Popular pastor Victor Kanyari has once again found himself at the center of public conversation after making surprisingly candid remarks about his co‑parenting arrangement, leaving many Kenyans both shocked and impressed. Speaking openly about his relationship with his children and their mother, Kanyari shared a perspective that many described as unexpectedly mature.
According to Kanyari, his children enjoy a close relationship with both their biological father and their stepfather. “Watoto wangu wanampenda baba yao mlezi na pia wanapenda sana baba yao mzazi. Hawa watoto wanakaa estates tajiri sana na wanajua kwangu hata usiku wanaeza kuja… it’s just a phone call away,” he said, highlighting the strong bond he maintains with his children despite not living with them full‑time.
He further explained that he and his former partner, Tash, have developed a smooth and respectful co‑parenting routine. “Wakati Tash ataenda U.K nitakaa nao, akirudi anakaa nao — and that’s how mature men behave,” he added, stressing the importance of stability, communication, and mutual respect in raising children.
Kanyari’s remarks have stirred conversation online, especially among Kenyans who are used to seeing public disputes between separated couples. Many were surprised by his openness, while others praised him for promoting a healthier narrative around blended families and responsible fatherhood.
Observers say his comments could help normalize cooperative parenting in a society where conflicts between ex‑partners often overshadow children’s wellbeing. Social media reactions reflect a mix of admiration, curiosity, and skepticism — but most agree that Kanyari’s message underscores an important truth: putting children first requires maturity, dignity, and emotional discipline.
As the discussion continues, Kanyari’s statement stands out as a rare, public example of co‑parenting handled with level‑headedness and respect, offering a different perspective on modern family dynamics in Kenya.
