His Holiness Pope Leo XIV has appointed Rt. Rev. Dominic Kimengich, Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Eldoret, as the Coadjutor Archbishop of the Catholic Archdiocese of Mombasa. The appointment was officially announced on 28 January 2026, marking a significant pastoral transition for one of Kenya’s metropolitan sees.

As Coadjutor Arcbishop, he will assist the Archbishop of Mombasa in the pastoral governance of the Archdiocese and, in accordance with canon law, holds the right of succession upon the vacancy of the metropolitan see. This appointment ensures continuity of leadership and strengthens the Church’s pastoral mission along the Kenyan Coast.

BREAKING NEWS

APPOINTMENT OF BISHOP JOSEPH MALUKI MWONGELA AS THE COADJUTOR BISHOP OF THE CATHOLIC DIOCESE OF MACHAKOS

Pope Leo XIV appoints Bishop Joseph Mwongela, presently the Bishop of Kitui, to be the Coadjutor Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Machakos.

WHAT DOES THIS IMPLY?

When an ordained bishop is appointed Coadjutor Bishop of another diocese it means that he is assigned to assist the current diocesan bishop while also being formally designated as his automatic successor.

Unlike an Auxiliary Bishop, a Coadjutor has the guaranteed right of succession, so when the diocesan bishop either retires, resigns, or dies, the coadjutor immediately becomes the new diocesan bishop without any further appointment.

This role is typically used to ensure continuity of leadership, especially when a transition is anticipated due to age, health, or the pastoral needs of the diocese, and the coadjutor is usually given substantial responsibilities to prepare him for full governance.

Usually Catholic bishops are typically requested to submit their resignation to the Pope when they reach the age of 75.

The current Bishop of Machakos is Rt. Rev. Norman King'oo Wambua and was born in 1952.
