Word on the ground is that Embakasi East MP Babu Owino is going to be a dad again. The outspoken legislator is married to Fridah Muthoni Ongili, and together they have two children, a boy aged seven and a girl aged two.
But Babu has just confirmed that the family is expecting a third baby. This is according to The Standard, who had an exclusive interview with the outspoken politician.
“Yes, I have three children; a boy aged seven, a girl aged two and another one is on the way. ” Babu said.
When asked about how being a father feels like, this is what the former SONU President had to say.
“Being a father is the best thing that has ever happened to me! Nothing can compare to that feeling. And it remains the most important job I have. My family always comes first before anything else.”
Babu and Fridah met close to seven years ago when both of them were students at the University of Nairobi. According to the legislator, his wife who studied economics is very intelligent.
“I met my special lady at the University. She was an economics student. She is a very intelligent and capable individual. So I guess you could say similar comrades attract.”
The first time parliamentarian also revealed that his public life is very different from his private life.
“People who see me in public imagine that I take the same attitude home, but the truth is I leave politics at the door when I get home and my wife takes charge. Even when we disagree it never goes overboard because in marriage you can either choose to be right, or choose to be happy. “
