“Unatafutia mtoto pneumonia”- Kenyans react to Bahati’s photo swimming with newborn daughter Malaika

The first need of every newborn is to feel the warm embrace of a parent’s love and care for them.

Kevin Bahati has expressed his fatherly love towards his newborn daughter, Malaika Bahati.

The musician has shared adorable photos as he spends quality time with his third child.

The Kenyan artiste tenderly held his newborn baby as he bonded with her in a swimming pool.

He captioned the photo:

“Daddy n’ Daughter Bonding.”

To Bahati, this was good gesture as it showed fatherly love, but according to a section of netizens this was dangerous to the young toddler.

Many commented arguing that placing the baby in swimming pool water would cause her infections like pneumonia.
