Aside from that, the Baba Lao singer has time and again been making headlines with baby mama drama as well.

Eric Omondi

Eric has been the talk of the town in many occasions, the first was a message saying that he was parting ways with girlfriend Chantal. Most people interpreted it as a break up but it was not until a few weeks ago when the comedian said she had gone back to school.
