Pastor Victor Kanyari has publicly called on the public and media to respect the privacy of his children, Sky and Danny, amid the ongoing grief and family tussle following the death of their mother, renowned gospel artist Betty Bayo.<\/p>\n
Speaking through a post on his Facebook account on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, Kanyari urged that all public discussions and speculation surrounding his children be reframed with their mental and emotional well-being as the top priority.<\/p>\n
The pastor stressed that protecting his children\u2019s health is paramount, stating firmly that no online debate, trending story, or rumor should be allowed to overshadow their welfare.<\/p>\n
Kanyari highlighted the immense challenges of navigating grief and parenting while under intense public scrutiny. He acknowledged the criticism and judgment he has consistently faced online but emphasized that public opinion should not dictate the care he provides to his children.<\/p>\n
\u201cGod\u2019s opinion is greater than public opinion,\u201d Kanyari stated, underscoring his focus on faith and parental responsibility rather than engaging with social media chatter.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
He appealed to his followers and the media to exercise grace and understanding during this difficult period by refraining from sensationalizing his family matters.<\/p>\n
Guiding Through Loss<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Reflecting on his role as a father, Kanyari emphasized that guiding his children through the loss of their mother requires immense patience, compassion, and focused guidance. He took a moment to thank those who have offered quiet support and prayers for his family.<\/p>\n
He concluded by reiterating that his unwavering focus remains on raising Sky and Danny with dignity and love, committed to shielding them from the distractions and pressures of public scrutiny during their time of mourning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
