Pastor Kanyari’s dramatic dump of Marion Naipei hit social media hard after the controversial preacher accused the young woman of vanishing with a million shillings he handed her for safekeeping. Victor Kanyari, head of Salvation Healing Ministry, spilled the details in a raw post that’s got everyone from churchgoers to gossip pages buzzing.
He claimed he supported Marion big time – covering her rent, buying clothes and shopping, even sending 100,000 shillings monthly to her mom. But the last straw came when he gave her 1 million to deposit in his account. She took off, switched off her phone, and left him fuming.
Kanyari didn’t mince words. “Marion Naipei namlipia rent na shopping. Nguo namnunulia na mamake namtumia 100,000 shillings kila mwezi,” he wrote, laying out how he looked after her.
Then the bombshell: “Juzi nilimtuma nikampa 1M shillings akaniwekee kwa bank account yangu na akatoroka na pesa zangu na simu amezima.”
He wrapped it with a stinging line: “Kweli paka ya msituni ni ya msituni, rudi msituni nimechoka na wewe.” Translation? A wild cat belongs in the wild – go back there, I’m tired of you.
This fallout comes quick after Kanyari played the hero in Marion’s life. Just weeks ago, he stepped in when her drunken club videos went viral, showing her dancing loose and causing a storm online.
He welcomed her to his church, gifted cash, preached about turning lives around, and even talked about guiding her path. Congregants saw her at services, looking reformed. But now, it’s all soured. Kanyari says she’s “untransformable,” and he’s done trying.
Marion, in her early 20s, hasn’t responded yet. Her phone stays off, according to Kanyari, and she’s gone quiet online. Friends say she’s laying low after the rough ride from those leaked clips.
Back then, a sponsor reportedly cut her off, leaving rent unpaid and doors locked. Kanyari swooped in as savior, but this twist flips the script – now he’s the one claiming betrayal.
Kanyari’s no stranger to headlines. This Marion saga fits his pattern – big gestures, then public callouts when things go south.
Online, reactions split sharp. Some side with Kanyari: “He helped her, and this is thanks?” Others question why give such cash casually. Memes fly about “wild cats” and bank runs. Church folks pray for peace, while gossip accounts milk the drama for views.
In estates around Nairobi, people chat about it over breakfast. “Pastors and drama,” one boda rider laughed. A salon lady nearby shook her head: “That girl needs real help, not this back-and-forth.” It touches on trust in relationships, especially uneven ones with money and power.
This Kanyari-Marion mess shows how fast things flip in the spotlight. One day redemption story, next day accusations. Fans watch for her side, but silence speaks loud too. In Kenya’s mix of faith and gossip, stories like this keep feeds full.
Kanyari moves on preaching, Marion stays out of sight. Whatever truth lies in between, it’s another chapter in lives played out online.
