Coastal-based musician Nyota Ndogo has joyfully announced the birth of her son, sharing a heartwarming photo of the newborn shortly after his arrival.

The celebrated artist, who had previously revealed her pregnancy, unveiled her son’s name and reflected on his unique features, expressing both delight and apprehension amidst societal expectations.

In an endearing social media post, Nyota Ndogo welcomed her newborn son, Abdalla, into the world, expressing love and trepidation over his appearance.

Despite her excitement, she confessed a fear of being labeled a cheat due to her son’s complexion, which she humorously attributed to his preference for inheriting his father’s silky hair.

“Karibu nyumbani mwanangu… Ila hii rangi sinitaambiwa nimechiti… yani umeamua nywele ndio uchukue ya baba rangi ndio hii yetu,” Nyota affectionately penned.

(Welcome home my child… But this color, they will say I cheated on my husband… I mean, you’ve decided to take after your father’s hair but this color is ours.)

Nyota Ndogo’s union with her Danish husband, Henning Nielsen, has often been scrutinised, given their noticeable age gap.
