Alex Mwakideu has sent a message to men on cultural practices following a discussion involving Mulamwah’s child, raising questions about family traditions and early communication.
On Tuesday, January 6, 2025, he questioned the situation publicly, asking, “Hii mambo ya Mulamwah ni ukweli?” as he addressed claims shared about the child’s wellbeing.
He explained that the former girlfriend of Mulamwah spoke about an incident where the child allegedly cried for an extended period.
“Najua kumekua na kisa pale mtandaoni,” Alex said, adding that the child was said to be crying for two weeks.
He stated, “Hali, hanywi, halali, mtoto wa Mulamwah hana raha,” to describe the claims made.
According to Alex, the former girlfriend decided to take action after observing the situation. He said she chose to return the child to Mulamwah’s home.
“Akasema acha nimrudishe mtoto kwao nyumbani,” he explained, noting that the decision was carried out.
Alex stated that once the child arrived at Mulamwah’s home, a noticeable change was evident.
“Alipofika nyumbani pale kwa kina Mulamwah, yule mtoto akatulia kabisa,” he said. He added that Mulamwah later shared a post showing the child playing and appearing happy.
Cultural angle
Alex said the situation suggested the child had missed his biological father.
“Ikaonekana kuwa mtoto alikua ame miss baba yake mzazi, Mulamwah,” he explained. He used this moment to speak directly to men about responsibility and cultural understanding.
“So wanaume mumeombwa,” Alex said, calling on men to start important conversations early.
He urged them to explain such matters to young women before they become pregnant.
“Mwanze kuwaambia watoto wa kike hizi vitu na mapema kabla ya kuwapachika mimba,” he added.
He said young women had approached him with concerns tied to cultural practices.
“Watoto wa kike wameomba,” Alex stated, explaining that some traditions involve children falling ill without clear medical reasons. He described claims where a child cries for weeks, is taken to the hospital, and no illness is found.
According to Alex, some believe the child must return home to perform a cultural act.
He said, “Kumbe anatakikana aende akanyage mchanga ya kwao,” highlighting how such beliefs are understood in some communities.
Alex concluded by saying the message was shared because he was asked to speak.
“Watoto wa kike wameniambia nikuje niseme na linitoke,” he said, stressing that the discussion was meant to raise awareness about cultural practices and responsibility.
