Legendary Kenyan artist Julius Owino is without a doubt a caring father.
This can further be attested by the fact that the star has always been next to his new lover, Lilian Ng’ang’a, trying to help her with parenting.

Juliani’s soft side impressed most of his fans and a host of Kenyans who could not help but gush over him on end on the comments section of his post.
Many held Juliani seemed like an incredibly good dad who can do just about anything for his son.
Juliani’s latest move came hot on the heels of an online troll that kept him on the receiving end.
As earlier reported by The Kenya Times, some netizens threw shade on Juliani following a random demeaning post from a social media user known as Kababa.
Kababa, shared a side-by-side photo of former Machakos governor Alfred Mutua and Juliani, and claimed the latter and Lilian Ng’ang’a’s son will regret big time when he grows up.
According to Kababa, the son will wonder why his mum, dumped a rich man for a struggling musician, which is Juliani.
His sentiments were echoed by several people on social media.
While some felt Kababa had a point, others believed it was just a smear campaign aimed at embarrassing Juliani.
Well, being the man he is, Juliani responded to the attack by clarifying that indeed he is broke but not poor as earlier alleged by some netizens.
The musician, in his comeback “pleaded” with Kenyans to contribute money to help him to buy his son diapers since he is broke.
Juliani even shared a Paybill number through which well-wishers can channel their donations.

Kenyans received his response with mixed reactions.
People not close to his circle believed indeed he is broke and needed help.
However, others, like me who know him well, passed it as just one of Juliani’s ways to share his humorous side with Kenyans.
Well, broke or not, he has still been doing an exemplary job as far as parenting is concerned.
It should be noted Utheri is Juliani’s second child.
Juliani has an older daughter whom he sired with popular actress Brenda Wairimu.
Juliani and Brenda parted ways a couple of years ago but have been co-parenting their daughter.
