Business as usual at Victor Kanyari’s church amid tight security

Embattled Salvation Healing Ministry preacher Victor Kanyari went on with service at his church in the city amid tight security by hired men. The service at Cross Road in Nyamakima area went on as usual but those who went in had to be vetted and screened by a group of youths who stood on the staircase heading to fourth floor of the church.

The youth chased away journalists who tried to venture into the church saying they were spoilers. "These are journalists and should not be allowed in. Where are you going?" one of them shouted before the journalists faked saying they were going to an electronic shop on the second floor. And in fear of being harmed, the journalists left the place

In the meantime, shouts of praises and music emanated from the church as the other worshippers went on with their businesses. The development came in the wake of investigations that have been launched into claims of fraud.

 For only Sh310, the pastor, who is now on every Kenyan's lips, promised to cure all manner of diseases including HIV and Aids, find jobs for the unemployed, and paraded different people who had allegedly benefited from his miracles.
