Comedian Prof. Hamo has been at the center of controversy in recent weeks following allegations that he is a deadbeat dad.
However, in a statement, Prof. Hamo has denied the allegations, stating that he has been providing for his children despite not living with them.
Prof. Hamo, a comedian and radio presenter, admitted to having children who do not live with him, but claimed that he has been providing for their upkeep through his wife.
‘I have children who live with me and others who don’t live with me. I have been providing for my children from day one and there’s no day they went without food or shelter or anything they need. My wife is the one who sends upkeep for the children who don’t live with us. This has been the agreement between my family and the mother of the children,’ he said.
Prof. Hamo also condemned the mother of his children, Stella Bonei, also known as Jemutai, for exposing their private affairs online, which he claims has put their children in a difficult situation.
‘I believe children deserve a quiet growing atmosphere, and it’s inhuman to expose them to ridicule from their friends in school and elsewhere by splashing their photos or their stories online. In this regard, I wish to continue protecting my children by safeguarding their privacy and not engaging in any mudslinging,’ he said.
