Popular Kenyan forex trading duo Mordechai Nebz and his wife, Nyathira, are celebrating a major milestone in their relationship. The couple has officially marked eight years together.
This celebration comes during a challenging period for the pair, who recently made headlines after losing access to millions of shillings in their trading accounts.
A Promise of Lifelong Love
Mordechai took to social media to express his devotion to Nyathira as they hit the eight-year mark. In a heartfelt post, he shared a message in Swahili, vowing to remain by her side forever.
He told his followers that he finds it difficult to be away from his wife for even a single hour.
“I will love you until the day I die,” Mordechai wrote to Nyathira.
“Celebrating 8 years together and I can’t be 1 hour away from her,” he added.
The couple has built a significant brand around their relationship, often using the hashtag #nebzandnyathira to document their journey. Their public display of affection follows a series of professional setbacks that tested their resilience.The Sh4.3 Million Financial Blow
The anniversary follows a distressing incident on 5 May 2026, when the couple was locked out of their international trading accounts. Mordechai revealed that their accounts with the broker Pocket Option were suddenly blocked. The screen displayed a stark message: “Your account has been blocked for violation.”
This freeze resulted in the loss of over $40,000, which is more than 4.3 million Kenyan shillings. The broker reportedly cited “bnormal trading activity and the use of automated software as the reasons for the ban. Mordechai admitted he had noticed his win rate dropping significantly before the accounts were shut down.
“I didn’t want to give people false hope. I couldn’t show people I was winning when, deep down, the win rate had become terrible,” Mordechai explained then.
Despite the heavy loss, the couple revealed they narrowly avoided a much larger catastrophe. Just weeks before the freeze, Nyathira successfully withdrew 100,000 (approx. Sh10.8 million).
The pair had even hired professional videographers to film the large withdrawal, intending to share the success with their audience before the accounts were blocked.
The experience has since changed how the couple views the trading industry. Mordechai now warns his followers not to treat forex brokers like banks. He expressed regret for leavingso muchcapital in a vulnerable account instead of investing it elsewhere.
He also highlighted the risks of using international brokers that do not have a physical presence in Kenya.
