Pastor Kanyari and Tash reunite while picking kids from JKIA after weeks in the UK

Betty Bayo’s ex-husband, Salvation Healing Ministries preacher Pastor Victor Kanyari, has reunited with her widower, Hiram Gitau, popularly known as Tash, as they picked up their children from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
The reunion came after the children spent a month in the UK, on a trip organised by Hiram and the late gospel singer’s close friend, Shiru Stuart, who resides in the UK.
In a video shared on Kanyari’s Facebook page on Sunday, January 11, 2026, he is seen looking joyful to be reunited with his children. He held his daughter Sky by the shoulders and even assisted her in carrying one of her bags as they moved to pose for photos at a section of the sprawling airport.
In the same video, Betty’s widower, Tash, is also seen in high spirits as he embraced Betty’s son, Danny, and composed himself to join in the family photo being taken at the airport.
While sharing the video, Kanyari used Israel Mbonyi’s hit song “Utupe Nguvu Baba”, which speaks of seeking strength amid grief, leaving his fans sending him comforting messages.
Fun-filled trip
If a video shared by Shiru Stuart on Facebook on Monday, January 5, 2026, is anything to go by, the kids had a time of their lives abroad.
In the Facebook update, Shiru revealed that the movie’s shooting was happening inside her house and lamented how the children had transformed the house into something resembling a theatre.
“For the past few weeks, my house has been like an acting theatre for these kids,” she wrote.
Shiru then shared a teaser of the movie they are producing, describing it as very interesting.

She added that the movie would premiere on Betty Bayo’s daughter, Sky Victor’s, YouTube channel and encouraged fans to subscribe so they do not miss it.
“They’re creating something amazing that you’ll all enjoy watching! Keep subscribing to the Sky Victor 254 YouTube channel,” she wrote.
Behind-the-scenes teaser
While sharing the update, Shiru also posted a video showing the children during filming, revealing behind-the-scenes moments of them rehearsing lines and performing multiple takes before achieving the perfect shots.
From the lines they were reciting, the movie centres on a family divided over getting a dog as a pet, with parents and children presenting alternating views on why the pet is necessary.
In one scene, Shiru’s elder son, Maina, who takes on the role of a parent, is heard listing ways a dog would benefit the family and engaging in a debate with Betty’s son, Danny, who plays the child and presents reasons why a pet may not be required.
The acting continues to a scene where Betty’s daughter, Sky, intervenes, seemingly in the role of the mother, delivering her lines on whether a pet is necessary in a comedic manner.
