Pastor kanyari blasts wayward Marion Naipei after she backslid

Kenyan preacher Victor Kanyari has once again sparked widespread online discussion after a dramatic and humorous church incident involving TikToker Marion Naipei went viral on social media.

The incident, which was captured during a church service and later circulated widely on TikTok and Facebook, showed congregants playfully confronting Naipei over the controversies frequently linking her to the preacher.

At one point during the lively exchange, a congregant jokingly told her:
“Utasababisha hata kiti ya Kasarani sitapata kwa sababu yako.”

Church service turns into a laughter-filled moment

In the viral clip, worshippers could be heard teasing Naipei as Kanyari appeared entertained by the unfolding banter.

Some congregants jokingly implied that the TikToker’s viral moments and public controversies could negatively affect the preacher’s image, especially amid his reported political ambitions.

The remarks triggered bursts of laughter across the congregation, with several church members continuing to throw sarcastic comments in Naipei’s direction.

Social media reacts

Following the circulation of the video online, Kenyans quickly flooded comment sections with jokes, memes, and mixed reactions.

Many social media users remarked that the church service resembled a comedy show more than a traditional worship session. While some sympathised with Naipei, others mocked both her and Kanyari over the incident.
