“Another person yesterday gave me 500 bobs, I pray for his children and also his extended family. Mia tano? How do you expect them to do this with just 500?
Honestly how do you expect me to perform a miracle with 500. Nitawakumbuka namna gani sasa? Mia tano? Hakuna mafua ya gari ya mia tano. Io ni ibada gani? watu wa pikipiki. Io ni ibada gani sasa? Infact that five hundred fanya na waganga wa Nairobi”
refers to Kenyan pastors who demand a donation from their flock in exchange for sowing a seed that will eventually provide the answers to their prayers. When Pastor Kanyari asked his supporters to donate sh310 (also known as “kupanda mbegu”), the request quickly went viral. Nganga doesn’t stop criticizing that person.
“Those one of toa mbegu sijui tatu sijui ngapi”
Self-proclaimed Bishop Prophet Mwangi is the new name for Pastor Victor Kanyari. This change of heart came about as a result of him being exposed for tricking his followers into paying him Sh310 to work miracles.
Journalist John Allan Namu and Jicho Pevu reporter Mohammed Ali for KTN exposed him back in 2014. He was alleged to have changed contacts to avoid being discovered, used multiple identification cards, and fooled the unsuspecting faithful in the name of healing them while covertly being paid to perform’miracles’.
After a turbulent moment in their marriage, even his ex-wife Betty Bayo exposed him as a con. She has moved on since the divorce between the two.
