pastor Kanyari pays woman who tattooed his political bid on her chest Ksh 10,000
Controversial preacher Victor Kanyari has once again sparked online debate after rewarding a woman with KSh10,000 for tattooing his 2027 political campaign slogan on her body.
In a video that has been widely shared across TikTok and Facebook, the woman is seen displaying a fresh tattoo linked to Kanyari’s reported parliamentary ambitions in Kasarani ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The tattoo read:
“Panga Kasarani Kanyari 2027.”
Kanyari appeared shocked after noticing that the tattoo was still fresh and painful.
“Hata iko na kidonda… haijapona?”
Moments later, he instructed someone nearby to reward the woman financially.

“Mpatie elfu kumi hapa tafadhali, mpatie 10K.”
Kanyari’s Political Ambitions
In recent months, Kanyari has intensified activities associated with his reported bid for the Kasarani parliamentary seat in 2027.
The preacher has frequently been seen visiting different wards within the constituency and interacting with residents during grassroots engagements.
He has also continued promoting the slogan “Panga Kasarani Kanyari 2027” through livestreams and videos shared on social media by both himself and his supporters.
During one of his recent visits, Kanyari emphasised the importance of leaders connecting directly with ordinary citizens.
“No shortcuts to leadership — lazima uvae viatu, uingie ground, usalimie watu na usikie shida zao live!”
Online Reactions Flood Social Media
The video quickly attracted reactions online, with some supporters praising the gesture as generosity while many others responded with humour and disbelief.
Several social media users focused on the relatively small amount of money given compared to the permanent nature of the tattoo.
One user commented:
“It’s the extreme you people are going for the money 🤑”
Another wrote:
“Only 10K? 😂😮”
A third reaction read:
“Desperation on another level.”
