”
Quincy who is being held at Industrial Area remand prison is facing charges of absconding court in a criminal case pending at Makadara law courts.
According to the two, CNN’s Larry King is scheduled to beam live from the Runda estate in June, which will offer the much-needed millage to promote their party manifesto. Esther is also planning on meeting former beauty queen and US Vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin later on in the year where they can have a sit down and talk about everything politics.
The ex-TV queen stressed, “Quincy is the mastermind, who has all the significant contacts from all over the world.”
In the same breath she warned all the ladies who are out to get her man. “Keep off, I have fought long and hard to be in this relationship.”
Hellon announced that the political party is called Placenta Party because Kenya is in “the gestation period”. He also stressed that the political party will introduce “terminologies never heard before” and he will be going by the political name Vendetta Supernova in addition to a political code name of Crab Nebula.
They also asked the government to provide them with security, as they are fearful that their lives could be in danger.

ESTHER ARUNGA MARRIES QUINCY AND SUES PARENTS FOR 300 MILLION

Yesterday, former TV news anchor Esther Arunga claimed that she got married to musician Quincy Timberlake – who is currently in police custody - on Wednesday (March 3) at a civil ceremony.
''I am so much in love with Quincy and that’s why I have officially married him, to stop the speculation,'' she told members of the fourth estate who had assembled at Jazz player Joseph Hellon home in Runda.
“I have a certificate of marriage, I’m now Esther Adongo Timberlake.” Esther said. “Just because someone is in jail doesn’t mean you can’t get married,” she said smiling coyly.
Quincy who is now facing charges of absconding court proceedings of a criminal case pending at Makadara law courts has a wife Salome Gideon with whom he has been married to for 11 years and have two sons together. Asked about this and whether she has just wed one of Quincy’s many aliases, Esther responded, “I can’t answer what if’s. That I will leave to you to investigate all I know is that I married Quincy Timberlake.”
Esther who was talking with a noticeable lisp narrated her ordeal after the February 21 arrest when police raided Hellon's house at 2am and arrested the two and other followers of the controversial Finger of God ministry International.
The saxophonist was being held at the Gigiri Police station while Esther was locked up at the Muthaiga police station until 3pm the following day, when she was moved to the CID headquarters on Kiambu road.
She was then released to Dr Frank Njenga custody on a psychiatric evaluation bond. Esther described her five-day experience as “harrowing”.
“I was interrogated and released to Dr Frank Njenga and I was found not medically insane,” she explained but was pained by Njenga’s decision to admit her in his hospital located in Msongari.
“I was heavily sedated, there was a time I wanted to escape and about five people had to hold me down, trap me and forcefully sedate me. That is the kind sedative given to mentally insane patients.
“Once I tried to escape by jumping over an electric fence, luckily they caught me before I could. I was then heavily sedated for two days I was almost comatose.”
Esther continued to explain that she was later transferred to another mental hospital in Chiromo where she was locked up and the only people who could visit where her family members only and she was not allowed the use of phones either.
She was later released to the care of the family, on Monday. But on Tuesday when the parents left her home alone with the domestic help, Esther saw the opportunity to make a clean break. With the help of a well wisher, she hitch hiked and was taken to her lawyer Harun Ndubi.
“I escaped and I don’t plan to go back (home), I’m a married woman now,” She said with finality.

Yesterday afternoon, with the help of Ndubi, Esther filled a restriction order against her parents Robert Okello Arunga and Petroline Amollo Arunga and the police.
“They cannot arrest me on the basis of where I worship and where I chose to live,” adding, “I’m planning to sue Dr Frank Njenga to the tune of 300 million for unlawful detention and sedation as well as other civil and criminal charges and unfortunately my parents too because they were working on their instruction.”
As a parting shot Esther responded to questions o if she is truly herself. “The way things are happening it is not a form of abnormality. The Esther you saw reading news is not the same one who is now running for office. The one you see now is the full on Esther.”
Meanwhile, the officer in charge of the Industrial remand Prison Pauline Wanja said there was no way the two could have been married in prison because weddings were not allowed in remand prison.
“Quincy is still here and to the best of my knowledge no wedding ceremony has taken place here. In any case such ceremonies are not allowed,” said Wanja.
Esther and Hellon have visited Quincy several times with the latest visit being yesterday.

MEET QUINCY TIMBERLAKE: THE ELUSIVE CHARACTER

IN my very first piece about the Esther-Hellon cult/con saga in The Star. I alluded to the fact that the two were smack in the middle of a con scam.
They were zealous pawns used by a guy who had read up on them big time and knew everything about them.
He knew Hellon was a big believer of miracles and has always considered Benny Hinn as a spiritual mentor.
On Sunday i meet up with a source who know where Quincy Timberlake lived and had been his buddy for a year or so.
My source said,"Quincy always looked at Esther on TV and said she is a chic he would like to get with. During Project Fame, when we were having our boy talks, he would root for Patricia.Like most Kenyan jamaas he had a thing for Esther."
I also found out that Quincy has a wife with whom she has two sons with. They have been together for 11 years.
It is therefore funny that an email from 'Benny Hinn' asked Hellon to break Esther's engagement months to their wedding with Wilson Malaba.
Anyho, the wife was super shaken when i broke the news to her that Esther was on TV saying she is dating Quincy.
“Quincy is my boyfriend," she said,"You learn to love imperfect people perfectly.“
Just so you know Quincy has many aliases, when he was in Kanda King's band he was a Congolese known as Dezato, with the late Krupt he was Fizzle Dogg now with Hellon and comapny he is Quincy Timberlake, (a.k.a Zuma Wambita) a half caste of a South African mum and Luo dad.

ESTHER ARUNGA ARRESTED FOR BELONGING TO ILLEGAL GROUP

Former TV queen Esther Arunga was on Sunday arrested alongside the church’s head pastor Joseph Hellon, Quincy Timberlake and eight other followers in a night raid at the Finger Of God home in Nairobi’s Runda estate.

Esther was held at the Muthaiga station with four others including two secondary school students. The others were held at the Gigiri police station.

They were arrested on allegations of belonging to an illegal group, but their lawyer Harun Ndubi said the church is registered. Police spokesman Eric Kiraithe said detectives were investigating “serious allegations.”

Esther’s parents turned up at the Muthaiga station but declined to speak to journalists.
