The pastor told the young man never to wear the t-shirt again, claiming that it is for divorcees.
The Kilifi-based preacher argued that the t-shirt has some spirit that can block or break marriage.
“Never wear this cloth again. Anybody who wears this t-shirt won’t marry or get married. It is for divorced people only. Don’t buy that cloth wherever you find it being sold. I know business people will be upset with me, but there is no cloth that doesn’t have a meaning,” Pastor Odero said.
He explained that all clothes have spiritual significance and influence the wearer’s destiny.
He cited former president Uhuru Kenyatta as an example of someone who changed his dressing style after becoming the nation's leader.
“Every cloth has a spirit that makes you attracted to it. Remember before Uhuru Kenyatta became president he was wearing any outfit, but when he became the president, he was told to wear dark blue suits and a red tie. That red tie means leadership,” he said.

Why did pastor warn men against ladies who oversleep?
Previously, the preacher advised men to avoid marrying women who love to sleep.
In a video captured during a service in his church, the preacher claimed that a good wife should be the first one to rise in the morning and attend to the needs of her husband and children.
He said that a man who finds his wife still in bed when he wakes up has made a poor choice of a partner.
