Owami

Written by chitty from the blog Owami on 16 Oct 2007

There is a new young celebrity making almost every sunday paper lately. What is amazing about this celebrity is the fact that she may not be aware of this newly acquired status. Why is everyone writing about Owami Mafokate? Dont other celebrities have kids as well? When Queen shows the public her punani,Owami's name comes up. Owami must not see this, Owami must not see that. When Chomi peforms and takes a break, the attention is drawn to her taking a break to feed Owami. When Arthur paints a good picture of himself as a good father and queen as a bad mother, he mentions how Owami needs this and not that. When he shoots music videos, Owami is there. How old is this Owami by the way? Her place is at school, not at some function in Soweto watching her mamc'ani sika lekhekhe her asserts off. Is this done to get back at Queen for supposedly being a bad mother? What is chommee's business playing mommy to Queen's child? What is King Arthur tryng to prove? Should Owami really be part of this? I mean come on people, so many celebs have children, so many celebs go through divorce and yes so many celebs love and respect their children enough to allow them them their personal right to privacy and to grow-up as nothing but simply-children. Let children be. Keep Owami at home please. Now with her mommy tryng anything in the book to market her-self, you never know. Owami might just bump into her on one of the many functions.

good one, very thought provoking - just next time, please break up your blogs into paragraphs, it'll make it easier to read.

and yeah, Arthur pimps his child a bit too much, and the press don't help by merrily slapping the poor child's pics everywhere....

No comment.

On 2nd thoughts whats up with Arthur really? Does he think he is the 1st '"celebrity" to have a daughter. Geez I dont like that man.

He must just give Owami to Queen and yena noChommee make their own baby, its not fair.

The sad part about the whole is that Owami is not his only child but she's all that Daddy Aurthur speaks about.Ke tsona dilo ts di etsang beef amongst bana ba motho.

Does Owami go to crech or day care????????????

U hit it on the nail Chitty sana I've been asking myself those same questions! y is this child @ the SAMAs, in sexy music videos with those dancers? I mean what do they talk about when that child is there? Certainly not about Barney!!!

Nah Nah
16 Oct 2007 03:35

Lady D u'r so rite my dear, i believe Owami is not the only child Authur has, what abt the other one /s? is it b'cos their mom's are not in lime lite? & imagine how these kids are gon behave towards each other knowing that Daddy's favorite is Owami, that surely is goin to sow a seed of hatred amongst each other.

There's nothing rong with lovin ur child but Mr Authur is overdoing it & doin it rong futhi, I dont know wether he makes more money by doin that ngomntanakhe, or maybe he is tryina send a massage that he is a good father but to me placading ur kid in the media is not doin or showin any love for them.

Entlek u Authur no Chomme bajola or what? cos i saw them kweza O awards u chomme eyi pesi ka Authur, whattagoan ngala 2 some serious???

Nice one chitty, the story of Owami is really sad.............I really wish that she could lead a normal life and her parents Arhtur & Queen must grow up with the child because they are both too childish.

16 Oct 2007 03:57

@Spice you're exaggerating a bit there. The tot is cute considering his parents aren't the best looking folks one could have.

@Mabhebeza try googling the name Khanukani Mthembu, I'm sure you'll find her picture because she was on the cover of drum a while back with her mother

Khanukani means "be quenched". You know when you drink water to quench your thirst. She probably gave her the name to pass the message to someone or some people.......

I really used to admire u-Arthur 4 loving umntan' akhe but then it got too much. I believe that kids should be allowed to be just kids. While he's busy taking the poor child to ama video shoots or some award ceremony, somebody should be reading her a bed time story or watching the Cartoon Network. I won't be suprised if he releases an album for the child, i can c it coming.

lol @ Lady D...what's the difference? between creche and day care? or do u mean creche ya ko lekeishini and day care as in like multi racial creche? hi hi hi

Amazing
16 Oct 2007 04:14

@nonzuzo doesn't the name Khanukani mean Ukuhlalela? E.g ndiKhanuka iBanana. Meaning u feel like eating a banana.

The other Zulu bloggers need to help here, My Zulu is not up to scratch. Which is a disgrace considering I'm half zulu(dad) and half Xhosa(mom).

Amazing
16 Oct 2007 04:16

TYPO ALERT I meant to say ukurhalela

Nah Nah
16 Oct 2007 04:20

My understanding of the word Khanukani according to my language means "Rhalelani" meaning Envy ......... as in ndi Khanuka amanzi translated to ndi rhalela amanzi.........

Even still ke this name could mean u Khanyi was saying people must Envy her.......
watever the case maybe though i would love to see how her child looks....

Anyone got a pic of Khanu????????

spice
16 Oct 2007 04:25

Who the hell is tshepiso and what the hell is she/he/shim on about ?every normal parent would neva I mean neva subject their child to such a trashy life, every child deserves to be raised under a safe loving enviroment if this was not the case evry schelb would be dragging their child/ren to bashes and concernt so because they care and luuv they kids they don't do that i guess our friend the king of kwaito is not intelligent t enough to see that what he is giving his daughter is not love
How learned is Authur BTW?

well need I say More!!! I also once admired Arthur's love for his child that I named my child after her (Owami) only as a second name though!!!

