Veteran gospel singer Daddy Owen has found himself at the centre of social media attention. A circulating screenshot allegedly from a forex trader known as Cool Kid recently claimed to have "exposed" the musician online.
The allegations involve claims that the singer attempted to contact the trader's girlfriend via social media.
The TikTok Allegation
The drama began when the content from the screenshot was made public, regarding the fore trader’s partner’s TikTok account. He alleged that he logged into the account and discovered a direct message request.
According to the trader, the request came from an account bearing the name of the well-known gospel artist.
This "exposure" quickly moved beyond TikTok. The news reached a wider audience when it was shared by the Nairobi Gossip Club. This platform is known for highlighting trending stories and celebrity drama. The post sparked a heavy online debate among fans and critics alike.
As the story spread, social media users began to tease the singer. Many questioned the nature of the alleged "moves" made by the musician. The public reaction was a mix of curiosity and lighthearted mockery.
Despite the potential for controversy, Daddy Owen did not issue a stern legal denial. Instead, he chose to lean into the amusement. He began playfully interacting with people who were teasing him in his comment sections.
This approach turned a potential scandal into a moment of online banter.
The Instagram Clapback
The singer’s sense of humour was on full display during a recent exchange on his Instagram post. A follower, using the handle rozana_diamor, decided to poke fun at the situation.
She posted a comment referencing the viral claims.
Her comment, written in a mix of Swahili and English, translates to a question about him messaging other people's women. She wrote, "Ati unadm madem wa wenyewe 😂." The comment quickly drew attention from other users following the saga.
Daddy Owen’s reply was short and direct. He did not deny the interaction but instead questioned the premise of the joke. He replied, "kuna dem wa wenyewe tena 😆." This response translates roughly to asking if there is even such a thing as "someone's woman" anymore.
The interaction has continued to fuel discussion. At the time of the recording, the comments from both the user and the singer had already begun to garner likes and engagement. Owen’s decision to use a laughing emoji suggested he was not taking the "exposure" seriously.
The veteran musician’s lighthearted reaction has largely shifted the tone of the conversation. While some users continue to debate the original claims made by Cool Kid, many others have been entertained by the singer's refusal to be defensive.
For now, Daddy Owen seems happy to trade jokes with his followers as the story continues to circulate.
