In a statement shared on her official Facebook page on Tuesday, September 3, 2024, Nyamu who was nominated to represent women in the Senate revealed that she has been asked to stand with Pritty Vishy in the spat between her and Bishop Kiengei.
According to Nyamu, the bishop’s statements were blown out of proportion, adding that he did nothing wrong since he is a comedian.
“It has come to my attention this morning via a comment on my Facebook, asking me to stand with the girl child in the spat by Pritty Vishy and Bishop Kiengei. I know Bishop is a comedian and he also shoots straight and can go overboard. But get his point. He wants Vishy to actually pick a hustle or something to be known about and not just her association with Simple Boy. If she can get that fact she can improve herself,” Karen said.
She further stated that even though the Bishop had publically apologised, she was certain that Pritty would not accept it.
“As for the way he said it I see he has apologised. No need to go into it. On the other hand, Vishy will never apologise to me lol, though me ata sinanga noma,” she added.
Taking advantage of the saga, the vocal lawmaker narrated how she was insulted by the content creator sometime back in a viral video posted by a blogger adding that she (Pritty) is crying because of lighter statements made about her.
She further stated that she was disappointed since she had a soft spot for the vlogger.
“So sometime back, I see notifications on Instagram that Pritty Vishy has mentioned me. I was curious because I liked her. Wueh, kalikua kamenitusi kweli kweli kwa video posted by a blogger. Na nikaskia kidogo disappointed that the love wasn’t mutual,” she narrated.
“Today she’s crying because of lighter statements made about her. Yes, I said lighter.”
Bishop Kiengei has faced online backlash after his video about Vishy went viral with many calling him out stating that his utterances go against the teachings of love and acceptance that he preaches.
Others claimed that it was wrong of him to body shame and make fun of her appearance since we are all made in the image of God.
Bishop Ben said that he has admitted his wrongdoings adding that he went overboard with his expensive utterance.
Additionally, the man of cloth asked Pritty to forgive him and that she is welcome to join his church.
“Pritty Vishy I am really sorry and I take this moment to highly apologise for mentioning your name in a show where I went overboard and mentioned you in the wrong way. Get a space in your heart to forgive me for addressing you in the wrong way,” he apologized.
“This will never happen in future, I take it as my mistake. Pole my sister na karibu sana JCM Church kanisa la watu wote.“
Pritty Vishy has however declined the bishop’s apology stating that she wants it done the same way he made the disrespectful comments.
“When you widely opened your mouth to abusē me did you send your assistant ama ni yeye alikuandikia line? If you wanna talk to me talk to me directly, and before that I don’t want a written apology. I want a video, the same way you sat down and made that disrespectful video, do the same on the apology…don’t send pēoplē to me kwani walikusaidia kucheka?” she said.
