Embarambamba explains why he doesn’t know how old his children are

3 mins read

Controversial musician Chris Embarambamba has surprised his fans as he revealed that he does not know the ages of his children.

Embarambamba, who was speaking during an interview on a local radio station, revealed that he is the father of 5 children but he does not know how old any of his kids are.

The controversial singer claimed that he is not bothered by his children’s ages because his work is just to impregnate his wife.

“I am married, I have 5 children and one wife. I did it just for fun and I found myself with 5 children and one wife named Vane Embarambamba. He is the one who washes the clothes that you see with mud,” Embarambamba said.

“My first child, I don’t even know his age, but I only know where he has reached academically. He joined form one. But I don’t know the ages, you know I was just producing, I don’t know the ages. The last one, I don’t know if it’s 4 years or I don’t think it’s 3 years,” he added.

Embarambamba defended himself saying that he has spent a lot of time spreading the ‘gospel’ and thus he has not had much time to spend with his children like his wife spends with them.

“You know I haven’t spent much time with these children. It’s pregnancy and then I go to the gospel, in this work of Almighty God you can’t stay at home for too long. I work for God and I also work for myself because there is no supermarket up there [in heaven] and no angel comes down every week to bring us food, we are the ones who send ourselves when we preach the gospel, to earn income and return donations to the church,” he explained.

Embarambamba defended his style of spreading the gospel which has been criticized as dangerous to his life and the people around him.

“Just as I started to spread this gospel, I started to spread it using humor, that is, when I sing God’s songs, I have to put two or three things on you so that you laugh. You know even God wants entertainment,” Embarambamba explained.
