Daddy Owen wants his brother Rufftone to Run for Senate Seat: He helped Jubilee win 2013 and 2017 elections

Gospel singer Owen Mwatia aka Daddy Owen has opened up about his brother Roy Smith Mwatia(Rufftone) interests in politics.

Owen believes he’s brother should become a politician and vie for Senator of Kakamega County because he’ll definitely win.

“He is always affiliated with politics. He helped Jubilee win the 2013 and 2017 elections.

“I always urge him to join but he always says he wants to watch from the sidelines. If I was to advise him, I would tell him to vie for senator in Kakamega. If Jaguar did it, so can he,” said Owen.

Owen added that his brother is a man of his words and he can lead better than many politicians.

“If you are a sober leader, it does not matter what field you come from. There is nowhere it is written that a leader should come from this or that field,” he told Word Is.

“Look at the leaders we have. Some of them are lawyers, doctors, teachers, etc. If you are a good person, you are a good person regardless of your field. But if you are a bad person, nothing can change that.”

Rufftone however, said that he’s not focused so much on becoming a politician.

“Does it mean that when someone walks with politicians it is automatic they will join politics?” Rufftone posed.

“I happen to have political friends and when I believe in their vision, I support them. Does it mean that when I go for coffee with you, I want to be a media person? I support my friends, I am a loyal friend and I put my mouth where my heart is,” he added.

Well, the family man has been able to create a strong bond with his children, especially with his first son, who is way already in school.

It is with humility that he conducts his fatherly role to his children, who he reveals teach him couple lessons every passing day, in a way he just blends in.

Also though, it is after being a parent, that you finally see the light to some of the things that left you in the dark while still a kid, he cites.

He shares:

Fatherhood is okay. Every day I learn something new from the kids. You know being a parent helps one understand better the struggles our parents went through when we were young. Being a father also makes one understand things they could not understand before. I always drop my son to school every morning, despite the fact the school offers an option where one can pay for transport when paying school fees.

Already well versed with the current age and time of technology, he decides to take a different approach in the way he brings up his kids.

Technology has taken over. Instead of them spending all their time in the house playing video games, we take long drives. That’s one way for us to bond and know what’s going on in his life. It’s very important to me. On weekends we also take long drives alone.

The ‘Vanity’ hit maker and his wife, welcomed their second son in July 2018 through God’s grace.
