Esther Wahome on qualities of an ideal son-in-law

• Esther Wahome said she wants a man who would treasure her daughter.

Legendary gospel singer and former Miss Universe Kenya Esther Wahome is a proud mum to her children.

Speaking to Bonga Na Jalas, the Kuna Dawa hitmaker spoke about different topics, among them her family and music career.

She mentioned her cute actress daughter Michelle.

Michelle is talented in different ways. She is pursuing Journalism at the USIU.

Speaking about her ideal son-in-law, Esther Wahome said she wants a man who would treasure her daughter.

"Because she is well brought up, I pray that she would look at the values the man has. I would want him to be genuine, God-fearing, loving and will treasure my daughter."

Esther Wahome also addressed claims that the gospel industry is dead and why some artistes are ditching it for secular music. 

According to her, they were singing for people, not Christ.

"Being a gospel musician is knowing why you are there. I sometimes take year long breaks without singing, but I don’t decamp. A gospel musician sings for Jesus, not people."

Wahome has been in the industry for over 20 years and some of her songs like 'Kuna Dawa' are still relevant to people.

She said all her songs have different potential.

"They are like my children. They have different potential and preach differently. I consider all my songs hits because they reach other people at different times and in different situations. I have gone to countries that love other songs more than Kuna Dawa."
