• The artist had a rare opportunity to be with the child he shares with actress Caroline Muthoni, just days after admitting that he hadn't seen her in a long time.

Kenyan comedian David Oyando, popularly known as Mulamwah, couldn't contain his joy when he got to spend time with his daughter, Keilah Oyando, on Sunday.

The artist had a rare opportunity to be with the child he shares with actress Caroline Muthoni, just days after admitting that he hadn't seen her in a long time.

Mulamwah shared lovely photos and videos of him spending time with his three-year-old daughter, accompanied by heart emojis to express his love.

In one of the videos he posted, Mulamwah was seen playing with his daughter and showing her how to put on makeup.

Keilah was born in September 2021, just a few months before the comedian and his co-parent announced their separation. However, the two had already split up several months before the beautiful girl was born.

In a post last month, Mulamwah claimed that the last time he saw his daughter was when she was just four months old.

"There's no need to go to Jeff and say 'Mulamwah has a good relationship with his daughter.' There is no relationship... I haven't seen my daughter. The last time I saw her, she was four months old. Don't cover up the truth," Mulamwah said.

The comedian added that he is ready to make amends. "You've sent me letters wanting the child to be placed under the custody of one parent only, but out here I'm being called an irresponsible father. There’s a lot. Unless we all make things easier, everything will pass... I'll drive to their place, I haven't been there in many years. If you see me with the child, know that things are okay; if not..." he said.

Recently, Mulamwah also revealed why he made the statement disowning his daughter with Carrol Sonie a few years ago.

Speaking in a video posted on Ruth K's YouTube channel, the 31-year-old comedian claimed that he took that step due to immense pressure that was building up in his life.

He said the pressure started increasing following his co-parent’s posts and interviews she did after they announced their separation.

"I began getting angry and started responding by posting things I shouldn’t have posted. I believe God held me back; I didn’t post everything. I’ve held onto a lot of things that, if said, would negatively affect other people’s lives or be taken the wrong way," Mulamwah said.

The father of three claimed that he wanted people to stop associating him with the things his co-parent was posting or talking about in interviews.

"When I posted that, I wanted to stay out of this story so that when you (Carrol) go for another interview, you talk about your child without involving me. That was my idea; after that, things started piling up," he said.
