“Jesus Came For Sinners”-Pastor Kanyari Gifts Ksh 50,000 To Woman In Viral Stripping Video
In a surprising turn of events, controversial preacher Pastor Victor Kanyari has stepped forward to offer financial and emotional support to a woman currently at the center of a viral stripping scandal. During a service at his Salvation Healing Ministry on Wednesday, January 21, 2026, the preacher gifted the woman Ksh50,000, framing the gesture as an act of Christian compassion.
A Sanctuary from Public Judgment
As the woman stood before the congregation, Kanyari addressed the intense public backlash she has faced. He emphasized that the church should serve as a refuge for those marginalized by society.
“When the world is against you, churches should be there for you, for we all know that Jesus came for the sinners,” Kanyari stated while handing over the cash.
He urged the woman to ignore public condemnation and promised to walk with her through her recovery, adding, “The journey has just started.”
Empathy for a Single Mother
Kanyari revealed that he was moved to tears by the woman’s personal story, noting that she is a single mother of one struggling to make ends meet. He challenged the congregation to view her with empathy rather than vitriol.
“This girl has trended everywhere, but I understand her,” Kanyari explained. “She is a single mother of one; what do you want her to do?”
In a symbolic gesture of honor, Kanyari invited the woman to sit in his personal pastoral chair and asked the church to applaud her. “Sit down there in my chair. Everyone clap for her,” he commanded, reminding his followers that “standing with the vulnerable ensures that God stands with you.”
Reflections on His Own “310” Scandal
The preacher also drew parallels between the woman’s current plight and his own history of public disgrace. Referring to the infamous “Potash/Ksh310” investigative exposé that nearly ended his career years ago, Kanyari noted that he knows exactly what it feels like to be the target of national ridicule.
“I remembered my own day of the 310 scandal,” he remarked, suggesting that his past experiences have given him a unique perspective on public shaming and the need for a second chance.
By the end of the session, Kanyari declared that the woman would “never be down again,” promising that this financial boost and his ongoing support would mark a definitive turning point in her life.
