Kanyari responds to claims of being at war with Tash after Betty Bayo’s death
Prophet Kanyari says there is no conflict between him and Tash, the husband of his late ex-wife, Betty Bayo.
In a video posted on social media on Friday, November 28, 2025, he says he has shown respect to the man and has not interfered with anything, even as people online push for tension.

Kanyari explained that he has kept his distance because he understands Tash is mourning, and he does not want to add any pressure during this difficult time.
He said, “Nampea heshima pale alikua ameolewa, napea heshima huyo mzee ambaye alikua na yeye. Hakuna mahali nilimuingilia. Hakuna mahali nimepigana nay eye, sijakimbizana nay eye kuhusu watoto.”
Keeping peace during the mourning period
Kanyari said he has allowed Tash the time he needs to mourn before any discussions can happen.
He stated, “Namruhusu kwanza a mourn. Halafu nitampigia simu aniambie what next.” He insisted that he does not want to create any fight, even though some people online seem to expect conflict.
“Sitaki kuanza vita na nguvu kama vile social media wanataka tuanze vita na nguvu. I don’t want to fight that man. Kwa sababu alikua mke wake, najua ana mourn. So, that is why I am not reacting,” he said.
He added that he has seen situations where people fight over a woman, but he does not want to go down that road. According to him, this period should be calm, and any decisions should come naturally when the right time arrives. Kanyari said everything will work itself out, but for now, peace is the most important thing. He said the children have already gone through enough since the departure of their mother, and creating unnecessary problems will only make things worse.
“Everything will fall into place when the right time comes… but for now, let’s maintain peace and tranquillity, let’s not spice up any war for the sake of the kids, they’ve seen and heard enough all since the departure of their mum, let’s let them rest,” he said. Kanyari insisted that his focus is on peace and respect as the family continues to handle the loss.
