Controversial Kenyan Televangelist Gilbert Deya to Wed Lover Who is 50 Years Younger than Him
Controversial Kenyan televangelist Gilbert Deya has revealed plans to remarry following his divorce with former wife Mary Deya.
In an interview with Radio Jambo, Pastor Deya said he is dating a Kenyan woman who is 50 years younger and plans to marry her soon.
The father of seven said his former wife decided to divorce him following his extradition from the United Kingdom, a decision he accepted.
“We’re divorced. It’s my wife who has divorced me and I’m accepting her decision and have no problem,” said Deya, who was extradited from the UK to Kenya in 2017 to face child theft charges.
Deya also revealed that he was dating another woman while he was living in the UK and had introduced her to the church. They, however, parted ways before he was extradited.
“People should know Deya is a divorcee now and I don’t have a wife but I will re-marry. When I was in the United Kingdom, where I stayed for 15 years, I had a romantic relationship with another woman because I had lust every time I saw women walking in the streets and by that time, my ex-wife was back home."
"I even introduced the woman to church but when I wanted to go back to Kenya, trouble started because of her demands, She didn’t want me to go back until I had married her and because of that we broke up. She even lied that I raped her,” he divulged.
Deya said he will be marrying a 27-year-old woman, whom he said he met after his former wife divorced him.
“I then decided to get another woman here in Kenya and as you know here in Kenyan women are like groundnuts (many) even the government allows one to have even 50."
I’ve already engaged someone because I don’t want to be a sinner again. I don’t want to be single again so that mwanamke akipita naangalia matako yake. Wanaume macho yao inawatesa, hata kama umeokoka macho hayaokoki,” Deya added.
He said the wedding ceremony will take place at the Intercontinental Hotel in Nairobi.
Last week, Deya told The Standard that he cheated on his wife while in the UK to avoid getting prostate cancer.
The televangelist is facing five counts of child theft, where he is accused of stealing children aged 14 and below between 2002 and 2004 at Mountain View Estate in Nairobi.
In May last year, Deya was released from Kamiti maximum prison on a cash bail of Sh10 million or a bond of a similar amount.
In 2008, his former wife, Mary was charged and later convicted with 10 counts of similar offenses and was handed a three-year jail sentence.
Deya maintains he is innocent and blames his former wife over the miracle babies saga.
“I have never been part of the miracle baby saga. My wife was in Nairobi, I was in London. She told me that he had miracle babies. I wasn’t there to see or prove if it’s true,” Deya told the Standard.
“She even got pregnant and delivered a baby when I was in London. She cheated on me. How can I be responsible for something that happened in Kenya when I was in the UK."

Kwa Kifupi, "mkristo, mnafiki, (hypocrite) tapeli, fisi" Deya, anataka kumwoa binti yake.
Najua mila si za dunia nzima ni za watu walio na asili moja. Kulingana na mila za "taifa dogo" la asili yangu (micronation), ikiwa kwa umri/miaka, unaweza kuwa baba au mama wa mtu, wewe ni kama baba au mama yake. Kwa hiyo, huwezi kumuoa mtoto wako. Pili, mtoto wako wa kiume au wa kike akishazaa mtoto, wewe kama mzazi wake (baba au mama), huwezi tena kuzaa mtoto mwingine.
Kwa hiyo, "mkristo, fisi, tapeli, jambazi" Deya, anamwoa binti yake! Lakini kwa vile yeye hatoki kwenye taifa dogo langu, anaweza kufanya jambo lolote kwa sababu anafuata mila za Wanayuropa zinazosema, mtu akitimiza umri wa miaka 18, yeye sasa ni mtu mzima na huwezi kumwambia jambo lolote la kufanya!

If you are a follower of this hypocrite, please,as of today denounce your following...In stead of praying to ward off temptation, he goes around lusting after women.Now he is talking of possibility if 50 of them.His mind seems to be always in the gutter.Does he really read the bible...
Now with your donations, he has charmed an impressionable girl enough to be his daughter.Isn't this shameful?
If he is a man of God why can't he dedicate the rest of his life serving Him?.Like the pope.
Surely if my pastor acted and talked the way this man does,I would wonder if its him or the God he prays to.Iwould find my own way in the wilderness .His lust drove him to this youthful body .But you will hear him say it was God's plan.God's plan to punish this young girl...?It would be God's plan if he reunited with his wife,and if not possible to go for awoman his age.

I don't think Deya meant to say he Himself wanted to Marry more than 1 Wife. I think He was simply Alluding to the "Legality of Polygamy in Kenya and the Abundance of Single Women in Kenya (kama Njugu)".
Nb: A Pastor wanting to have having More than 1 Wife is a Pastor wanting More than enough Burden; and more unnecessary Stress.

He is Simply confessing his Sin/Fault. For the BIBLE says in JAMES 5:16 that:
16. Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.

Hypocritical Christians are Notoriously hell-bent on trying to buy God's blessings through Pastors. And Deya loved/loves their desperate Notoriety of Paying him.

Anyway Deya is 82 yrs if it's True that:
"He was born in the morning of 2 February 1937 in Juja, Kiambu to Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Oyanda Deya (who were Sisal plantations workers from Bondo working in Juja) outside of Nairobi and was the eleventh child in a family of fifteen children. He belongs to Luo tribe, and his name "Juma" means Sunday, which is the day he was born."

You must be the Maragoli Houstonian man whose ex-wife said you were Gay; for she came to know you better for the 3-4 years you were "married". Your Gay days are numbered with that Mkundu sex of yours; HIV/AIDS is knocking as you continue Pakaring MAFI to Sherri, Penny, and other Stupid women out there. You will go 6 feet just like you late Dad went. And unless you REPENT: the Curse will continue even to your Current and Future generation.🙏

Kuna wimbo ulioimbwa miaka mingi iliyopita ambao ulisema, "...mwanamke hachungiki, hujichunga yeye mwenyewe..." Nakumabia ndugu yangu, wimbo huu ungali wa kweli mpaka sasa. Mwanamke akitaka kupata mapenzi ya nje, huna jambo lolote ambalo unaloweza kulifanya asifanye anayokusudia na mwanamume mwingine. Pole sana Kaka!
Ni lazima upate mwanamke aliye na msimamo wa kujiheshimu kwanza, na pili kukuheshimu ili mtu akiwa na fikira za kumnyemelea (hunt) na kumla kama chakula cha asubuhi, mchana, jioni, au usiku hapati nafasi yoyote.

It is not that in Kenya women are like groundnuts but rather the system is flawed whereby you can assault impregnate and even kill a pregnant woman and nothing happens to you.Hope the young thing you plan to marry takes you to the cleaners not that you have anything to offer her
