Sky Victor, the daughter of the late gospel singer Betty Bayo, has lost access to her TikTok account, which had attracted more than 1.4 million followers, in a major setback for the young social media personality.
The account became inaccessible on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, with a check by this writer showing that the profile no longer displayed Sky’s name, videos or other identifying information.
Instead, visitors were met with a blank profile page displaying no account name or content, alongside the follower count and zero likes, an indication that the account had been deactivated.
Her account had also undergone a recent name change, moving from Sky V to This Is Sky, in a rebranding move that preceded the latest development.
TikToker Kiguru, who shared an update about the account, cautioned social media users against confusing a deactivated account with one that had been banned by TikTok.
Addressing the distinction, he explained that the platform had not necessarily taken down Sky’s account, suggesting that the deactivation could have been initiated by someone with access to it.
“Na millennial mjue difference ya deactivated na banned,” Kiguru said.
He went on to explain that the account had not been removed by TikTok and suggested that its disappearance could have been connected to a person who had access to its management.
“There is something you need to understand, account ya Sky haijatolewa na TikTok. Ni mtu amedeactivate, maybe ni ule manager tuliambiwa,” he stated.
Kiguru further explained that the account could become accessible again if the person who deactivated it decided to restore it within the applicable 24-hour period.
“But inaweza rudi after 24 hours if they want to return it back. Bado haijatolewa na TikTok,” he added.
Sky’s social media controversy
Sky became a subject of national discussion following the death of her mother, Betty Bayo, with her online activities drawing attention from Kenyans concerned about her welfare and the emotional challenges she was facing.
The teenager had previously shared emotional videos on TikTok and other social media platforms, expressing her feelings about the custody arrangements involving her and her younger brother.
The Milimani Law Courts had awarded full custody of the two children to their biological father, Pastor Victor Kanyari, following their mother’s death.
However, Sky publicly expressed her preference to remain with her stepfather, sparking further discussion about her living arrangements and the circumstances surrounding the custody decision.
The matter eventually attracted the attention of Suba North MP Millie Odhiambo, who raised concerns in Parliament on November 4, 2026, about the exposure of minors to social media and the need to protect children experiencing difficult family circumstances.
Although the legislator did not explicitly mention Sky by name, her remarks were understood to refer to the teenager and the emotional videos circulating online.
Odhiambo, a child rights advocate, called for intervention by the Children’s Department, arguing that children going through difficult circumstances needed appropriate emotional support and protection.
She also urged Parliament to consider measures addressing children’s use of social media, particularly the risks of cyberbullying and public scrutiny faced by minors whose personal experiences become widely accessible online.