But now uyandicherha finish!! and the fact that uChomee wants to act as uMamomncane to the kid is even worse,, How old is she anyway??? (Chomee)

I say uQueen needs to fight for custody, but first bloggers lets buy her CD so she can afford a good lawyer,,

16 Oct 2007 04:41

Oh guys i've just been corrected my nzule collegues. Yes the name means "to long for something" HEHEHEHE sorry guys.

@ my name
Yeah im sure that even Owam is gatvol now of all this sh*******t. I wonda if do they give a poor child a chance to play with other kids or shez always with her DAD and step mom (Chomee) attending events.

As for Chomee being a virgin... well i wudnt be sure abt that one coz a virgin doesnt behave like her, take her dance moves for example.

I dont see anything wrong with what Mafokate is doing, he is a proud father and thats all. Owami is young and curious and its not wrong for Arthur to spoil his child. Brenda Fassie had documentaries where Bongani Fassie was filmed, she had him in her videos when he was liek 6 yrs old. Zola & some other stars on the song "ulwandle" show off their kids and know one complains but when Arthur does it its wrong. Lesego Arthur's other child is not leaving with him thats why he doesnt spend 2 much time with him, but he is also not ashamed to show her off. Owami doesnt have umama so arthur is playing botth the roles so give the poor guy a chance. I also beleiev that its better that he shows Owami off in his videos rather than using other kids, whose mama will come & claim dat uArthur "exploited our kids". As for Chomme spending time with Owami, owami is a girl and she needs a mother figure and chomee for a young girl that she is i think she is doing a great job.

16 Oct 2007 05:32

Hello guys... as the zuluprincess let me help. Khanukani means to want someone's else 's thingi... like when we were kids u had a sweetie & didnt want to share it with someone, u will say "uyarhala". its as Nah Nah said

But in this case I think, the name is telling some people ...bt how can u name a child such, becuase names do follow people hey

andi01
16 Oct 2007 05:38

Khanukani- means crave or envy

16 Oct 2007 05:46

@ andi01

Authur is overdoing this whole thing.... i mean week in and week out its always Owam this... Owam that....everywhere in the media.
Yes its okay to show case ur child to the public bt Auther is overdoing it, PERIOD!

fosho
16 Oct 2007 05:56

Well Pips in Arthur's production He test Drive all His cars. Meaning Now he is still with Chomee and when he discovers another lady, He's gonna be with her.

@ Mayo:How old is she anyway??? (Chomee) She's been 22 for the past 3 yrs so not sure!

iyoooo @and01 they always says if you have a GIRL always expert she will dada little girl,thanks for the topic,Authur he thinks if he do Owam this....Owam that,he thinks he is a good father,me n my husband we have a same problem,he always defend her kid 24/7even today.so we dont talk to each other,we talk about somebody who change a pads every f***** mnths.my baby this .... my baby that,so i think im tired.bcz step kids they endup killing their stepmom for nothing,u work hard.n save hard at the end you dont get respect,pls if you hate your father"s wife where he will b.girlfriend they come n take money n go,Dont you think somebody save your DAD for going to prostitude?I think Aurthur must open his eyes for the sake of Owami,this kid she must b independent,she must cry to go n play with other kids ,not to dance with chomi ,if he go on with this ,OWAMI she will end up in studio at the early age ,4geting that the is A.B.C,guys do you still remember the story of BLaCK MAMBAZO,my son this.my son that.......,son end up..........stepmom.SO AUTHUR is digging his own grave PERIOD, nge kwatile.thanx SHUGA when we talk about.somebody to talk too,we talk about SHUGA N TVSA.you make my day

16 Oct 2007 06:41

Of course people will say he is doing it bcoz its Arthur, look @ yvonne chaka chaka's son he even uses his mama surname bcoz papa aint famous enough. is any1 complaining about dat, no but when ingu Arthur all hell breaks loose. As for yena siking Chomee's lekhekhe there's nothing wrong there chomee is old enough and can make her own decisions if she wants Arthur then thats it.

spice
16 Oct 2007 06:48

And Andi I beg to disagree with you,you see having your child in a music video is one thing but taking your child to each and evry gig, @ nite nogal it's another story what he is doing is robing his daughter of her childhood take fro example many celebrity couples have got kids but do we know them ?NO ......why?.....because they are protecting them from the ugly world of the media ,evry one knows that being in the public'eye is not easy,it's cut a cut throat enviroment so it's up to you as a parent to by all means protect your child from that
So Arthur "clown of kwaito "Makafokofe must get it through his thick skull that owami needs to be normal like any other child

Gucci
16 Oct 2007 06:50

I am very sorry to say that Arthur is orverdoing it qha! Owam is still a baby to be surrounded by people who smoke,drink and dance like Prostitutes. She is going to grow up thinking that doing those things is cool. It aint cool and it will never be.Klaar!

Guys lets just rate him out of 10 I will give him 1 cause he is the worst I ever seen tjo making your baby to have a stepmother like Chomme its like exposing your child to the porn movies in a younger stage, so damaging her little mind tjo nana u ll pray to God ukuthi "umama kho ukuzaleleni yona lemihlolo"!!!
