Pastor Kanyari Denies Neglecting His Kids with Former Wife Betty Bayo, Says He Spends Sh450,000 on Their Fees
Controversial pastor Victor Kanyari has refuted claims of neglecting his children with his former wife, singer Betty Bayo.
In an interview with a local FM station last year, Bayo claimed that Kanyari contributes little to the welfare of their children following their divorce.
The gospel musician said the clergyman evades responsibility despite leading a flashy lifestyle featuring expensive houses and luxury cars.
“We are neither enemies nor friends, but we coordinate where it is possible. He is a stingy man who only provides little for his children,” she said.
“Don’t think he is that man you wake up and ask him for everything. He helps kidogo but I believe as a woman you are not supposed to depend fully on men, so I provide for them. With an attitude like mine, unaumia coz not all men can provide without being reminded.”
In a recent interview with Mpasho, Kanyari denied the claims, stating that he supports the kids and has taken them to one of the best schools.
The televangelist also says that Bayo mainly provides food while he foots the rest of the bills.
“I take care of my children and pay. She only provides for food which we also help each other sometimes. It costs me Sh450,000 every term because they are in one of the best schools,” says Kanyari.
The two separated in 2015 after Kanyari was exposed by an investigative journalist for conning innocent Kenyans and performing fake miracles.
“I don’t miss Kanyari. I am so occupied with life and I even don’t follow up on what he does. I am enjoying the freedom of being single. Every marriage has issues. There are those you can stand but others you can’t. It is every woman’s dream to have a family, but I learnt that it is good to never cover up for the wrong things just because of love. If it is not working, walk out. Don’t die because of what people will say after you walk out," said Bayo.
“I wish there was something I would have done to save the marriage, but I tried my best. All my kids are his but everyone has a right to say what they want. You can’t be affected if you know your truth.”

Naomba tafadhali Kanyari aitwe "Tapeli/Jambazi Kanyari. Ikiwa kuwa "pastor" ni kufanya mambo mabaya mengi ambayo Tapeli Kanyari amefanya, basi, yaonekana dhahiri (evident) ya kwamba ukristo ni dini ya utapeli na pia ujambazi.

@Shake my head:
Baada ya kutikisa kichwa chako, nakuomba uchunguze dini hizi mbili za kigeni (kikristo na kiislamu) bila kutumia hisia (emotions) kama ulivyofanya na utaona ya kwamba wafuasi kondoo wa dini hizi mbili ndio wamefanya na pia wanaendelea kufanya uhalifu katika duniani nzima. Ndio mafundi wa ujambazi na pia utapeli.
Wafuasi wa dini ya kiislamu:
Baada ya Mwana Aisha (Mohammed) kufa, dini hii ilienezwa kwa upanga mpaka ikafika Afrika ya Kaskazini, na Magharibi. Waarabu walikwenda Yuropa katika nchi ya Uspania (Spain). Walikuwa huko kwa muda wa miaka 700! Walisafiri Bara la Asia ya Mashariki na kuwafanya wafuasi kondoo wa nchi hiyo kuwa waislamu. Kuna wafuasi wa dini hii katika nchi ya Indonesia kuliko nchi yote duniani. Walikuja pia katika nchi za Afrika ya Mashariki na kuwauza Wafrika kama watumwa na hata sasa wangali wakifanya hivyo. Wana ubaguzi mbaya sana wa rangi na pia jinsia.
Wafuasi wa dini ya kikristo:
Baada ya mkuu wa kanisa la katoliki(pope) kutoa amri Wafrika wauzwe, Wareno (Portuguese) ndio walikuwa Wanayuropa wa kwanza kumwuuza Mwafrika mwaka wa 1441. Wanayuropa wakristo wengine walijiunga kwenye biashara ya kuwanunua na kuwauza Waafrika mpaka Yuropa ikatajirika sana
Wakristo kutoka Yuropa walinyakua grab) nchi ya watu karibu dunia nzima. Pia, walihusika kwenye shughuli za kuwaua wenyeji wa nchi walizokuwa wamenyakua.
Walinyakua Greenland, Canada, Marekani, Mexico, nchi zote za Marekani ya Kati na za Kusini. Nchi zote zilizo kwenye visiwa vya Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand, nchi nyingi za bara la Afrika na Asia pamoja na visiwa vyote vilivyomo katika bahari ya Pacific.
Ndio sababu mimi huwaita waumini wa dini hizi mbili matapeli na pia majambazi. Matatizo tuliyonayo Kenya ya ufisadi tulifundishwa na wakristo Waingereza. wakristo wa kutoka Yuropa wana ubaguzi mbaya sana wa rangi. Kwa nini? Hawamtambui MWUMBAJI MKUU ambaye ndiye msingi wa vitu vyote vilivyo hai na visivyo hai ulimwenguni mzima (Universe).
Tofauti kubwa sana baina ya dini hizi mbili za kigeni ni upande wa kuombaomba pesa unofanywa na viongozi wa makanisa ya kikristo kutoka kwa wananchi maskini. waislamu hawana tabia ya kuombaomba pesa barabarani na kupayukapayuka ovyo kama wakristo. Mimi si mwislamu au mkristo; lakini dini ya kikristo imejaa matapeli wengi sana kama tapeli Kanyari, Owuor na wengine wengi duniani nzima.
Kwa nini hawasomi biblia vizuri na kumwomba mwana Mariamu awape pesa kutoka mbinguni kuliko kuwasumbuasumbua watu na uombaji wa pesa usio na mwisho?
Hebu tazama Matayo (Matthew) 7: 7-8. Mwana Mariamu (yesu ) alisema:
Matthew 7:7-8 King James Version (KJV)
7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Watu waache kuwapa matapeli hawa wakristo pesa.

I am not worried about Betty Bayo, who I think did the right thing. Biblical? I am not sure I have to consult my guardian angel. My biggest concern is for the congregation. Are they deaf, numb and dumb?

@Brain: Mimi sifuati dini ya mababu zangu! Inaonekana kuwa wewe huelewi lugha ya taifa ya Kiswahili!
Mimi nimesema mara nyingi ya kwamba sipendi dini hizi mbili (ukristo na Uislamu) kwa sababu ziliwauza Wafrika utumwani na mpaka sasa wafuasi wa dini hizi (Wanayuropa na Waarabu) wangali wakiwasumbua watu wa asili ya Afrika kwa ubaguzi wa rangi na pia hawadhamini jambo lolote la Mwafrika.
Mimi sina matatizo na dini nyingine zote duniani kwa sababu zinaheshimu asili ya watu wengine na pia mila zao.
Nakuomba ujifunze Kiswahili tena ili uweze kuelewa mambo ninayosema.
Nakutakia kila la kheri.
